I got one too hate the stock sound

Just bought a 2022 deep black metallic and looking to enhance the sounds, i already have a fosgate t-0 in a 4th order box from a previous car I’m going to put in the back, so this really helps me out here thanks for the video

Thank you for this really informative video!

Changed speakers from stock (VW POLO AW 2018) to the two kits - IS VW 155 woofer and tweeter and IC VW 165 combo in the back and sound deadened all doors with sound dampening. Bass response improved, but overall sound is about the same. Ordered a focal 4.320 amplifier to try out now as I found myself pushing the car system's eq all max to have decent sound. Will see how it turns out. Nice work by the way! EDIT : just installed focal impulse amp and holy moly this is good. In my opinion just changing speakers ain't worth it, you gotta power them up properly. And focal implulse little amp works damn great. Just hide it away somewhere in the dash so your wife can't see it xD

Did you have to adjust the amp settings at all or did you just drop it in and leave it at default settings? Considering buying one of these and this would be one of the first mods I'd do.

@@wfujay3946 you got to adjust it of course to find a sweet spot. For the gain I put all settings on default on the media screen and all the crossover settings of the amp at full. Then put the volume at 75%, played a 150hz, 500hz and 1000hz with the hear protection headphone i use in the shop and went slow on the front gain till hear the distortion, then backed it off a little till no more distortion, then same thing on the rear speakers. Distortions are more easily audible with 150hz freq. after that high pass 75hz in front and about the same in the rear. Don’t know how good my method is but seem to work well :)

@@wfujay3946 I think tho, for the real good control of a sound a dsp could be a cool thing but I ain’t got any more money to throw in the sound of a polo haha. Sound deadening of doors worked nicely for the mid bass. It is nicely toight. But overall I think my setup lack a little in the mids somewhere in my car at least, while having a tad too much of highs. I’ve boosted mids a little bit and checked if distortion was ok on the amp but still there is a dip somewhere it is not as linear as I want. But yeah if I had 5k to throw at the system… There is an other little amp which has some sort of a auto dsp setting with included mic. Maybe it is better don’t know. To conclude, I like the sound it is good, jazz sounds wonderfully, pop sounds damn great, electro too. But for metal, I have the voice somewhat behind instruments a little.

Interested in that future addition of door speakers. When you mentioned you tapped into your factory amp.

Nice vid, looking forward to amp/sub upgrade :) . Use royalty free music next time. KZread is full of it :)

i have the 2006 touareg with the weird 8 inch woofers 3 inch mids and 1 inch tweeters, plan to replace with focal access 3 way component system and make an adapter for the 6.5. i thought about running free air 8s but i want the awesome definition up front, the rear will get 8 inch subs and box of skar evl 18s in the trunk. it's never enough though.

Was there a big difference when you added the rear speakers?

Are you going to add a powered sub video?

On the focal speakers they have dual power and dual ground in the connector but your only using one power and ground per speaker. Like someone else mentioned no clipping at higher volumes?

Any issues with the Focal speakers drawing too much power from the factory radio? You mentioned the Focal speakers being 4 ohms. But Crutchfield told me they are 2 ohms. That would draw more power from the amp…correct? So, what were the ohms on the factory speakers you took out? This has been a struggle to get any info on this project that you did. And you made it look so easy. Please let me know if I can use 2ohms speakers when you took out 4 ohms speakers without upgrading the amp.

hey i was wondering if u threw any codes when you removed ur supra speakers? and how u got rid of the cose

how must of that second skin did you use for all 4 doors? Wanting to know how much to order

Was this by choice picking the R line with base audio ? Looks simple. Not sure why VW cheaps out some cars though. The Dynaudio Excite drivers that they use in some vehicles are excellent

5:35 that's a coil, it's a first order lowpass filter, it makes high frequencies roll off at 6db/octave, in this case around 4khz.

Super . Je dois faire le miens aussi il me manque l'isolant phonique et les outils en plastique pour démonter les garnitures de porte. Ou avez vous acheté cet isolant phonique ?

Had a 2021 Passat r line I traded in with fender speakers for 2022 Tiguan r line. In comparison the speakers in this car are crap. Thank for this video to confirm that I wasn’t going crazy that those factory speakers are cheap. How much did all four speakers cost you?

Great video and replacement but which Focal Speakers are these? You didn’t mention which model they were from Crutchfield?

Hi, just wanted to know if you have any issues with the speaker upgrade? The speakers which focal makes specifically for VW have an impedance of 2 ohms and if the base unit doesn't have enough power then it could heat up. Also is there any distortion at higher volume? Bass depth better than stock speakers?

@jasonin2details

The Bass is about the same. I have no issues with the impedance. I think stock tweets were also 2 ohms? I have since added a powered sub. So on Stock Bass its one below the zero point so they are very clear and play louder than needed.
