πŸ”₯ Mercedes-Benz GLC 63S AMG 2022 | Full Sound System Overhaul With JL Audio & MATCH DSP πŸ”₯

We recently completed a full audio transformation on a Mercedes-Benz GLC 63S AMG 2022. From its factory Burmester system to a high-performance setup with MATCH DSP, STEG speakers, and JL Audio subwoofer, this AMG now sounds as powerful as it drives.

πŸ”₯ Mercedes-Benz GLC 63S AMG 2022 | Full Sound System Overhaul With JL Audio & MATCH DSP πŸ”₯

At MC Audio, we believe every high-performance car deserves an equally powerful audio experience. That’s why when a client brought in their 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLC 63S AMG looking to upgrade the factory Burmester system, we knew exactly what to do.

While the Burmester badge carries weight, many Mercedes owners quickly realise that it doesn’t always deliver the depth, clarity or punch they expectβ€”especially for true audiophiles and performance enthusiasts.

Our mission: turn this GLC 63S into a rolling concert hall, all while preserving its factory look and feel. πŸ’ΌπŸ”§

🎧 Original Setup: Burmester System, But Lacking Soul

The factory system included multiple midrange speakers, tweeters and underseat woofers, all controlled by the OEM head unit and Burmester amplifier. While it sounds β€œok” for most people, the system lacked:

  • πŸ”‡ Deep and responsive bass
  • 🎯 Soundstage clarity
  • 🎼 Musical detail at high volume
  • ⚑ Amplifier power and tuning flexibility

This is especially noticeable in performance cars like the GLC 63S AMG, where sound should match the roar of the engine. Our client wanted more immersion, more presence, and cleaner tuning.

πŸ’‘ The Solution: MATCH, STEG & JL Audio Integration

After a thorough inspection and consultation, we proposed a hybrid OEM+ system that delivers premium audio performance while keeping the installation fully reversible and non-invasive.

Here’s what we installed:


πŸ”Š Amplification & Tuning

βœ… MATCH UP 10DSP Amplifier
Designed specifically for Mercedes with Burmester or Harman Kardon, this amplifier is the brain of the system. It provides:

  • 8 channels of DSP control
  • High-resolution tuning
  • OEM interface with plug-and-play T-harness (MBUX compatible)

With this unit, we could fine-tune the frequency response, adjust time alignment and create an immersive, centred soundstage for the driver.

🎢 Speaker Upgrade

  • βœ… Front Stage: STEG BZ40AII 4" Component Speakers (Mid + Tweeter combo)
  • βœ… Rear Fill: STEG BZ40DII 4" Coaxial Speakers
  • βœ… Centre Channel: MATCH UP S4MB-CTR 4" Speaker (Mounted behind OEM grille)

These speakers offer clean midrange, crystal-clear highs and enhanced detail, especially in vocals and instruments.

πŸ”‰ Bass Reinforcement

βœ… Underseat Bass: STEG BZW80 R+L 8" Premium Subwoofers (Factory Location, 2Ξ© impedance)

βœ… Dedicated Boot Subwoofer:

  • JL AUDIO ACP108LG-W3V3 8" Active Vented Subwoofer (250W RMS)
  • JL AUDIO RBC-1 Subwoofer Remote Level Controller

The JL sub brought in tight, deep bass that complemented the STEG underseat woofers, perfect for EDM, hip hop, jazz or cinematic scores.

Factory-style wiring and fuse holder installation

πŸ”Œ Wiring & Accessories

We used high-quality accessories to ensure safety, signal integrity, and durability:

  • MATCH PP-PAC 80 T-Harness for 2017+ Mercedes MBUX
  • AUDIO SYSTEM RCA and pre-twisted speaker cables
  • AERPRO mini ANL fuse holders
  • Custom ISO harnesses for full OEM integration
  • Extra-length OFC power and ground cables for the amplifier and subwoofer

All wiring was routed discreetly using factory channelsβ€”no cutting, no visible mods, and no risk to vehicle electronics.
