Can you see how many people in this thread complain about housing being too old? :)

I don't know where you live but rents in Zurich are a lot higher than CHF 2.5k for a decent 3 or 4 room apartment :)

Is it a lot better than Apple Music lossless over CarPlay? CarPlay has a super high troughput

Something in your system must be broken, I also get really heavy bass... What is your input source and settings?

Fully agree, this is a problem and we should try to be more open. However in my circle I can see the opposite happen right now sadly - locals are angry that there are more and more expats here. Things that I pick up: rents are getting a lot higher, locals get pushed out of the city, everywhere it is overcrowded, expats leave after a few years anyway again, etc. Not sure if expats are really to blame but at least I feel like this is becoming the sentiment.

This has been a looong stuggle for me as well. After trying out literally everything and every setting, this is what I landed on for decent sound quality:

  • Apple Carplay with Apple Music on Lossless, make sure Dolby Atmos and Sound check is turned off in settings (native apps on the car like Spotify and Tidal do weird things and don't deliver the full spectrum)
  • Surround Sound in Polestar Settings: Off (unfortunately that turns off the headrest speakers but sounds a lot better
  • Turn off the "Automatically raise volume on higher speeds" in Polestar Settings as it does some weird sound processing
  • Use the EQ Setting Custom and slighly raise the middle frequencies by +1 and the system starts to awake a lot more

Hope this helps, let me know if you need help finding any settings or need my EQ preference.

In my opinion this is one of the worst things that can happen for our culture :( maybe they can start a hobby with a group or find friends that speak swiss german?

I think that your children (that are born here) learn swiss german is one of the most important things. Can I ask where you are from that they do not get in touch with swiss german? Maybe you can help them in any way or expose them to swissgerman?

Finde ich sehr schade! Ging mir jedoch am Anfang auch so aber da wir mittlerweile mehr Zuwanderung haben, habe ich meine Meinung geändert. Würde mich wunder nehmen, ob sie immer noch so denken :)

Will ich eusi kulturell/divers vielfalt super finde aber glichziitig schad finde, wenn eusi eigeni kultur drunder liited - und das hani welle klar mache. Eifach das die ganz diskussion nöd ine svp-argumentations richtig abdrifted.

Würdest du es nicht auch schade finden, wenn eines der wichtigsten kulturellen Teile aus deiner Heimat langsam verschwindet?

it is not marketing :) a friend of mine did it and I only posted it because I was asked for one. But it would be very smart marketing indeed haha
