Seat sound system

[DaveMac]

Hi all
I am looking to upgrade to the Seat sound retro fit on my cupra 300 ST and was just wondering except for the centre console speaker and sub in the boot are the normal door speakers still the same?
To be truthful I think the normal speakers are pants and when I bought the car last year the rear drivers side speaker sometimes became a bit tinny like it was blown so I got it replaced under warranty and then it started to do it again on and off. Just wondering if it's still going to sound the same but just basically adds a sub with a bit more bass? Has anyone upgraded to the retro fit and if so what do they think of it?
Thanks

I have Seat Sound in my car as a factory-fitted option. I looked up for the audio parts section in official parts catalogue and I saw just a single set of speakers, there is no other set of premium speakers or something like that so it seems that all trim levels share the same speakers, only the number of them used in the car changes depending on the trim. Anyway, I'm mostly happy with the sound level but quality-wise it could be better, I guess.

Thanks for reply mate when you say depending on the trim levels depends on the number used how you mean? I thought all cupra had the same amount of speakers?

I was talking about all Leons, not only Cupras. I mean base trim, Excellence, FR etc.

I have Seat Sound from factory too. Very good system, and excellent bass.

I had the standard speakers and upgraded to seat sound. It’s loads better and not just added bass. @East Yorkshire Retrofits did the work and I would highly recommend their service

edit: I believe the door speakers are the same. You could also try adding sound deadening to the door cards, lots of posts on the forum about this. Supposedly the speakers sound a lot better with it done, although I haven’t personally done this so I can’t comment.

Hi pal yeah that's the people I contacted about doing it in the new year, am just a bit worried about this rear drivers passenger door speaker, like said now and again it gets very tinny like it's blown which I thought it had done so I change the speaker and it still does it now and again so it can not be blown as it would always do It. Thanks for your reply pal I will also sort the sound deadening out aswell if it sounds better

I think the biggest difference is probably the speaker in the middle of the dash.
