Anyone upgraded the Bose system?

[rsmonkey918]

My NS rear speaker buzzes as well- probably the circular bit in the middle coming adrift- happened to one of the rear speakes in my old 1.8T Q- did it myself- they look pretty crappy but have to say I too am pretty impressed with the system on the whole- but would like to know if its the signal processing or speakers that dictate how it sounds? Looked at the specs for Bose a couple of years ago and was surprised to see the system in the TQ was the most powerful in terms of dB, but then it had six mid range and two tweeters and the boot as a resonator- the RS$ only has 4 mid range and 2 tweeters- and I can't fing a sub-woofer either- although think the TQ had one somewhere! But as it never gave me a problem I can't be sure. One other thing was that the grille over the OS rear door speaker had a couple of cracks in it which wasn't immediately apparent but which gave a similar buzz- tried to do it myself but couldn't work out how to get the door cards off so gave it to Audi Camberley without getting a quote first- 2 technicians, 4 hours later, £225 poorer- you know the story......... the grilles only cost a tenner each if memory serves.....

Surely someone must know where the sub is ?

From memory it is located in the boot compartment behind a panel on the O/S.

Its in the n/s rear,its under the multi changer and navi unit,its a large moulded and shaped unit that looks a right pain to get out

Cheers my dears, I've always wondered

Its not a bad sound from the Bose given its 7 years old, but the more modern systems kick it into touch no problems. I've got Bose in my Cayenne and its just in a different league to the RS4 system.

I have a buzzing door speaker in my RS. What do you guys recommend as a direct replacement?
