My aux is rubbish

[jorgii]

it works however the slightest movement and the sound goes funny or off and i have to spend afew mins wiggling it so it goes back to normal..... anyone having the same problem??? know how to fix it?

 

[Stevoz03]

Same problem with mine, no idea how to fix it though.

That would usually be caused by a poor quality cable don't think its an Ibiza specific problem.

 

[techie]

I'd agree

my cable cost me in the reqion of 15 buk and the sound quality is superb through aux! a million times better than the leon with a cd in it...

 

[jorgii]

where did u get it from?

 

[dav]

I think it was Maplin to be honest. Only paid that as it was on a long journey and the radio was bugging me... It was the only one they had left!

 

[jorgii]

any ideas of a good 1?

Get something shielded with gold connectors

I'd agree, got a good quality cable routed from the centre console to the glovebox and have no problems at all other than a slight buzzing noise during silent parts when using aux in level 3

haven't tested mine yet but from the experience i had from aux inputs from other cars the cable makes a big difference. and also you should keep it steady and not move it much cause that will distort the sound.

 

[jorgii]

any ideas of a good cable to buy... e.g. brand?

 

[lefkon]

just go to the store and not buy the cheaper one.

 

[lefkon]

and keep in mind to buy something shielded and with gold connectors.

also look out for the build quality. but i dont think that i will be that hard to buy a good cable. and when you use it make sure you have connected it all the way in (hehe) cause some aux ports need some force to put the connector inside. plus when you use it dont turn it because it will probably distort the sound

i have this one http://www.sonix.co.uk/griffin-6268auxcblc-auxiliary-audio-cable-coiled.html

i find that if you turn the volume on the ipod to half way and turn the volume up on the car stereo you get better sound quality

i bought a belkin cable for about a tenner, from halfords, was only meant to be a short term thing but it's perfect!

You can get a perfectly acceptable cable from Seat themselves for £2.50.

It's only a stereo audio cable for a car. You don't need top quality, because there is very little to lose. If you were at home and going for an audiophile setup, or had installed some expensive speakers/subs in the car then yes, gold connectors and shielding all the way, but to plug an MP3 player in to a standard car headunit this is all you need. I have one, it works well.
