- 2020 Taycan 4S
Have you compared the lossless classical music streaming service Idagio with FM radio? Although, as others have posted, we do not know what losses occur in the analog/digital conversions between the streaming service on your phone and the car's audio system. Also consider that the Taycan provides a much quieter cabin than pretty much any other car, particularly if you specify the noise and thermally insulated glass. In my opinion, the combination of lossless streaming and an unusually quiet cabin makes the Burmester system a worthwhile upgrade.Hope this isn't a rude question but how good is it?
I have been an audiophile for over 50 years and my main stereo cost more than the Taycan but I mainly listen to classical music and almost all of that has too big a dynamic range to enjoy in any car system I have heard so far - the quiet bits get lost in background noise and the loud bits are beyond any system's capacity to play properly I have heard yet.
Normally I just end up listening to a compressed-for-radio classical music channel, which is not bad in the car (but absolutely appallingly bad on the home system) rather than my own music files.
I would be concerned to pay much extra for Classic FM only listening...
