Dynaudio in Mk6 Golf compared to stock?

[Ferni]

Can't remember what it's called but it's one of the options just below all the radio stations on screen, once you pressed it a window pops up and radio text is one of the options on that window

are you thinking of "tp" ? That is a tick box under extras but there is no radio text under there on mine. I think you may be thinking of the rcd510. For some stupid reason the more expensive rns510 doesn't seem to do radio text.

Yes I was thinking of the RCD510. I thought the RNS510 would be the same though...

Yeah you would think so wouldn't you

[MkVIGTI]

I mean, it looks the same

Does what?
Display song information from radio stations? That's nothing to do with Dynaudio. The RCD310 (as per the photo), RCD510 or RNS510 all support that if the actual radio station bothers to send the information.

Sorry - stupid question. The RCD510 is the standard R headunit, and the RNS510 is the Sat Nav headunit, right?

[Corey_R]

Correct

Cheers.

Been reading up on the Dynaudio system recently in deciding on which sub to pair with it to finish off the package. Not looking for anything over the top, just after that extra bit of bass punch to finish off the system. In my short search I think I'm going to go with the Focal BUS 25.

While reading I came across a post in another forum in which the member posted the findings of an engineer's acoustics test in a Golf equipped with the Dynaudio system. The EQ settings for best sound results were; Tweeter: -8, Mid: +4, Bass: -3. This member stated the outcome was 'amaizing'. I'll no doubt be testing this once I collect my GTI next week, but was wondering if anyone with the Dynaudio equipped could try these settings and report on what they think?

Doesn't the Dynaudio hold much Bass? I thought it cranked hard. Never really got a chance to test it properly.

The Dynaudio has plenty of bass for the system it is. I added Dynamat to both front doors which added quite a fair bit more bass and volume. You would now think I have a 8" sub in the boot. If I was to go a sub I would buy an Image Dynamics 10" but I won't be as its a waste of space and it doesn't need it.

People need to realize that Dyn speakers need at least 100Hr plus run time before they start to sound their best. The more use the better they sound.
