When installing Mobridge, what to do with ASD and auto speed volume?

sweet coffee · 02-13-2017, 01:42 PM

Hello,

My car is a F31 european and equipped with option 688 Harman Kardon. I am contemplating upgrading by using a mobridge DAC/preamp, dsp, amp.

I have not found a single car audio shop in Belgium who has yet installed a mobridge in a BMW, therefore I am a bit worried by the lack of experience.

As soon as I have the equipment set up proposal by the shop I will run it through the forum for feedback.

In the meantime, should the installer do anything about the asd (I have unplugged it) or the auto speed volume control? Hopefully, he can just disconnect the oem amp, replace it with the mobridge and not worry about asd and auto speed...

Thank you,

The Auto Speed Volume control works over the mobridge unit as well, so if you don't want it, turn the setting down to 0 in iDrive.

I have used the Audison version of the moBridge unit (Audison bit DMI) in BMW and Audi without any issues. Can be tricky during the first time setup as the unit needs to be coded against the correct car make/model. I have had issues where the PC i was using didn't recognise the unit via USB and I had to reinstall the USB factory drivers but then it worked just fine.
