MG IM6 information & reviews

[tonyrome]

In my experience, in-car audio is usually heavily compromised by external noise. This is where the IM6 should do well, as it has double glazing and a noise cancellation system. However, the perceived quality is always heavily dependent on the quality of the source. There's not much point in a high end unit, if the source is either heavily compressed or, with respect to those who like it, music which has little or no dynamics. That's why the best test of an audio system is classical music, with a lot of detail and dynamics.

Right so I drove around an hour today with the DAB. What I noticed is no disruption at the signal. At no point it lost connection or moved over to FM.
Sound quality though was heavily compromised when checked vs spotify. I presume that this is due being DAB? Not sure and my knowledge on the matter is limited.

Pleased to hear that Nik, your report would suggest that it is indeed an Ariel problem with my car - I’ll get it checked, thanks

I was looking at it closely today and did notice that it tends to favour FM more than DAB compared to my last car.
