2022 AUDI E-TRON GT BANG & OLUFSEN 16-SPEAKER SOUND SYSTEM REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides an in-depth assessment of the 16-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system in the 2022 Audi RS e-tron GT. While impressed with the overall clarity, crisp highs, and well-balanced mid-range, the reviewer notes a slight lack of punch in the default bass tuning, which can be easily rectified by a minor EQ adjustment. A key criticism is the limited equalizer options, featuring only treble, bass, and subwoofer adjustments, lacking a mid-range setting and a more granular nine-band EQ typically found in luxury vehicles. Despite this, the system is lauded for its powerful bass response, capable of shaking mirrors and being felt in the seat without rattling. The reviewer ultimately awards the system an 'A' for objective sound quality, and subjectively considers it the best system heard in a sporty car of this size, surpassing even the 911 Turbo S and Maybach systems. Wireless Apple CarPlay is supported, but Android Auto is wired only.
