Each seat features a wireless 7-speaker surround sound system, powered by a built-in multi-processor and 650 watt amplifier. The system allows you to fine tune it to hear sound the way you like. BodySound technology will then automatically adjust the volume to match your settings. The built-in speaker system also produces vibrations throughout the seating area, which you can also customize with how much or how little you want to feel.Read more
