back in early 25' my dealer let me take home a turbo with Burmester and base 4 with Bose, and I think the Bose was fantastic but Burmester sold me instantly. I think the tweeters on the pillars helps a lot just by positioning. I do think it is overpriced tho. I wish Burmester was available on all 911s

My dealer said "it wasn't worth the money" to upgrade over the Bose, which is subjective, but I took that advice. I wish now that I kept the upgrade, I don't think the Bose system in the Macan is that great for a premium car.

I also find the sound level too low, so I end up cranking the volume to ~75% for 'normal' listening. In my M5 with HarmanKardon, it has plenty of punch and good sound level at ~50% volume, much higher and you will have ringing in your ears afterwards (like being in a night club )!
