Afternarket Pioneer HU w\ BOSE?

I have a Concert Dbl Din headunit & am happy with the volume & quality of the current setup, but I'd like more functionality, so I've ordered a Pioneer AVIC-940BT and I'm now a little worried that it'll overpower the Bose speaker\Amp setup. I don't want ear-splitting, nose-bleed sound, I prefer quality - max volume should never happen, but I want to be able to hear it easily when I drive with the window open an inch or two.

Is anybody using a powerful aftermarket HU with the Bose speakers\amp package & how does it sound?

Cheers.

Ah, thanks! I think i will be happy with that scenario as long as the Pioneer's line output frequency is similar to that of the Concert's, but even if it isn't I should be able to adjust it with the Pioneer's EQ, right?.

Sounds great ...no pun intended, Thanks Andy. :thumbsup:

One more question ...do you know anybody on the forum within reach of south west Hertfordshire that might like to earn a few sheckles fitting & coding this for me once it arrives? They could also code out the airbag light that came up after fitting a switch light earlier.

just a quick update:

I had the HU fitted yesterday & it sounds much better, just like AndyMac said it would. I'm chuffed about the SQ of the setup & am still trying to find a happy medium (re: frequency) for the eclectic range of music that I listen too (just about anything except that squeaky Jazz type crap ..which does my head in. ). I just need someone with Audi specific knowledge & VCDS to code this on the CAN-BUS, as it's supposed to have the capability to read & display certain info! but that can wait until I've learned how to operate the basics first.
