    In my opinion if you weren’t getting the BE then it’s not worth the £1-2k extra. For most at normal volumes it’s only mildly better. It is louder but to me not £1-2k better.
    You can get so much better aftermarket stuff for half that money.
    BE is worth it as the wheels, black trim as options on a sline is pretty much £2k so you are getting the bose for cheap otherwise to spec Bose on an sline it’s an overpriced option.
    Bose as discussed in another thread is a bit overrated. B&O however is a much better sound but then again not worth £6k

    The difference between standard system and BOSE is like night and day.
    The difference between BOSE and the B&O is like 10x night and day.

    Worth 6k? No chance!

    I have it. Would I get it again? Oh yes!

    Money no object we all would get b&o 😉
    My point was value for money I don’t think the bose is worth it if you don’t get it with the black edition.
    If it was a choice between something like air suspension or Bose then air would win but everyone budget/priority is different. For me I zone out when I do long distances and the stereo becomes just background noise.

    I was going to go for the Bose on current one (had it on previous one) but decided to give the B&O a try, despite the cost. That and in combination with the 360 laminated glass...wow! Dont quite understand why Audi UK decided not to have some of the options we do, available in the UK?!

    If it was an option I would have taken the 360 glass over bose 😄
    Different markets have different options and standard equipment. It’s like in Asia electric seats were standard equipment on the base models whereas until recently it was £1k+ option.
    The A6L is another that’s only available in Asia. I would quite fancy that for the extra legroom in the back. Might save my kid kicking and leaving footprints on the back of my white/silver seats 😄
    Ironically the average height over there is shorter than here in Europe but they get the extra legroom model 😄

    Yes its very strange that they get an L version of many cars and models from a long list of companies.

    I know at least in China size is might. They all want huge cars so they can be a bully on the road. Never seen anything quite like it in my time. The big range rovers likes cutting you off and weaving in and out of traffic cause they can and no one gets in their way just in case😄
    There is little to no order unlike over here where at least there’s a bit of common courtesy.

    Yeah I agree.. if your into your audio.. then you will have a more discerning ear... plus the quality of your audio sources will be more important/relevant to you.

    If you are an Audio person... the premium for the bose system (c£1000 at the time for me I think ) ....was good value in my eyes...
