Basically a chrome Pretoria with very slight differences. They should look real nice.
Volvo C30 R DesignWhat car was that, with the Dynaudio? CC Executive?

That's a smart move, and probably easier to clean too! Do you have a link/do they offer various styles? I have the less-snazzy infotainment system offered on the '19 S, and would like to do something to protect the screen from errant scratches.Installed protective glass on the infotainment. Kids (and wife) safe now
Do you know how the Dynaudio is in the newer models? While I was scouring the web for ideas on upgrading the fender system, I came across mixed reviews of the Dyanaudio, but then again I found people that said the fender system is great.Yeah the Dynaudio system that came with the MK6 GTI Autobahn was widely hailed as the best stereo in a car under 50K. None of the luxury cars in that same segment were better. Audiophiles on GolfMK6 used serious equipment To measure the frequencies and all that audiophile-y crap and compared to other cars, the Dynaudio system was the most flat EQ with like 1 small area in the cabin that was tuned away from the driver and passengers where there was crowding
i used this product on mine, its leaps better that the thick visible ones, best part is the smudge finger print prevention, also has covers for the gauges to protect and hide all the typical acrylic scratches.That's a smart move, and probably easier to clean too!

I am getting snobby with my audio equipment as I get older and extremely disappointed with my MK7.5 setup. I sold a MK6 autobahn and didn't realize how lucky I was with the Dynaudio..Yeah the Dynaudio system that came with the MK6 GTI Autobahn was widely hailed as the best stereo in a car under 50K.

I don't agree with what you wrote.I mean the Fender system is not bad. It's still better than a Nissan's Bose system, or a Toyota's JBL. And definitely better than lesser brands' lesser marquees.
But if you're coming from MK6 Dynaudio, or any Dynaudio system for that matter, you're gonna be disappointed.
Fender is under amped. You really get distortion in the upper half of the volume, and the sub is so weak that it can't really do its job of relieving low-frequency responsibilities from the midrange drivers. So you get this empty bass from the sub combined with overworked midrange drivers.
I actually chose my SE Alltrack over an SEL because I preferred the Helix upgrade from my 2015 GTI S over the Fender system my first MK7, a 2015 GTI SE had.
They must use completely different DA components than what they use in Volvo. There is no comparison between the DA I had and the fender system. The fender system makes me cry any time I try to listen to something with any amount of bass.As far as I am aware, there is actually zero difference between MQB Dynaudio and MQB Fender. Literally identical equipment with different branding for the different markets. Nobody in America knows who Dynaudio is - everyone knows who Fender is. With the MK7 Jetta, VW went with Beats because that's the most recognizable name in personal audio in 2021.
