Well here is my take on this. :smiley:

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=161331.0

My take is that thread is a pile of sh!te. There is no difference between the 310 and the 510, both made by blaupunkt. The RNS is different because its not made by blaupunkt, its made by continental.

the sweet sound of twin exhaust pipes??

I bought my GTI with the stadard speaker system and it seems many regulars to this site rate upgrading the system.

Is it really worth upgrading or would it be better to enjoy the sound of your engine?




Yes its worth upgrading, its a far better system than standard.

What I found interesting is that the RCD310 (and possibly RCD510) with standard speakers sounds nearly as good as the RNS510 with Dynaudio. Also, there might be less bass distortion at higher volumes with the standard set-up  as there is less lower-end power. O well, I can see my upgrade list on the rise again!

It seems Kev has the perfect system: RCD510 + DAB radio + Dynaudio + TomTom (?). :smiley:

IMO for yourself am1w, you want to add the MS8 it makes a big difference to the tonality and staging at normal listening levels :evil: (things most people know nothing about). It should be available in the Uk soon.

My take is that thread is a pile of sh!te. There is no difference between the 310 and the 510 both made by blaupunkt. The RNS is different because its not made by blaupunkt, its made by continental.

Sh!t to you b!tch! :grin:
The thread was about the difference between the RCD310 the RNS510, not about the RCD510 which is a half-way house! :evil:

My point is that they are made by completely different manufacturers, so how can you compare ?

I Just find it a shame you cannot have DAB and rear view camera on the RCD510  :sad:

Kevin: I compared the sound quality of the RCD310 vs RNS510 with Darren. The RCD510 was not of interest, available or compared. It probably sounds just as good as the RCD310. :smiley:
