Hi,
Got my A3 sportback on order with the basic concert stereo as judging by the posts here, the Audi stuff is nothing to write home about.
I'm considering initially upgrading the HU and installing a changer, and thought the Alpine 9812RR and CHA-S634 would be a good starting point to give me MP3 playback at reasonable quality. I'm not looking for an audophile setup, just something with a bit more class than the standard Audi offerings. Speaker upgrades would be next on the list in terms of ICE upgrades, but may not happen for 6 months+.
My initial question is what leads/adapters would I need to fit this setup, and how much butchering would be required to fit the changer into the glovebox? With the car not being here yet, measurement of the glovebox is a little tricky.
Any thoughts/alternatives to the kit mentioned would be gratefully received too.
tia,
