Hi all,
first stop, vehicle 1995 Golf MkIII 1.6, completely unmodified
I am looking to make a simple upgrade to existing stereo because except for using an itrip or similar or one of those cable cassette things theres no way to plug my ipod in to my good old cassette player, and also at any kind of volume the sound quality is, well, no good!
So, by altering as little as possible on the vehicle I want to add aux connectivity and improve sound quality (not looking for big bass)
My plan is to fit a new head unit, looking at something like a Sony CDX-GT530UI (USB connection would be useful), 4 new 6.5" door speakers (any suggestions for a reasonably priced but quality speaker much appreciated) and possibly the 2 smaller dash speakers. Maybe a small amp tucked away somewhere if neccessary.
My questions are as follows;
- Will simply replacing head unit and speakers improve the sound quality enough?
- Do i need to modify/upgrade/add any wiring?
- Why do the front door speakers have 2 wires to them but dash and rear door speakers have 4 wires?
That is probably enough for now, just trying to get as much info as i can before making any purchases, I will post again if anything else comes to mind, many thanks, fw86
