Default A6 B&O sound system in Canada

Hey you guys, im new in this forum, im interested in new a6, and i found something interesting. When i build my a6, i found this B&O system which cost 6500 CAD says it has 19 speakers, but at the same time i believe in B&O official website and Audi USA website say A6's B&O system has only 15 speakers. Is Canadian market so unique that they put A8's option on A6 or Audi just made some thing wrong?
Thank for your replying

Everyone knows Canadians need more speakers because they are hard of hearing and continually say "eh"


Or it could be this....

I would call Audi Canada and get final answer, they have more resources and will get back to you promptly. Sales may know but you can ask them. But Canadian specs/packages may be different.
Also I would check feedback on B&O system and its value (i.e. is it worth $6500). I called Audi Canada for a question and they were very responsive.

I think the A8 B&O has 19 speakers and the A6, 15 speaker.

I would call Audi Canada back and resolve the conflict with dealer information. They did that with my dealer in Ottawa and Audi Canada called dealer directly to update him on a change in package. But I saw lots of folks replied if this is offered the same like in US as far as number of speakers I would go with forum responses. Website in most of cases should be accurate but sometimes does not get updated on changes at least that was my experience but Audi Canada called dealer and responded promptly.
