My current head unit is the Iovox CD-80 with a CD changer in the boot but I want to replace it with the M3-100 once I find one.


I'm not planning to have the subwoofer so do I need the amp or not? What I assumed I'd have to do was replace the four door speakers and front tweeters which would be simple enough then and one way or another get the rear tweeters in. Is that the case or is there any more to it than that?
Hi there

please don't let me put you off this upgrade but I had the full HK setup in my 2005 contemp se 75 and its really not all its cracked out to be - I am led to believe that this is because the HK amp gets its power from the headunit rather than a seperate power feed. In turn the sound quality suffers from this at higher volumes.
