Is there anyway of telling Craig? In there video all the speaker covers are exactly the same as mine. But I was lead to believe the 825w system was called the surround with meridian sound badges on the speaker covers. Hence why I assumed I had the entry level.

I’ll have a look at mine when I get home next week if that helps? 👍

If you could Craig. Although I’ve got a centre speaker grill in the dash I’m pretty sure there’s not a speaker in there.

It’s easy to pop the speaker cover off with a trym tool... if you don’t own one? A cake decorating slice/knife works well 👍

What comes up on your settings menu under sound? Mine has Meridian, Dolby (something? Maybe 3D?) and another? All push lots of sound through the centre dash speaker... 👍

If I go into audio settings all I have is bass, treble and sub? I watched a vid the other day about the settings with the meridian setting. I don’t have any of that. I’m pretty sure I have the 380w. But! What’s puzzling me is from everything I’ve read the 825w has surround badged speakers. The car in powerful uk’s vid was just badged meridian so should only be the 380w system? I’m not bothered either way as long as if I buy the speakers I see an improvement.

If you scroll down to pg11 of “my car post” you will see a pic of my door card stitching... This shows my door speaker badging sir...

Apart from the stitching they’re identical to mine ??

Felstmiester, you have an AB, yes? It must be the 825W system, standard on Vogue SE upwards.

The 1700W system (not sure what W it was prior to 2016) has more than an upgrade amp and more speakers deployed... the speaker construction quality is of a higher grade.

He has a Vogue his profile says...

I had a Quincy moment of intrigue: https://www.fullfatrr.com/forum/post511098.html#511098

For the avoidance of doubt, I am not analysing all of your histories, just this one.

ilard. It’s a long story. Car was brought blind without viewing and was told it was an autobiography. I did put up another post explaining the case of events. But yes. As Craig said. It’s a vogue.

I think although what I’ve read. And the 825w they say has meridian surround on the speakers I’m beginning to think the L405’s must be the only model that just has meridian weather it’s the 380w or 825w.

Basically if you don’t have this meridian setting when you go into audio settings which I haven’t then it’s the 380w system?

Here you are sir as promised... Mine is 2yrs older than yours so, I'm guessing you have the same system as mine albeit with a slightly different screen look but! Importantly, you have the same Meridian stuff on the screen as my 825w system

Thanks mate. Sadly I don’t have that setting so the system in mine is definitely the 380w. This pretty much puts the stopper on my plans to upgrade the speakers. That is unless I can find out if you can retro fit the 825w amp. I have considered selling the car to buy a better spec. Due to the fact I brought this one blind I didn’t know at the time what it did and didn’t have but my plan was to sell it on but I’ve grown to like the L405 now.

Your most welcome sir...
