TT (Mk1) Discussion Discussion forum for the Mk1 Audi TT Coupe & Roadster produced from 2000-2006

I may have my dealer re-code my Roadster's Bose for megabass. Any experiences, good or bad?

I had heard that the "mega-bass" sounds distorted. Is this incorrect?

Default Did to me. It was exampled to me with techno and rock. It sounded really muddy

and hurt my ears. This was in a coupe. I am not an audiophile but I have been a musician in a past life and have low tolerance for tonal irregularities.

Only is you turn the bass up. I find I keep it lower with the recoding.

Actually the 2 rear speakers in the coupe are 6.5 woofers...not quite capable of real sub bass..

Default that was my point...the rear speakers don't have the low frequency response...

of real subwoofers...that's an area in which the roadsters have an advantage over the coupes.
