Just to summarise my findings, as noted in the other thread:
1. The rear shelf speakers are actually working but very faint, rear doors are also weak.
2. To get any decent sound at all requires the Fader set heavily rearwards and Bass level raised.
3. Recoding (soft coding of Radio via VCDS) to 02207 has improved the sound hugely, bass is now noticeable from the rear shelf and it's much "richer" all round.
I believe setting the second digit to 2 is for A6/C5 (0 = A8/D2), though it's not well-documented online. This supposedly alters the "sound curve". 
(Other values for that 2nd digit are 1 (A4/B6), 3 (A4/B6 cabrio), 4 (TT) and 5 (A2?) - anyone want to test them?)
