in my younger max power days I loved upgraded head units, amps and sub boxes. Now I’m older I prefer things to look oem.
The last time I had any aftermarket audio equipment fitted was in 2009. I bought a new Brera and the speakers were awful. I had a alpine sub and amp fitted by safe and sound in droylsden.
The bass was obviously much bettter, but it didn’t sound very balanced.
Every car I’ve had since has had decent oem audio. The Volvo XC60 I’ve had on lease for the last 3 years is particularly good. The lease is up in 2 weeks.
I’ve just bought a 2016 VW Amarok. I love everything about it apart from the speakers. They just sound “tinny”.
I want to keep everything looking standard and would rather keep the existing head unit.
I have 2 decisions I need to make.
Which components do I go for upfront? It’s years since I’ve looked into speaker brands. I’ve havent heard of some of the brands I’m seeing.
Rockford, alpine, pg and jl were my favs. I’ve not got a clue how they compare to “newer” brands.
I’m also unsure if it’s worth replacing the coaxial speakers in the back doors? I know many people say it’s not worth it but I don’t want a sub in the back.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks |
