The acoustic top is a little more quite, so +1 here
HOWEVER: Due to the extra thickness, it will be harder to close the top, meaning you will need to pull down the top manually the last 1/3 of an inch (sorry you're Candian, I meant the last centimeter) so that the latch mechanism grabs, at least that's how it turned out with my A5 acoustic top from Auto Tops Direct
My installer (who installed more than 100 Boxster tops) went through several cycles of trying to adjust it and either it looked bad (slacked) or it needed some manual help

The GAHH acoustic top is great. Night and day better than the OEM top.


I would not even consider getting an top that didn't have the acoustic material.
