Bang & Olufsen is a world renown provider of high quality AV products... its association with Audi is one year old as the same company introduced its first advanced Sound system customized for Audi A8 and S8 in 2005...It was also voted ‘ best sound system ‘ at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show .
Audi has unassuming faith in their ability, which is the reason why the new Audi R8 is also outfitted with an exclusive audio system from Bang & Olufsen.
These two brands perfectly compliment each other’s technological proficiency. The Audi R8 not only earned accolades for its stunning sporty look, its sound system also won heavy appreciation at the Paris Motor Show.
Bang & Olufsen have exclusively crafted this sound system for The Audi R8 that delivers unmatched visual experience and sound quality. The Audi R8 has 12 loudspeakers driven by 10 discrete amplifiers producing a total of 465 watts. The entire sound system design, features, machined and anodized aluminum details, which enhance the stunning interior of the car.
The sound system is designed to compensate for the engine noise but it does not eliminate it totally. Thus, it is ensured that even if there is a powerhouse in the backyard the essence in terms of the driving experience stays very real.
We are very happy about expanding the cooperation with Audi. And we are really excited to present a Bang & Olufsen Sound System tailor-made for such a fantastic car as the Audi R8. Today, you can buy very exclusive sports cars with sound systems that don’t reflect the same value. We believe, however, that those interested in high-end sports cars deserve a good sound system in their cars as well. With this new sound system we introduce a new variant of our automotive sound systems and demonstrate our ability to tailor-make Bang & Olufsen systems for different types of cars.
