hi all,
Firstly apologies if the answer to this is hidden elsewhere in the forum. Had a search but can't find everything I need. I'm about to order a new UK S3 sportback but I'm not getting much sense out of Audi's literature on the various options for playing music. From what I have gathered:
Tech pack, which I'm getting, offers two SD cards, CD/DVD.
All very nice, but I usually stream music from spotify on either my Galaxy S6 (USB 2.0) or iPhone 6 (lightning). I assume I could stream easily via Bluetooth but can anyone confirm a) is the sound quality any good and b) if you can control tracks and playback from the steering wheel or dash when using Spotify over Bluetooth?
And then if I don't use Bluetooth but go hard wire, what are my connectivity options? I'm not bothering with Audi Phone Box as it looks fairly irrelevant but from what I can tell I'll need to get an Audi proprietary (eww) lightning cable for the iPhone and/or USB cable for the Galaxy. Correct? If so where do these plug into (centre armrest?) and do these also enable track control and playback management via the dash and steering wheel?
Any advice or thoughts welcome from current A3/S3 owners who connect their mobile devices (and ideally spotify) up to the car!
