I have heard it said many times before " No highs no lows must be Bose"

Spend the extra on the PSE. It sounds so good you won't listen to a radio.

Bose definitely not worth the extra money when compared to other car/audio options.

Aftermarket?

I know a nice sport exhaust sound is great/cool when driving a sports car, but I don't know how people can just listen to that and say they don't need radio, especially if it is a daily driver.

I see your point but PSE is that good. Radio only becomes useful when sitting in traffic or waiting in the car for whatever...

I'd definitely get PSE over Bose, but Bose isn't horrible (I wouldn't specifically avoid it). Choosing both isn't unreasonable.

I have a JBL "upgrade" on my Prius and the BOSE on my C2S is not THAT much better. I was actually kind of disappointed. That said, the sound from my PSE, is where the real music comes from.
Any Burmeister people out there?

Well, I think daily driving on the freeway, you will keep the RPM at a constant level, at a constant speed. Probably won't hear much of the exhaust sound anyway. If there is no base stereo and only option is to get BOSE, I will pick that any day over PSE. I think a re-sale value of a car with stereo will probably be better than one with only PSE.

The car comes standard with a base stereo.

I understand that.

Just saying people said they only want to hear the sound of PSE instead of turning the radio on. I think daily driving the 911, that will not be so much fun anymore.

Over the past six years, I've had three 911s. A '08 C2S Cpe., a '10 C2S Cab., and a '12 C2 Cpe. All of them were daily drivers.

I'm currently, and anxiously, waiting for my new '14 C2S Cpe. (hopefully, mid-September).

I've had the standard audio, and the Bose, and I've had standard exhaust and PSE.

Believe me, the only thing I look forward to is that musical, intoxicating Porsche exhaust sound, especially PSE.

I LOVE it, and NEVER get tired of it (and quite rarely listen to the radio!)

I am very glad that you have such love for all those awesome cars.

You'll love the soundtrack of the 9A1 in the 991... I think it sounds fantastic out of the box, unlike the 997.2 I owned.
