To adjust the Golf 7 audio system for the best sound, locate the audio settings option in the central control screen and configure the sound effects. Here are more details about the Golf 7: The Golf 7 is equipped with three types of engines: a 1.2-liter turbocharged engine, a 1.4-liter turbocharged engine, and a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine. 1. The 1.2-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 85 kW, a maximum torque of 200 Nm, a maximum power speed range of 5000 to 6000 rpm, and a maximum torque speed range of 2000 to 3500 rpm. 2. The 1.4-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 110 kW, a maximum torque of 250 Nm, a maximum power speed range of 5000 to 6000 rpm, and a maximum torque speed range of 1750 to 3000 rpm. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. 3. The 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 81 kW, a maximum torque of 155 Nm, a maximum power speed of 5800 rpm, and a maximum torque speed of 3800 rpm. This engine is equipped with multi-point fuel injection technology and also uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block.
Having driven for several years, I've found that getting the best sound from the Golf 7's audio system starts with sound quality adjustments. Typically, I first enter the audio settings menu to lower the treble slider, avoiding harsh sounds that can hurt the ears, then boost the bass to around 70% to make drum beats more impactful—the Golf 7's speaker enclosure responds well, and enhanced bass makes driving rhythms more lively. I keep the midrange at 50% to ensure lyrics remain clear and aren't drowned out by the music. Balance is crucial, so I prefer shifting the soundstage slightly toward the driver's seat for a more immersive listening experience. The Golf 7's cabin design includes reflective surfaces, and the soft interior materials absorb sound well, resulting in a smoother audio quality. Volume should ideally stay below 60% to avoid distraction and potential accidents while driving. Regularly cleaning the audio ports and air vents also prevents noise interference and maintains smooth music playback. Don’t overlook source quality—using USB for lossless audio or Bluetooth Hi-Fi mode can significantly enhance the overall experience.
