Focal IS MBZ 100 V2 | Mercedes-Benz Component Speaker Upgrade
Vehicle-specific Flax component speakers for selected later-generation Mercedes-Benz locations.
Natural, Detailed Sound for Compatible Mercedes-Benz Vehicles
The Focal IS MBZ 100 V2 combines compact 100mm Flax-cone midrange drivers with separate aluminium inverted-dome tweeters. It improves vocal clarity, tonal texture and front soundstage definition while retaining selected original Mercedes-Benz locations.
Mercedes-Benz Factory Audio Compatibility
Compatible with selected Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with Standard or Burmester audio systems where specifically listed. Compatibility varies by model, production year, market, speaker position and factory audio configuration. Please refer to the Compatibility Guide or contact your nearest Authorised Focal Australia Dealer to confirm compatibility.
Selected Standard and Burmester vehicles may support the speakers, but compatibility is position-specific. Burmester systems can use active filtering, factory equalisation and different channel allocation, so speaker replacement and amplifier integration must be assessed separately.
2-Way Component Speaker Design
The IS MBZ 100 V2 installs its woofer and tweeter in separate compatible factory locations. The woofer reproduces midrange and upper-bass information, while the separate tweeter handles high-frequency detail. This arrangement improves soundstage height, width and vocal placement.
100mm Flax Sandwich-Cone Drivers
The natural flax-fibre core is enclosed between glass-fibre layers to balance rigidity, lightness and damping. Voices, strings and acoustic instruments gain a controlled and natural presentation.
Separate Aluminium Inverted-Dome Tweeters
The separate aluminium tweeters provide rapid response and broad dispersion. Compatible upper mounting positions help raise the soundstage and improve vocal and instrument placement.
Sound Performance and Bass Response
The IS MBZ 100 V2 begins its published response at approximately 150Hz and is primarily a midrange and treble upgrade. Compatible Mercedes-Benz woofers should reproduce the lower frequencies.

Compatible Applications
The IS MBZ 100 V2 is listed for selected later C-Class, CLE, E-Class, CLS, EQE, EQS and GLC applications. The exact front, rear or supplementary position varies by chassis code.
Build a Complete Focal Inside Audio System
A complete system may combine IS MBZ 100 V2, IC MBZ 100 V2, ICC MBZ 100 and the correct left-hand-drive or right-hand-drive ISUB MBZ 2 V2 woofers.
Preserve the Original Interior
Once installed in a confirmed application, the IS MBZ 100 V2 remains concealed behind compatible original Mercedes-Benz trim and factory grilles. The dashboard, doors and factory controls retain their original appearance, and the installation can remain substantially reversible when original wiring and trim are preserved.
Professional Installation Recommended
Professional installation of the IS MBZ 100 V2 is recommended. The installer must confirm the exact speaker position, mounting depth, connector, polarity, acoustic sealing and clearance from windows or surrounding trim. An Authorised Focal Australia Dealer can also verify the Mercedes-Benz factory audio system before installation.
Confirm Compatibility Before Purchasing
Compatible with selected Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with Standard or Burmester audio systems where specifically listed.
