Default Help: An aftermarket in-dash CD deck (in Bose System)...

I have a 99' Avant, and I wanted to have an aftermarket in-dash CD deck replacing my current cassette deck. I went to this car stereo place, and they told me that replacing the factory unit with the aftermarket CD player will destroy the sound of the Bose System.

Has anyone tried this and disappointed with the result?

Thanks in advance.

Default I've look on the Bose web site and

it is told that any aftermarket cd player will not work properly with the rest of the Bose system, the speakers.

Default In Europe Audi offers a Tuner/CD as an option on '02 models

Don't know about any loom differences between a pre '02 and an '02 but this might be the easiest/cheapest solution.
