I am really glad I got it as a package that I originally did not want..... nothing quite like having awesome sound in a fine, quality automobile like an AUDI....

Worth every penny! Beats the Lexus Mark Levinson stereo by a thousand miles. Beats the BMW HK stereo by a million miles. Best stereo I ever had in any vehicle I've owned.

I wasn’t trying to say that the B&O doesn’t sound good, I was just surprised by the sound of the basic system, I guess I expected more of a difference than I noticed. I’ll have to give it another critical listen today since I didn’t get my car back yesterday!

B&O is the best so far, worth every pennies. Beats Bose system on my old Macan S.

I have the base system in my A5 and the B&O in my wife's Q5. The difference is like night and day. Not having it in my A5 is a disappointment that I must live with every day. If you enjoy music, spending the $950 is a must have option that you will never regret!

I know tastes are different, but does anyone want to share their preferred settings for their stereo? I have surround on high as I like the way it sounds, but Treble/Bass I seem to always be fiddling with.

Cool thanks. Aside from the surround setting I think mine is around that...I usually put the bass a couple notches higher. I'll check.
