HOW DO YOU CONNECT WIRES FROM THE HEAD OR AMPLIFIER ???
The mObridge is only a solution if you are upgrading the full system, however. Since you disconnect the factory amplifier, the factory speakers will not work while using the mObridge.

The Bose system is definitely a significant step
up over the stock system used in the A6 (same system basically as in the stock A4 and it's rather anemic there as well) B&O is a big jump over both, but the Bose system is reasonably comparable in quality to the smaller B&O in our prestige 2015 A4, so at least there relative cost/performance is close between a very nice B&O in the A4 and Bose in the A6... Though the B&O in the A4 has a very slight edge is smooth clean treble as well as slighter more taut bass but it's pretty close by way of comparison.
While I would love the B&O in my new 2916 A6 soon on the way from Neckarsulm the Bose was decent enough to convince me to not she'll out an addition 4 grand over the Already big upgrade over the stock system in the Bose..
Still there is no doubt a bigger improvement could easily be has with the Bose by choosing some much better compatible fit speakers to swap out.

Can't wait to get your take on it!
Thought about something similar to Cleansweep, but it appears to be a much more invasive (and expensive) upgrade since in addition to a bigger and more expensive processing box it would seem to require an ADDITIONAL high power amp...and require significantly more labor to install; likely doubling my current $700 budget.
I'm also concerned I might not see enough improvement to make that kind of investment worthwhile since I mostly listen to Sirus & Bluetooth sources around town and mostly only use iPod or SD card for longer trips
Please post your results (and pics) soonest!!

Here is a pic of the subs with my new trunk lights (LED).
2 x 12" in box which can be removed as and when required.

faced with the fact that the services are told to refer to the AUDI, as they say in the car all okay))), no need to change anything you.
But I already put the head on another 400 watt now I want to find an amp for it, but in the services I'm afraid to put say that will burn itself head unit , because there is already output from the amplifier goes to subwoofer.
Friend please make a diagram on a piece of paper or photos which wires where hooked up.no one believes what I've read)))

Im yet to tidy up my wiring.
I removed the stock sub as my box would not fit correctly. I then used that feed to go into the LC2i box and then onto my amp.
I only connected the feed to the left input channel.
Here is hookup diagram:

Ok so here is my setup, as can be seen the levels on the LC2i are very very low.

Did you connect the amp remote input to the remote output from the LC2i?
Or directly to the 12V switched outlet?
Just asking because the way you drew the lines in your connection diagram looks like the amp remote in is going directly from the 12V socket. I would think it's preferable to put the amp downstream from the LC2i to help prevent possible turn on noise. The LC2i probably has a short delay when turning on to prevent pops.
Or, maybe that's how it is connected and I'm just reading the drawing wrong?
