STAGE 2 - MK8/MK8.5 Golf R/GTI (Harman Kardon Front Kit)

Really solid speakers to level up your system

These speakers add nice tight bass to the midrange and help to support the subwoofer. They're named appropriately "stage 2" because after replacing the centre speaker (a mandatory step) these are the logical next step. They really bring EDM, rap and R&B music alive, but I wouldn't say that they make a HUGE difference. I'd say that they take the sound system from an 8 to a 9. I wouldn't say I was disappointed, but maybe my expectations were too high hoping for a 10. The install is pretty do-able for any car DIY-er, but don't feel bad if you break a few interior clips along the way. You may want to have a few of them on-hand for any stubborn clips that don't listen the first time. All in all I'm very happy with the product, the packaging, and how easy they make it to replace. RS Acoustics is the best!

These Speakers are A Thing of Beauty!

I started with ARS24 sub upgrade and the RSAcoustics was the perfect upgrade to complement the system. I all nine speaker upgraded and no comparison to the factory ones. Also before install I did the ACM Technik software upgrade, the guys were great and also deactivated 5TT and 7TT without having to use OBEleven. Night and day difference from stock. Louder and way cleaner sound. Apparently they need to be "broken in" so will sound even better in a few weeks. Installer took about 4 hours and said it wasn't easy so maybe don't try it yourself unless you know what you are doing.

Huge upgrade over the factory HK speakrs, highly Recommended!! Phil is a legend.
