1. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The APSP G7 was specifically designed for VW Golf 7(*) and comprises:
1. An AP8.9 bit G7 amplifier equipped with bit Drive technology, featuring 7 integrated presets dedicated to the VW Golf 7(*) designed by the Audison R&D team for “Plug&Sound” performance. The 7 DSP “Drive presets” preloaded in the AP8.9 bit G7 memory enable the use of the product without PC connection.
The user can select the preset according to his preferences. The AP8.9 bit G7 is equipped with DCC - Direct Cockpit Current technology and is powered directly by the OEM source rear connector.
2. A passive reflex sub-box (optional) APBX G7 including the compact speaker APS 250. The box is specifically designed to be placed in the spare wheel compartment, taking up very limited space and is fixed to the car without drilling the chassis. The mounting kit and installation manual are included in the packaging.
3. A pair of AP 6.5 Ω2 SP woofers for the front section, adaptors for the speakers OEM set up, connectors and
gaskets for a perfect integration.
