You have obviously never experienced the pain of a prolonged car trip with Bose. I never knew what ear fatigue was prior to the unfortunate experience of owning Bose car audio.

Thankfully, most car manufacturers have stopped using Bose.

I have a Bose system in my A4, and it's not bad at all. I still prefer my headphones at home, but for a car audio system of the mid-2000s, it's pretty good. I thought manufacturers mainly stopped using it over license fees.

It is obnoxious that it's a 2ohm system where everyone else uses 4ohm, so you can't add/upgrade/modify easily.
