Hi,

All interesting of course. But, I am quite satisfied with the OEM system in my 986, it works well and has never faltered, although adding the OEM Rear Speaker kit did fill-in the sound nicely.

I realize that there's a lot of Bling factor, and bragging rights in having all the current Bells & Whistles, but there are no accoustics to a convertible to speak of, certainly not enough to justify spending $3k+ like I did on my Esprit.

I have a full blown Nak/Focal 8-way system in my Lotus, and it sounds better than my home system. But, for pure sound quality, it'd be a waste in the Boxster.

Then again, playing Hendrix, Thorogood or the Stones through a 12" 200W sub would be unnatural. Today's music is much more compatible with that kind of system, but it's just not me...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
