Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi, I recently bought a 2010 Boxster and I got the original window sticker. It says "premium sound". I can't find what that means anywhere? Is it just the standard sound with a fancy name? Is it just extra speakers? Does it have a separate amp? if there is no amp, I may try to upgrade to an apple play unit. But if there is an amp, I believe I will need to buy a $900 adapter optical adapter cable - not worth it. Thanks a
I believe premium sound is what you hear when you open the throttle wide...the wail of the engine, the rush as the speed mounts... It's a Porsche exclusive, honed over years of development of that beautiful flat six engine!
And it sounds best with the stereo off. Silly me.
Is there a bump in the passenger footwell up against the center console? This is the Bose subwoofer which belongs to the premium sound. If so, it for have a power amp.
In 2010 (and I believe all 987.2 years) there were 3 "levels" of audio. standard (only on base cars) Sound Package Plus (option on base, std on 'S) Bose (optional on all) No idea what "premium" is. You might find this informative - View attachment Porsche Cayman_MY10_PCA.pdf
Thanks.. I believe I have the sound package plus. But I am guessing. I will go hunting for the sub woofer.
I own a 2010 Boxster also and I have the Bose stereo but the sub is in the back of the seats (in the space beneath the roll bars/windscreen)there are two ports ...no bump in center console ..on my build sheet the code was 680 Bose high end sound package. So when I here about the bump in the passenger footwell is this how Bose set it up in previous years ?
