I realise I've got the entry level model, but the stereo really doesn't sound good. I can't quite find a way to describe it but the 'esses' in both speech and music (including the car's own 'voice') sound odd, kind of like the speaker is covered with a box. I've tried fiddling with the sound settings and EQ, but can't seem to get it to sound 'natural'. Is anyone else a bit disappointed with the sound quality? Have they really cheaped out with the speakers or is it something else?

I have the base sound system as well and is indeed underwhelming. They offer the sennheiser extra bit was not available when I bought mine because it was a preset model so I couldn't choose any options bit of could I world definitely would have cost an audio upgrade because the bar one is not very good. Let's see if with tone there's some upgrades that can been done.

I'm kind of stuck with it as it's a Motability vehicle, and I don't think you're really allowed to upgrade them.
