Retrofitting Dynaudio question

[Vexed]

I have been keeping an eye on the market for a used Dynaudio system to retrofit on my 2010 CC... Would a Dynaudio from a 2013-2014 CC work on my car?

The $1200 Soumatrix Xtase speakers that I bought a year and half ago turned to be rubbish...

I had a whole system up for a sale a few months back, I pulled that out of a 2011 and it all looks the same from what I can see.

You can also buy complete wiring harnesses from china new, original VW stuff

Ok, I have just bought it... thanks for the info.
What website can I get the wiring from?

Yep that's it, it's a bit of work to install. You will need to run the grey and green plugs under the carpet to the passenger seat area where the amp sits.

You'll also need to run some wires for the front mid range which is missing from the base sound system. The kit comes with the wiring so you should be right.

My mate was thinking about putting my old dynaudio set in his car but didn't end up going through with it, otherwise I would of been able to give you more info on the install.

Did you but the Dynaudio speakers form a CC? As they are tuned to the cabin of the car

You will love the dynaudio system, I always get compliments from others who listen to it. I personally think it sounds better then BMW's Logic7 Harmon Kardon and audi's B&O which I heard in a A4

Many thanks for info
Yes the speakers came out of a 2013-14 CC... I had a Logic 7 on a BMW and Mark Levinson on a Lexus, they both sound great. I have also checked B&O on a mate' S7 and it was amazing. I'm really looking forward to hear it on the CC
It is a shame you almost can't get the Dynaudio on a VW anymore... even on the Touareg, you can only get it on the V8 model.

Nice one, should be fine then.

I had the logic7 in a 5 series and 7 series and the dynaudio is much better.

VWA probably dropped it as even when they were offering it as a option, not many took it up. I think it was $2200 or $2700 but still worth it.

It would be a good idea to order a few door panel clips as some may break when doing the speaker installs

[Vexed]

I have that covered
By the way, I have noticed that the amp is a Panasonic. Would that matter with the harness?

[rjt86]

Hmm Im not sure that's the dynaudio amp unless they changed it in the later years. Do you have pics of the speakers?

I was also under the impression that the the amp is 10 channel which provides individual speaker amplification with a built in crossovers.

[Vexed]

That's the only picture I have got...


I have checked other Dynaudio amps, they are also 8 channel, but made my Blaupunkt

Thats a Golf Dynaudio amp.
Its actually the same amp as the stock 'VW Sound System' amp in the Passat. 250w.
Passat Dynaudio amp is 600w and made by Lear. Its 10 Channel.

[kamold]

What are the part numbers on the speakers?
Golf and Passat Dynaudio speakers have different part numbers as they have different impedence for the different amp.

I agree, that's not CC Dynaudio. Hopefully you didn't buy it already....

I've got some pics of the dynaudio gear from a CC which I'll post up soon for you to check out

[Vexed]

I have already purchased it, but I sent the guy an email to cancel... I'm really disappointed... I thought I have finally found a Dynaudio system to fit... The seller said it is a Dynaudio system for CC and Passat B7

Maybe he got his photos mixed up, CC Dynaudio looks like the below. That listing and amp part number defiantly isn't it.

Second pic is the amp part number
