Posted June 12, 200520 yr Bang & Olufsen is designing an in-car system for the Audi A8. Looks like it is actually going to be pretty decent. No mention of a subwoofer, but if they do it right, I guess they won't need one.http://www.carsound.com/UBB/ultimatebb.php...c;f=18;t=009872
June 12, 200520 yr Active speakers are housed behind the covers, each with its own individual amplifier. This allows the sound properties to be adjusted accurately in accordance with the precise function of the speaker within the overall concept.Fully active? Hmm...might be good, if they can get away from the "more power + more speakers = better sound" approach that Mark Levinson took with Lexus to sell a lot of those units...
June 13, 200520 yr I can't imagine how to effectively use 14 speakers in a car, or fit 14 amplifiers in there (even if they are palm-sized thats quite a bit of mass to hide).
June 13, 200520 yr If it was a 7.1 system That would be the only reason I could justify 14 speakers in a vehicle.
