Hi all,
I've been out of car audio for a while (6-7 years) and am looking to replace the stock system on my wife's 2005 8P 5Dr A3 with something not too over the top. I used to have a top of the range Eclipse HU, Eclipse amps, Focal speakers, Nakamichi sub & sound deadening in my old car - dont want to go anywhere near there for this car!
Must have for the HU:
1) single DIN
2) mp3 playability
3) ipod control from the head unit
4) front USB.
Dont want:
1) Sub
2) To amp the front or rear speakers (hmmm tempting though)
Hard to nominate the total budget as I'm new to the UK. Maybe around £2-300? Let me know if this budget is way too low!
Would appreciate any advice on:
Head unit change - do you need a fascia and any special wiring? (I have a single DIN Audi concert)
Front and Rear speakers - sizes of stock system and any recommendations for middle range speakers.
Thanks!
