Dynaudio upgrade?

[AdamD]

OK... I don't have Dynaudio but I am finding there isn't sufficient bass so I am looking at options for a sub without going over the top...

Suggest you post in the VW Car Audio and Electronics subforum - you'll get plenty of useful responses there.

Looks interesting Andrew you might find that upgrading the front and rear speakers and a amp will also do the job without the need of a subwoofer. Give Marty at FHRX a call he can recommend a solution to your budget. He knows VAG cars inside out.

Thanks Kev
Although I think the front / rear and amp will be substantially more than the cost of this sub...I will see what comes from posting in the Audio section... Thanks AdamD

Guys I just bought a Scirocco and the deal I got was for the car on the floor - no Dynaudio system fitted. Question is - can it be retrofitted/upgraded? I assumed yes but now think thats incorrect damn it.

I have Dynaudio equipment in my home and it is by far and away some of the finest audio gear around, would love to have it in the car.

Thanks mate I contacted him but wow...pricey. Im going with Focal/Alpine system via a Melbourne dealer - should come up ok.

get it its always a selling feature when you get rid of the car. your buyer will probably be in his or her 20s and a good audio system sets your car apart from others on the market. bring back the bass i say ....lol

for $1000 its good value and covered by full vw warranty

As factory option i think the dyn system is both a decent upgrade, a no hassle choice and good value.

A focal system will lift your listening enjoyment no doubt.

Has anyone upgraded their stereo? if so with what, who and how much?

I got the sunroof and satnav, but no Dynaudio... now with 8000km on the clock im looking to improve the quality...and bass

If I was upgrading I'd be looking at Focal. I think a few of us on here have gone down that route.

Thanks, I have had a look at their site. I guess I'm being even more needy than that though!

ie

1) The standard model has how many speakers (which is what I will have)
2) What size are they, should it just be a same size, same place but replace with better brand/components?
3) throw in a small sub some where
4) small sub under the seat/boot
5) done?
6) bonus question..Melbourne Installer that someone recommends?

something like
IFVW GOLF 6 KIT $559 | Focal Car Audio Australia ?

For those interested, it appears that a UK forum has a great write up on upgrading speakers

These are thought to be a quick simple upgrade and most are happy with the results

I found that it tends to distort on certain types of bass when its up high? not exactly what I had expected!!
