I found this video on youtube that demonstrates to some degree the burmester sound system. It seems to be a fantastic option for the audio aficionados.

I haven't been able to experience the Burmester systems in any Porsche. But I will say that the Bose systems are just okay. My Taycan Bose system (and several other Porsche Bose systems I've had in the past) isn't nearly as good as the Bang and Olufsen system in my Audi E-tron.

Posted elsewhere in more detail, but I took a flash drive with FLAC files to my dealer and played them in the Bose and Burmester cars. The Bose is the best Bose I've heard in the car, but with the Burmester there is just no comparison.

This has been mentioned a few times but worth noting.. don't spec Burmeister without also speccing insulated glass.

Basically Standard > Bose > Bose w/ Insulated Glass > Burmeister w/ Insulated Glass.

Burmeister without insulated glass is like a delicious hamburger without a bun.

Burmester in the Taycan is as good a sound system as I've heard in a car and this includes my RS6 with B&O which was superb.

Totally agree - Insulated glass is close to essential. with Burmester ticked.

Burmester in the Taycan is just awesome. I never had a car sound system sound this good. Don’t think I’d buy it for a 911 because of the engine noise, but in the very quiet Taycan it is amazing and for me was a good spend.

Agreed. I have top-end B&O setup in an Audi S7 and the Burmester sound is a upgrade. I got lucky in that I wasn’t planning to spec it in my Taycan build, but ended up taking delivery of a car someone else had spec’d with the Burmester option and I’m very happy with it. To be sure it isn’t inexpensive...but know the sound is awesome.

Don't be, it's all relative. I demoed it and any home system for the same price will blow it out of the water.

Problem is, that I can’t play that loud in my house :)

Also, although I spent many times more than the Burmester option on the Taycan, on my home stereo, I spend 50 times more listening to music in the car than at home. As usual, overkill... other than a Burmester Power Conditioner, I have 4 Classe 600W amps feeding two Bowers and Wilkins 800 Diamond speakers. Also have quite a few other not-cheap goodies. All this to hear near-perfection sound, but which I only use a few hours a month. The power on this setup is like having a Taycan with 2000HP ! I use the power for fidelity and not so much for decibels...
So basically Burmester in Taycan much better investment in my case !
