Bentley announces new pinnacle audio system

18 Mar Bentley announces new pinnacle audio system

(Oilandgaspress) – Bentley today introduces its pinnacle in-car audio system – Naim for Mulliner – across a dedicated series of cars built around it. The Virtuoso Collection is an exclusive series of cars featuring the Naim for Mulliner system combined with refined materials, unique embroidery, and Champagne Gold detailing inspired by high‑end musical craftsmanship. Originally created for the coachbuilt Batur, with an option cost of £25,000 (excluding taxes) the Naim for Mulliner system has now been developed for this collection to deliver Bentley’s most immersive audio experience to date.

Available across the Continental GT, Continental GTC and Bentayga, the Virtuoso Collection is offered in three curated themes – Soprano, Tenor and Bass – ranging from serene, light interiors to darker, more dramatic specifications with deep textures and rich tonal contrasts.

The unique ‘Naim for Mulliner’ system for the Virtuoso Collection uses eighteen speakers, plus two upgraded drivers (originally developed for Batur), ensuring remarkable fidelity and enhanced frequency response, yet no loss of detail.

Working closely with Dolby Laboratories, music is brought to life through the integration of Dolby Atmos. With Dolby Atmos, sound moves freely in a multi-dimensional space with remarkable clarity and depth, delivering a truly immersive audio experience with clearly defined layers that place the listener inside the music.

With the enhanced hardware, Bentley’s audio engineers also used Fraunhofer Symphoria to develop the sound stage for each particular car. Fraunhofer Symphoria is a high-quality rendering technology for two and three-dimensional surround sound in cars. It significantly improves the audio quality perceived throughout the cabin and passengers are able to enjoy a realistic audio experience with a broad, clearly defined sound stage and perfectly balanced surround sound.

To maintain a pure listening environment, soft Dinamica inserts have been strategically placed within the door panels to absorb unwanted frequencies and vibrations, ensuring the cabin remains serene and acoustically optimised.
