Does anyone know how many watts per channel the stock sound system in a Passat puts out?
Also the brand and type of speakers?
Cheers

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

4 x 20WRMS from what I've read elsewhere.
The speakers are VW OEM made in the Czech Republic and are a split configuration, with midbass drivers in the lower doors and a tweeter up higher on the doors. -
OK, thanksComment

No problem!Originally posted by hulbyw View Post
I'm about to go down the path of adding a Kicker KEY 200.4 Class D DSP amp (4 x 50WRMS) to my standard head unit and speakers, along with sound deadening of the door panels etc. The KEY 200.4 includes a measurement mic and applies time alignment and EQ to improve sound quality, so it will be interesting to see what can be achieved with the standard head unit and speakers.Comment

How would you tackle warranty with such installations or is your car out of warranty?Comment

You'd get no warranty support on the components you replace, but the rest of warranty is largely untouched - if you're drawing more power than the wiring is rated for, that could get interesting, but in general, replacing one component (or set of components) does not invalidate warranty on the rest of the vehicle.Originally posted by nibose View PostNothing to see here...Comment

I'll be interested in how you go - I've just taken delivery of a MY2017 Alltrack which so far I'm loving, other than the speakers and amp being a step backwards from the Dynaudio I had in my 2011GTD :/ I think I'll need to do some sort of upgrade eventually to stay sane on long trips

I haven't pulled my finger out as yet, so the poor amp is sitting neglected in the garage, along with the sound deadening.
