I'd love the rns510, but I love my DAB too much.

Dynaudios have always been laid back and smooth thats there way, there studio monitors,pro,home systems are the same. They also show up the quality bad recording quality(mp3) more than poor speakers.

I used to be a Hi Fi 'addict' and participated on listening panels.
Got quite a good system, both analogue and digital.
Prefer my Pink Triangle turntable with SME Series V arm to the high end CD player I have.


Time to get yourself another high end cd player..... :wink:
I have built my own....

I rarely listen to music at loud levels in the car so I stayed with the standard hifi ...my 3 reasons

I want to hear what is outside happening (other cars, police/ambulance/fire etc etc)
I listen extensively at home so appreciate the quietness...
I simply love the noise of the Engine...... :cool:

Erik:
Now I know why I love you!
Truly fabulous. :smiley:
If only I spoke Dutch.
I may improve the sound in the car as I mainly listen to classical music, but I will do this myself with very subltle changes. Let's wait and see. Might even think the standard set-up is good enough.

I contacted OEM Retrofits several times too when buying my RNS and got no response from them either.  I remember a heap of people being in the same boat - hence why I didn't use them.

I think I might buy myself a VagCom  :undecided:
