Having read numerous threads between these 2 fountains of knowledge I think it's time maybe to have a bit more banter associated?

A recent post in the B8 forum mentioned that if you want a fight go to the 8V forum lol...

Anyway I will start it off..

The B&O system is far superior in the A4 even though it's older, like my wife...

'superior' B&O systems are wasted on A4's because of all the classical and taylor swift that gets played on them... its a heady mix i understand

I heard a rumor their is a "swift" mode on A4 drive select that sits some way below economy in terms of throttle and steering response that is the preferred option among A4 owners

I think the B8 guys have a point, the 8V forum does have problems.

Is the B&O system in the A4 the same as would be in the RS5?
The 8v B&O is head and shoulders over the RS5 B&O.

Think it is the same and you definitely need your hearing checking out then mate..
There have been numerous threads on how better the B&O system is in the B8...

I don't like Taylor Swift either :whistle2:

I have to disagree. I have had and lived with both systems, and now have neither, so like to think my view is unblinkered by the system/car I own.
The 8V is definitely better. Sounds far crisper and keeps that crispness to a higher volume. I like to turn the bass down a touch and the and treble up a touch, and for those purposes the 8V wins.

My wife has a Q5 with the upgraded Audi system and I think it's as good as the B&O was in the RS5.
All of that said, the soundtrack in the RS5 was vastly superior.
