'Unique' sound experience in new A8

The new Audi A8 due on sale in Ireland early next year will offer a very high-end sound system, writes Brian Byrne.

What the company describes as a 'unique' experience of 3D sound in the rear of the car will be facilitated by there being no less than 23 speakers connected to the Bang & Olufsen system.

The 3D sound technology was first provided by Audi in the Q7 released in 2015.

In the A8 it will have a special setting for movie music, offering what Audi says is a replication of the movie sound quality at cinemas.
