I see this is an older post - did you ever complete the work? I'd be interested in how it turned out. I've been told I really should include a sub in any audio upgrade to my base system (RCD 510 Premium 8 in a 2012 GTI).

Audio on a Budget - MKVI GTI RCD-510 "Premium 8" system

I'm looking to upgrade my system with a $1,000 budget in mind for parts. I'm thinking of going the following parts:
amp - Alpine MRP-F300
processor - Alpine PXE-H650
front component - Polk Audio MM6501
...no sub
What would you recommend? I want to retain all factory controls and want a clean sound with less emphasis on bass since I've read that the stock MKVI speakers are pretty good if there's enough clean power fed to them.2010 GTI 4DR CSGray | APR Stage 2 ECU | Carbonio CAI Stage 2 | APR Downpipe | APR FMIC | Milltek 100mm GT CBE Non-Res | ST Coilovers | Whiteline ALK | H&R 26mm Front / 24mm Rear Sway Bar | HPA Pendulum Mount | UNIbrace XB & UB | iForged RS Equip Black | Continetal ExtremeContact DW | Hawk HPS Pads

I've got a pretty good thread going on in the MKVI forum.
