I have Hertz "Hi-energy" components up front and Coax in the rear with a 10" sub in the rear arch well. An Audison 4 way amp to power the fronts and the sub just gives the speakers that little extra that they need to bring the sound to life. :happy2:
I've had the doors and boot Dynamatted to help deaden out unwanted vibes and it works a treat. :smiley:

Where should i be looking for the hertz ones John? Are these specifically for the golf? What did you think to the Focals in the link?
Im sure i have read they were a good make....i think!

Also, not really havin investigated into the speakers yet, i wondered about the rears. I presume they are 2way components? mid/tweeters? does anyone know the size of these please?
Hurdy:
In the rear I had the tweeters deleted as they are up near your head and too "buzzy" for my liking. They are 2 way coax speakers, which is a better mix IMHO.
The Hertz speakers are superb. They fit very well with the GTI and have a good reputation, so they don't tend to advertise as much as some other makes of speakers. :wink: The focals look good, but the hertz ones I have are a higher spec. :smiley:

True, but I luv my soundz too much :happy2:
Andy:
focals are a good quality speaker as are hertz that are in hurdys--the dynamatt does help keeping the bass and sound in the car--mine has it in the doors and the boot-but it isn't cheep thou but well worth it if your into sounds
monte:
Thanks again guy's :happy2: So far i have managed to put up with the stock system, but i don't know how long i can keep it up! Shame that the RNS510 dosent have the RCA outputs tho. Will connecting fly leads instead lessen the sound quality?
Can anyone else confirm that my old pioneer amplifier will be up to the job of entering my car. I would like to use it if poss cos it has hardly been used! It is a Pioneer GM-X554..............or should i just sell it and get something more up to date? :ashamed:
