C30 amplifier location

NickAuger · Jan 19th, 2017, 21:17

Hi,

Same problem with my c30 and a parrot system muting. I assume there are 3 audio systems, basic, premium and the Dolby? Basic has no amp, Dolby has amp behind rear speaker, but does the middle audio system have an amp anywhere. No body seems to know which ISO lead to use. I've now got an sot 980 but this doesn't look like the back of the stereo, and it definitely doesn't have an amp behind the speaker. Will it have one in the boot? If so, how do you get to it?

Thanks again

In he boot on the passenger side behind the side trim hides the amp on the HP audio system, you'll know it when you find it

100% the c30 has an amplifier in the boot? This is turning into the most convoluted audio project I've ever completed as I'm getting told 3 or 4 different bits of information. Volvo are bloody useless as are the sot lead suppliers. In the stereo, in the boot, behind the speaker. Had the car apart 3 times now with no luck.

Hi Nick

Did you get anywhere with this? I've just bought a 2011 C30 R Design with 'High Performance Sound' (That's what it says on screen when it starts up anyway) and having had the dash in pieces this morning trying to fit my Parrot kit, I have ended up ordering an SOT-048 lead online which I think (and hope) will do the job...

Hello, did you find the amp?? I have a C30 2013 R desing. I think it has middle audio due screen says premium audio but it is not the DYNAUDIO.

Thanks
