TEST AND REVIEW THE ATOTO F7G2A7WE Car Stereo!  

It's an interesting idea for sure. Wondering why Atoto have not suggested it.

​@@GarageKeiIt doesn't seem to be widely known or documented that some OEM head units supply 12V this way to the aerial. Atoto didn't suggest this possibility to me either: spotted it after hours of reading Alfa Romeo forums and measuring my old head unit's FM RF pin on the bench (+12V on it!).

Very cool info. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks man, I'm glad you're enjoying the channel. Thanks for the well wishes ☺️ 69420 subscribers by June? 😂

@@GarageKei it's possible

Yea, Atoto seemed surprised that the noise exists and that it's not related to any vehicle at all. Perhaps it's the batch made for Japan that's the problem?.

@@GarageKei no idea. Usually static comes from bad wire or connection points in my experience. Sometimes the speaker wires go bad, sometimes the rca just too old and brittle, sometimes the butt connect are not solid enough. Also heard static before with reverse polarity on speaker wires. My latest static was indeed reverse polarity to the speakers.

I'm glad you like it. Please send me more products to review. 💕

Good to hear! I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks

Thank you very much

Much appreciated!

Thanks! I always aim to be comprehensive.

Nice idea! I'll try that.

@@GarageKei myb it's just internal wiring issues causing the bg noise... if "audio" signal cable or PCB line is next to battery "phase" wire/line...

Yea I thought this also...

@@3s1kill yep! That's the one! I recently installed an S8 and (spoiler alert) no noise AND the radio works perfectly.

@@GarageKeiI guess I'm fortunate it that everything works for me lol. My only grip is the static noise. I went to the forums and it seems like people have this issues across all models. But, I'm glad yours was resolved.

I wouldn't say it was resolved. I still have the F7WE that Atoto sent me. They told me to keep it in case they want further testing done in the future. The noise, patchy Bluetooth reception and the Radio not working has not been fixed. Atoto decided that they wanted me to review the S8 as well so they sent me one of those too. I've just been really slow getting that video out.

I'm not so sure....

ATOTO were going to send me one of those to review but changed their mind and sent me an S8. What country are you in? My mate Stewart has an A6PF and hasn't said anything about his radio being a problem. He's in Australia.

@@RossmanGarage no I didnt. To my knowledge noise isolators as you call them are also called ground loop Isolators. Is that right? There was no ground loop. The fact that it happened on the test bench and when I put it in the buggy and took it to the park eliminated engine noise or noise induced from the environment. Any kind of noise isolator is going to remove frequencies that the unit is sending to the speakers, that includes frequencies present in the music you're trying to listen to. So you're going to lose sound quality. It might be a fix for the noise but not one I would ever use.

I'm not sure what the data of a VW Mk6 Golf is transmitted by. This only has Bluetooth (which I wouldn't bet on it working every time.) And rca in. You can't load apps on it either so I would say no.... I'm not going to make another video on the F7WE but I'll probably do some shorts if new information comes up. It's important for me that I share all information about this unit.
