I also have B&O standard speakers in my mk3. One of the previous owners must have had a screw loose as they have Blown the main front drivers!! 🙄 So I guess I’ll be upgrading soon too.
RAPPY I WANT THOSE SPEAKERS I look forward to seeing the amp and subwoofer install as this is something I have been thinking about. I'd probably go for a small one under the boot floor rather than a big tube. Interested to see which one you get.
Before installing if you have the basic system, buy from a breakers the enclosure shown in this video that he removed which the door speaker is fitted in to. Some just have a plastic panel not a sealed box. Putting new speakers into a sealed box enclosure produces tons of midbass. It stops the door panels rattling and prevents the rear wave from exciting every part in the door skin. I’ve added an enclosure to a different Audi and the difference in punchy bass is night and day.
RAPPY I WANT THOSE SPEAKERS PLEASE :D I think my right is pretty much blown out, and it is B&O... Thats why i was looking for a video to see what did people do and what did they change in to. Thanks for the video and have a nice day.
I’ve got B&O in my TTRS, sounds pretty good but I’d be interested in upgrading to an amp and subwoofer if you go that route Darren, feel the bass is a bit lacking even on B&O!
Thanks, the bloody GoPro failed at that point so didnt get the footage but its easy, 3 clips to pull back and the main unit just pops out and a small connector with a tiny leaver to just release it. No issues.
I’m surprised a TTRS doesn’t have the B&O system as standard, or why you wouldn’t order the car from new with it, I have a tts with it and it sounds very good, it’s not the best car system I have had but worth the upgrade as you get the amp and sub as well
I didn’t buy the car new as they are £70k so had to settle for what I got. Yes I’m surprised they are not specced with the b&o either. I have an amp and sub coming so the build will be better than b&o once I’m finished
Good job,mate. My front speaker doesn't work, and on my right side, the door doesn't work as well(speakers). I live in oxford. Can you try to fix,please.
Hi rappy yes I know you didn’t I’ve watched your journey with the car since you got it, my comment was a general comment that who ever ordered the car wouldn’t put that option on such a gorgeous car from new, good post though👍
This car has got B&O speakers fitted already hasn't it?? (you can see the silver strip on top of the door speaker grills) Am I missing something? (apologies if I am!)
It looks like it has but it hasn’t. See an earlier video where I wired the b&o grills in ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-z4U_xbsPxpM.htmlsi=qcrtdb1dqhEXRbMu
Added as an afterthought... how are you finding the RS so far? Happy with mine (I think I spoke to you previously at a show after you had painted your previous TT's calipers). Was nice to chat then and see your journey with your RS now. Cheers mate.
Great info and vid. For my mk3 I added an Audison APBX 10 AS2 active sub under the floor in the boot. It raises the floor slightly but otherwise you wouldn’t know it’s there. It sounds great and comes with a bass control switch discreetly installed in the centre arm rest area.
