I'd call if I were you, or simply ask them in person, I never got a written reply from any car dealership.. or it took months.
 
I tell.you - there is serious sound difference between radio / Bluetooth & ApplePlay. When my wife connects her iPhone 6s via USB, it sounds awesome. I'm thinking of upgrading just my Windows Phone 950XL to iPhone 8 (in red naturally) just for a sound upgrade & I don't need to pay the dealership for assistance.

It is exactly the same on the previous i30 as well.. USB stick, or connected via cable will always give a much better quality sound. I use bluetooth only for calls.

After that I could install my jbl basspro from my old car. Or maybe an underseat.
You mean.. JBL Car GT-BassPro 12"? I have an underseat.. It's ok... For example on rock/alternative it's ok, on electronic/substep or whatever has really fat bass it's a no. No. No. I don't care about boot space to be honest. I find the sound system ok in the N, for me it only lacks low's. Ordered that JBL today.. I like it too. A lot. :rolleyes:

The underseat was in my girls car, I got the basspro II from my last car. It's really small and got nice sound.

Is there an RCA out on the back of the head unit to run an amp, or are you using a line converter?
 
I need an amp with one of those then.
It's active, integrated amplifier. All you need is to connect it to a left and a right speaker.
I'll tell you a little secret.. You can connect an active subwoofer or an amplifier rated at maximum 180 watts directly on the 12V socket in the boot. ;)

Nice. Why is it max 180w? I was thinking about putting in a 5 channel amp in the back and hooking up rear tweets, shelf speakers and a sub..

LOL.. this car is draining my wallet. I just can't stop spending on it. :D

The 12V socket can handle MAX 180 watts. I think it's written on it? I think. If your amp requires more juice, then you need to have a direct connection to the battery, fused.
 
Could I take a line from the fuse box to save running wire through the bulkhead?

BTW I did the cutting of the speaker brackets that you suggested.. Works a treat..:p

I'll post some pics on the other thread later. Only issue I have is, the audio plug that connects to the bracket has brown and white wires. I don't know what's + and what's - :rolleyes: Can't see anything on the plug or speaker to indicate.

Can someone help me get this thing out of the box?! It's massive. o_O
Had this in my last car,
Had to make brackets and screw it down to the board above the spare wheel otherwise it slid around the boot.

I loved it although I feel its a bit big for my N :(


This sound upgrade package just came out on Hyundai DE Accessories website for i30N. :eek:

Amazing, as I was looking into something like that, and it suits everyone that wanted to simply plug in a subwoofer to this! :D:D:D:D
I was looking at getting a smaller sub for my N as the music didn't sound as nice as I'm used to.
If I bought this accessories pack would I be able to just throw in a 10" sub in the boot and it would plug into the amp just fine?
I don't know too much about subs or amps

I don't think this is available for the Australian market, you would be better off getting something like it, or even better, installed from a shop that specializes in sound. Theoretically you should be able to connect the subwoofer to an output on the amplifier.
