Re[2]: Speakers on my 90CS Quattro.quattro-digest V4 #3049

I think what he meant was, replace the rear speakers with new after-market or 
(non-amplified) speakers.  Although you may need an separate amp, depending on 
the head unit.  What some people also do is disconnect the rears altogether and 
get a subwoofer.  But, then you may want to change out the fronts for a higher 
quality speaker.

NOOOO!  The new speakers will do just the same thing--my dealer replaced 
the rear speakers 3 or 4 times and they all did the same thing.

It shouldn't be; the radio is like in all other Audis so it will turn on 
when the car is off.
