I noticed that the 2004 symphony II sounded different (enhanced sound quality, i may add) when I got a loaner from a dealer from 2002 symphony II which is what i have in my a4. Is there any differences? Did audi make any change between the years? If so, what were the changes? Just curious... Thanx!!

 

for starters, the 2004 Sym II has a button for OEM satellite radio. If you want to add this, it requires a new HU, SAT module and SAT antenna. These new HU's cost $400+ from the dealer. Actually, I have one for sale if you are interested ($200 + shipping).

See my link below for more content on this.

Can you speak to me in a little more detail about the SAT hookup on the 2004? I have a 2002 A6 with the Symphony II, and would love to integrate the OEM Sirius package.

I saw your link with the great writeup on retrofitting a 2001 A6 (originally equipped with Symphony I) with a Symphony II, but I think 80% of that is unnecessary in my '02. Would that be correct? It's my understanding that my car already has all the necessary CAN-BUS stuff, and that if I could simply get my hands on an '04 Symphony II with the SAT button, plus the Audi OEM satellite receiver and wiring harness, I'd be good to go. Though I'm not sure where that leaves me as far as an antenna... or is that part of the OEM satellite kit?

Any guidance is appreciated.
