Burmester . . . yay or nay?
#3
I would say yay. Coming from a jaguar that had a 525-watt B&W sound system, and hearing my dad's range rover's 1200 watt Harmon/Kardon sound system, and then compared to the 1000-watt Burmester found in the Cayenne, they don't even compare. So if you want a awesome sound system, then yes, because I bet you if a 1200-watt H/K system does not compare, then I bet you the bose will not compare either. I may be wrong, but from my hearing, it is a beast of a sound system and I feel you might miss out, but it is all up to you.

Spent a few minutes on a Pana that had a Burmester with a very good quality Cd of mine (none of the Cayenne's on the lot had it)....mind blowing. I will custom order one with it.

Thank you! Very helpful, but I still cannot come to a decision. The Bose on my 997 Turbo seems fine for me. I wouldn't be complaining if I didn't have the option. But now, I keep thinking if I will regret it if I don't get the Burmester. Thanks for all your advice (which seems to be get it). Keep those comments coming. Thank you all!

I would agree with dimf, in that the cost of the Burmester is probably less than just a preamp or whatever Burmester home component. But it all comes down to your ears, you need to A-B the Bose and Burmester on consecutive test drives, not just with the car sitting still. If the Burmester doesn't blow you away, stick with the Bose. For me it was a no brainer, but YMMV.

Yikes, I feel the Bose in my 997TT is absolutely unacceptable. I can't believe they'd put crap like this in a $135k+ car.

Goes to show the genius of Dr. Bose......in marketing, not hi fi!

Simple logic: If in doubt don't go for it...unless you have cash to burn. This is the single most expensive option (if I'm not mistaken) when you try to custom order the Cayenne.
