As I peered into her Bi-Xenon lights.
I felt a connection to her
We began to creep closer, Her mirror caps gleamed
We got to know each other in the night
Her Bose speakers sounded nice
Her Quattro brought her miles to be mine
But later that light, We got even closer.
And she had a secret, something that could never be told.
She had half the operation, but never ever the whole.
She was an Automatic. A secret to never be told.

I own this exact car, same color everything but with black interior. Even if it is was a manual, it is still meh. Power is meh, underateers everwhere, but I couldn't pass on the price at time. I like it either way. Gets me to work everyday at a max speed of 30mph in traffic both ways.

Bose speakers, yuck! No better way to know an audio person had no say in the car.

I've lusted these for quite some time. Honestly, I'm fine with the Automatic on these. I still like this one, and it's super clean.

Haha, I tried the Bose out on a A4 of the same generation as mine.
I thought something was wrong with it, It was No Bueno.

It's in Jersey, so not impossibly far away. I never really considered the S6 though. I'd be scared of repair bills. But Hey, hopefully with my A4 I will have already seen it all.

Yes, but it's a good way to know that a marketing person had a say in the audio system :)
Also I had the Bose system in my A6 and really didn't think it was bad at all, but I'm no expert in that stuff.

Yea, Bose is the Apple of the stereo world. An OK product but way over priced and great marketing.
I have a set of $23 headphones that sound better than just about anything Bose. If you are into headphones, check them out the Monoprice 8323s.
Don't buy Beats by Dre either, they are worse than Bose. They may have a ton of noise and bass, but its all muddy and wrong. If you want to spend that kind of money, I would strongly recommend so many other things. Grado, Sennheisser, heck even Panasonic or Colby!

They generally aren't bad, just cost 3000% above what their sound quality is worth. In the audiophile world Bose is known to sell cheap components at sky high prices because marketing.
Which brings me to: I hate marketing... Of all types.

Yeah, Beats are severely overrated. I tried some Sennheister, I think headphones at Best Buy. They sounded like Sex, until I saw the price tag.
I've got a set of Bose Quiet Comfort headphones that I was given. They were beat up, but free and they don't sound super bad. I'm sorta an Audiophile, so they suit my needs enough.

LOL, I can't do noise canceling... I can hear the sound they use to cancel the other sounds and it gives me a head ache if the headphones are on both ears. If I put them on one ear, I get nauseous.
And I love my Sennheisers (Also an audiophile).

So I went onto Amazon to scour Sennheister headphones.
My wallets, some of past and one of present are now extremely agitated.
The quality must be pretty damn good.

Wallets? LOL. My wallet is over ten years old...
And if you decide against the Senns, you could get these
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
Cruel joke aside:
If you want to find something: Check out those MonoPrice 8323s, check out Audio Technica, Sennheiser is great of course but I say stay above the 200 series, spend some time on Head-fi reading reviews by prices and what not.

Haha, My current is the giant one.
Balling on an Audiophile budget is fairly hard though. I'll check those out though.

It's the same 4.2 v8 (~340bhp) that's in the B6 S4s, timing chain can be a nightmare repair but solid otherwise.
