GTI engine note overpowering?

[DonkeyKong]

Received my GTI today. I am smiling all the way home. The car engine drown the sound system. The sporty note of the engine would destroys your enjoyment of music. For the owner of Dynaudio upgrade, what is your experience?

[MurphyTheElf]

The difference is the music now destroys my enjoyment of the engine.

[Yevvy]

with faces of disappointed owners ?

You wouldn't need to turn the music up that loud before you can't hear the engine..

The gti sounds cool anyway and not really that noisy??

maybe my GTI is a little different, but its extremely quiet, and discreet,
no problems with engine drowning out the music,

in fact I wish it had a little bit more character to its note.

Admittedly I've only driven the GTI once on my test drive. It had a nice engine note to it, but certainly not over the top. Not enough to drown out music anyway.

Maybe you need to elaborate a bit more. Did your car come with an APR exhaust from the factory?

I assume you had the windows down the whole time you took the long way home?

Maybe he's driving a MKV and the exhaust has fallen off?
Or maybe he hasn't found the volume control for the stereo yet. I too haven't spent a lot of time in the MK6 yet, but I fail to see how I'd be possible for the engine to drown out the stereo! hehe
