Hi Vincent

thanks for the awsome write-up. Do the steering wheel mounted buttons work for the BT.


A bit off topic.... Have you had to drive the Tig on any Snow/ice covered roads yet? Saw your pics of the roof racks with the snow in the back ground, just wondering how it went.

Matt - Hi

Have not tried that yet with the BT - will experiment.

Heading back down to Alpenhorn in Thredbo tomorrow so if it snows while we are driving....will let you know - there is great snow down in Thredbo now.

cheers

fitting new tweeters

Hi

Simple photos showing how new tweeters can be fitted..the size difference gives you some idea of the possible quality diff between the standard Blaupunkt and the new !

Yeh looks good, I know the importer of the Hertz stuff personally and I had it in my Ba wagon and it sounded fantastic for what I paid ! I actually made money on my stuff when I resold it hahah

Hi Vincent,

Can you please let me know how much did you paid.

[vincent]

the cost

a bit complex...

it included ..the sound deadening..installing the AVC 9000-1...the speakers ..the speakers install...and installing the camera & its wiring....all up the cost was about $1600 plus gst. I supplied the AVC and the camera. I have an approx split of the costs somewhere and will post it when I find it again.

cheers Vincent

it included ..the AVC 9000-1...the speakers ..

hey Vincent, have you thought about adding an amp to your system? Even a $300-$400 100wrms/channel amp would totally transform the sound. The stock head unit would be lucky to put out 20w a channel (regardless of what it claims) and those beautiful hertz speakers really need some juice behind them to perform to the level of sound quality they are capable of.

...and you don't want that head unit clipping and blowing those speakers!

HI thanks - maybe one day .....well I am no longer running the head stock unit.. but the better powered AVC 9000-1 - not the same as adding an amp but a step up...

cheers
