Why would anybody create a car like this without ANY POSSIBLE WAY to pipe in digital sound? (Volvo C70)

2007 Volvo C70I researched on-line and called every audio expert on the planet possible who all delivered the same news: No possible way to interface the Volvo C70’s fiber-optic communication so you have to go with a FM modulator!!!! So taking perfect digital sound files, turning them into analog a la 1960s style drive in movie antenna clip-ons to play on the Dynaudio?

The Dynaudio people recommended that I contact the top car-audio shop in the PNW: Systems Unlimited, who they assured me would figure out a way out of my dilemma.

I’m still not clear what Charles did but he figured out a way to give me an iPod plug connected through my tuner some how where my digital music now sounds exactly like off a CD and song titles are displayed in the stereo interface just like a CD. He also pointed out that if I set my iTunes downloads to “lossless compression” I would get the the same quality as an uncompressed WAV CD – this turned out to be true. I don’t even hear a hint of hiss during the silence between songs.

I’m VERY satisfied with the result of whatever Charles did.

I highly recommend Systems Unlimited and Charles to anyone with a tricky audio problem or a desire to improve their quality of life and have their spirits lifted by experiencing jaw-dropping music every time they step into their vehicle.
