The NAV-TV ZEN-V processor seamlessly converts late model AUDI, VW, Porsche & Bentley factory MOST-150
audio bus to 12-channel analog RCA and TOSLink output. Adding aftermarket amplifiers to the OE MIB, MIB2
or PCM4 / 4.1 system has never been so simple and seamless. This kit integrates with the OEM M.O.S.T.® bus
to retain volume control, full fade and balance (analog only), treble, mid-range, bass control & Bluetooth voice
calls with no external speaker (true OEM integration). NOTE: OEM radio systems not equipped with an

amplifier or fiber must be flashed with the VAG-COMM or NAV-TV’s ZEN-V-PRG (NTV-KIT861, sold separately)
prior to installation. Vehicles equipped with an OEM amplifier do not need to be flashed.
