In anticipation of the arrival of the all-new Nissan Armada, launching as a 2025 model, the company released details of its audio system.

The automaker says a Klipsch Premiere Audio System is standard on the full-size SUV. It was developed in collaboration with Panasonic Automotive Systems Company of America.

“Klipsch is an aspirational brand in the consumer market and this new project for the all-new Nissan Armada is a significant statement,” said Mark Casavant, senior vice president, Klipsch Premium Audio Group, in a news release. “Collaborating with Panasonic Automotive and Nissan has brought out the best of our aligned abilities to achieve a new level of audio performance for Nissan and the full-size SUV vehicle segment.”

The 12-speaker system is described as delivering accurate, authentic, audiophile-quality sound throughout the cabin.

Here are some system details as provided by Nissan:

  • One-inch titanium tweeters provide extended high high-frequency response, enhanced clarity and transparency through a design inspired by the audiophile-quality Klipsch consumer product line
  • High-power, high-excursion, 6×9-inch mid-bass drivers located in the front doors deliver stunning dynamics
  • Panasonic’s proprietary DJX Surround algorithm to create an immersive sound experience throughout the cabin, placing the listeners in the centre of the performance without compromising fidelity or accuracy
  • Eight-inch DualPower subwoofer with high excursion design provides ultra-low frequency extension
  • The system is powered by a 12-channel amplifier with 1 GHz digital signal processor with precision processing dual-core system on chip architecture maximizing both power and control and delivering 600 watts of system power.
  • Unique user interface elements express the new direction for Nissan and convey the audiophile-level performance and immersive attributes of the Klipsch Premium Audio System, including an embedded “Demo Mode” delivering a curated audiovisual experience within the cabin of the all-new Armada.

“The all-new 2025 Armada elevates the full-size SUV segment with the best of Nissan design, craftsmanship and intuitive technology,” said Scott Shirley, vice president, chief marketing manager and marketing operations, Nissan U.S., in the release “The Klipsch Reference Premium Audio System is one of many advanced new features for Armada that demonstrate how we leverage the latest technology to elevate the ownership experience and deliver a better experience with every drive.”

The Armada will go on sale in late 2024 and Canadian pricing will be announced closer to that date.
