Noticed from another thread of yours that you've had the HU out recently (connections remade properly?), can you confirm that all 8 speakers are working as they should be.

Sorry I can't make out what HU stands for  :-[ but I've put my hand over them all even parcel shelf and ear over door ones they all seem to be working fine just the 2 front tweeters that's the problem but nothing I can't live with.

Thanks Rob  :y
Nope didn't have to take the radio unit out after all, I could be getting paranoid with hearing things its not noticeable when the volume is up that much.

Probably time to have a meet up with another Elite owner and do some listening comparisons.

So just to confirm, all speakers are working, both tweeters are giving out treble?, and this noise is coming from both tweeters with the Vol turned down?

More of a light static sound.. I did make a video although it isn't much good. Tweeter Sound Video Link

Yep I'm 99% sure all speakers are working sitting in the rear its a lovely clear sound and its good in the front just that if the volume is low i can just about hear this sound, If the Volume if off altogether tweeters don't make a sound either. Nothing i can't live with just thought i'd ask encase it was normal or a simple common problem.

If it helps use the Left Right and Front Back Fader Controls to confirm all channels are working.  :y

Trick question ? .. Locked the car gone indoors "House" cant hear anything... But as you'll be familiar with the steering wheel audio controls do stay illuminated for 5 minuets or so.

Hmm, ok thinking out loud now, Im starting to wonder whether someone has fitted a Non Bose configured HU into the Bose Set Up in its previous life!

When you use or increase the Volume Control does it become loud very quickly, what does the quality sound like at say 1/2 volume and full volume, with a decent CD at full volume there should no or very little distortion?.
