this is achieved despite the system’s
remarkably low overall weight thanks to
intelligent Burmester
® lightweight technol -
og y.
The pure, sport y design makes it clear
that the appeal of the Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System is as
much about the visual as it is the audio.
Typically Porsche.
1–3 Burmester® High-End Surround Sound System
Conceptually, we have broken entirely
new ground. The analogue and digital
filters of the crossover technology used
have been optimally defined for their
installation location and finely tuned
following extensive in - car audio testing.
The perfect interaction of all loudspeaker
chassis delivers superior bass foundation,
definition and impulse accuracy.
As yet unequalled in the Boxster, the
result is a natural and richly textured
spatial sound, even at top volume. All of
Components used in the car are as
sophisticated as the components that
Burmester
® puts into its high-end home
audio systems. How do the numbers
sound? 12 amplifier channels with a total
output of 821 wat ts and 12 loudspeakers
including an active subwoofer. The active
subwoofer is integrated in the bodyshell
itself. Not only does this provide ideal
conditions for the sound, it is consistent
with the principles of light weight con -
struction as applied in motorsport.
Burmester® High-End Surround
Sound System.
Any car manufacturer can integrate a
sound system into a vehicle. Why not go
one step further and embed the driver in
a sound system? That was the aspiration
for Porsche and Burmester
® in the devel -
opment of the optional Burmester
® High-
End Surround Sound System. Conceived
and tuned specifically for the Boxster,
this is high-end technology ‘made in Ger -
many’.

(AUX, USB e.g. for iPod®)
1) May be incompatible with some copy- protected audio CDs (CDR) or audio CDs/ DVDs (CDR Plus, PCM).2) Only in conjunction with CDR.3) Only in conjunction with CDR Plus or PCM.4) Only in conjunction with PCM.5) For information on compatibility with iPod® and iPhone® models, please contact your Porsche Centre.6) Mobile phone preparation or telephone module in HFP mode: the use of a mobile phone inside a car may cause an increase in the interior
electromagnetic field strength and, accordingly, in the electromagnetic radiation to which passengers are exposed. If a cradle is used to mount
the mobile phone, the field strength in the passenger compartment can be reduced because the phone can be connected up to the external
aerial (feature depends on how specific mobile phones connect to the cradle). For information about the availabilit y of a cradle for your mobile
phone, please contact your Porsche Centre. The use of the telephone module for PCM via Bluetooth
® SAP connection or with inserted SIM card
prevents exposure to electromagnetic radiation as only the car’s external aerial is ever used.
7) For receiving digital T V signals (DVB -T and MPEG -2 encoded signals) where available.8) Use of Aha Radio services with the optional telephone module with cordless handset requires activation of HFP mode in PCM.
