Can you share with us which brand/model sound processor you are using? Also, is it installed under the amp right off the battery/stock amp?

The sound processor is a very basic one, its a Cache COE6. It was installed in the compartment on the left side of the cargo area where the air compressor was located.

As for the liner, I was worried about that also, but the installer assured me it would not make any noise, and he was right, it does not interfere with the sound at all.

I am probably not going to upgrade my sound system in my 2014 Premium Plus, but I am not terribly pleased with it; not annoying, but certainly not where it should be. I hate to say it, but the sound system on the 2014 RDX I test drove, was way, way better than on my car.

Come on, Audi!
