Hi, new to the forum having just got my first Audi!
I'm looking at replacing the concert on my S3 as it's got a dodgy volume control.
I've seen in various places that replacing with aftermarket units can cause the Bose setup to 'pop'.
My question is, has anyone tried this with the new Alpine IDA-X001? As I understand it these pops are caused by the hu grounding the pre-outs to stop electrical noise being amplified. As this Alpine unit has no moving parts to generate noise, will the problem largely be eliminated?
Thoughts please!
Cheers
Graham
