'01 A6 symphony advice?
I want to get ipod and sat radio support - it sounds like the easiest way is to get a new aftermarket h/u, is that true?
since bose system is proprietary, i am assuming that I basically need to bypass the amps to all the speakers including the sub.
if that's the case, does it mean my sub will be left unpowered? does anyone have any picture?

You can go either way....
..the BOSE system will not prevent you from adding Ipod or Satellite radio.
The SAT radio tuner works on the antenna line, and you will not have to bypass anything.
Just a FYI...there is just one amp running the whole BOSE system.

The USA Spec ipod adapter sold at Crutchfield allows for a second input device...
You might want to check it out. For $150 or so, you get a powered iPod connection and an additional set of RCA inputs for a sat radio source.<ul><li><a href="http://www.crutchfield.com/p_581PA11VW6/USA-SPEC-iPod-Interface.html?tp=120">link</a></li></ul>

iPod and aux input for your Audi vehicle
We have a kit for that car. It is the i-Audi-R kit. It has been upgraded for the 5 Volt USB Charging System to support all the newer iPod models. With the DICE Electronics iPod interface, it also gives you an audio input for any other audio device taht you want to plug into it.
