Monsoon

[QuA]

I didnt get a monsoon system with my jetta but was wondering if I could buy one from VW and install it? Do non monsoon VW's have the audio jacks installed?

Your money would be better spent buying a new aftermarket deck/amp/cd changer. They charge a fortune for the monsoon (sounds fine tho)

Sometimes I wish I didn't have the Monsoon deck... I love the wheel controls and would never switch, but its not very upgradable (MP3, changers, subs) and doesn't have that 'aftermarket look' that you get from with a really nice deck.

If you don't have the Monsoon system already I would also recommend just getting a really nice aftermarket deck....

Speaking of subs, I was thinking of ordering an MTX ThunderForm JETTA10A. Has anyone heard any good/bad reviews of this sub/enclosure combo?

Peter you do also have a MTX sub, just not in that enclosure

Well, you could probably buy the amplifier from VW, but why would you want to? :eek:

Even if you install it, you'll void your electrical warranty, because it wasn't installed at the factory. It's an 8-channel amp, so you'd have to do some major re-wiring. In addition to this, you can get far better sound going with aftermarket equipment. A factory installed Monsoon amplifier in a Jetta is located in the trunk, bolted to the underside of the parcel tray on the passenger side.

Don't do it man!
