#18 of 25 Re: Bang and Olufsen, Bose, and Audi Symphony [nebatuga] by aussiem8 Nov 09, 2008 (8:06 pm)
Replying to: nebatuga (Nov 07, 2008 9:49 am) I lease as well, but adding an aftermarket sub is a great solution for leased cars. They connect right in with the factory set up and disconnect very easily. I had a local professional install mine. They just uninstalled it last week when I returned my 06 A4 at lease end. You DO NOT want your Audi dealer to do any of this for you. Firstly, on the 09, all you can get is the factory set up, which will have poor bass once you turn the volume up to any decent listening level. But then I really want tight, deep bass with my music to provide a full bodied sound (not the head banging, hear you from 1/2 a mile away rumbling bass that the young kids of today call bass), so you might find the factory set up to meet your sound needs. Best way to decide is bring a selection of your own music (important to try different genres) and play it on the car system. Let your ears tell you what works for you. If you decide on an aftermarket sub to add on, you should expect to fork out as much as $500 for the sub, amp and installation. Although I usually get high end equipment, I went the budget route on my A4 and got an Infinti Kappa 10" sub with a Profile amp -- both purchased from Crutchfield.com, based on their customers' online reviews. Had the installer build the subwoofer sealed box. All in < $500. And the sound was amazing, and worth every penny. At lease end you still have the equipment to put in your next car. If you decide on adding a sub, I'd be happy to give more details via email. Have fun experimenting.

#20 of 25 ipod does not work with Audi Symphony stereo I recently bought a used 2008 by jimlindsey Jun 02, 2009 (2:48 pm)
I recently bought a used 2008 TT Coupe which was originally sold new in 2007. It has the Audi Symphony stereo sound system which has a plug for an iPod in the glove box. I have an older iPod with a hard drive and a newer iPod third generation nano -- whenever I plug in either of the iPods, the stereo recognizes the iPod and shows an additional six CDs (CD seven through 12) which is supposed to represent six playlists on the iPod. (What a lame system this is for playing an iPod) However when I choose to play one of these CDs, there is no sound. The track appears to be playing but there is no sound. I took this in to the technician at the small Audi dealership where I bought the car, and he was clueless. Does the stereo system need a software update? Anybody have any helpful ideas?   Thanks in advance
#21 of 25 New Audi owner needs help with a couple of questions by jimbodtx Jun 27, 2009 (9:51 pm)
I just bought a 2005 A4 2.0T, (not quattro). I have a white circle light with a red ring around it and it says MPH in the middle of it.... blinking every once in a while. What is this? How do I set my maintenance reminders? Does anyone own one of these cars that does not have Quattro and if so, have you had any problems with it. Mine has 43,000 miles on it.

#24 of 25 A4 Radio Question by audifan9 Jul 26, 2009 (1:59 pm)
I recently purchased a B7 A4 2.0T and planned on picking up the car this past weekend. The dealer called and said there was a problem. Apparently the radio that was in the car was not the factory correct radio and the mechanics realized it after failed attempts to try and get the installed radio to work. The previous owner attempted to install a factory Audi radio and removed the original. The car is being sent to Audi authorized dealer to have the correct radio installed which is also equipped with navigation system. I can not complain since the nav is an added bonus and I am not being charged. Has anybody heard of this before? At first I thought maybe the battery went dead and a code was needed to get the radio to work when I test drove the car. It sounds strange and I never heard of this before.

Replying to: dcaudi (Jul 27, 2008 6:18 pm) I have the same problem as the amp cuts in and out. Did you fix yours and what did you do?
