'03 Golf GLS. Monsoon (Premium VI) radio with CD changer prep (but no changer installed).
I was troubleshooting a problem with the bass speaker in the driver's door cutting out now and then, so I got to listening to each of the 8 speakers, one at a time (using fader and balance controls to suppress the ones I wasn't checking).
I noticed that, with max treble and minimum bass and mid-range, all of the treble speakers produce only a thin, reedy sound, barely audible with my ear next to the speaker and the volume control set 3 clicks above minimum (comfortable volume from the 'bass' speakers).
Is this normal?
I could argue that these speakers are only used for extreme highs and to fill in for sounds that would be lost coming from near your ankles; on the other hand I really expected to get a LITTLE more sound out of them. Tone controls all have the expected effects on the total sound.
Thanks, Chris Beall
