I have played with GALA a little, and found that the effect is
quite subtle.  It does compensate the volume level but it is
difficult to discern, as it should.  A properly-functioning
GALA system should make the *apparent* sound level constant.
If you were to be able to hear the effects then it would be
over-compensating!

BTW, the current issue of Motor Trend magazine has a review
article about the Audi/Bose stereo in the A4Q.  They gave it
high marks.

Also, the current issue of Road & Track magazine has an update
on their long-term-test A4Q.  They have put 14K miles on the car
and so far all is A-OK.  They have very good things to say about
the car, especially the quattro aspects.  They have also installed
a navigation system on the A4Q and there is a separate article
about it.
