impressive sound experience,
you could opt for the Sound
Package Plus or BOSE

Sound System.
Controlling the CDR-30 could not
be more simple: the function keys
ensure that all the main functions
are directly at your fingertips,
and it is possible to conveniently
control all of the most important
functions using the but tons on
any of the optional multifunction
steering wheels.
Admit tedly, to outperform the

distinctively powerful Porsche
sound is a real challenge.
Nevertheless, we’ve tried and
have developed audio systems
that offer a genuine alternative.
CDR-30 audio system.
Both Cayman models are
equipped as standard with the
CDR-30 audio system with
a 5-inch display (monochrome)
and an MP3- compatible CD drive. An integrated six- disc CD/ DVD
autochanger is available as an
option.

Porsche Communication Management (PCM)
No time for instruction manuals?
We thought as much.
Porsche Communication Management (PCM)
including navigation module.
Navigation module for PCM.
The GPS navigation system
included with the optional PCM has
an internal hard drive containing
maps for most European countries.
A touchscreen enables rapid
destination input and instant view -
ing of traffic information and points
of interest (POIs) by simply allowing
you to touch the symbols on
the map. Route diversions, e.g.
the nearest service stations,
can therefore be incorporated
quickly and easily into the current
route guidance.
As the central control unit
for audio, navigation and
communications, the optional
PCM is multifunctional and
ergonomic to operate.
The main feature is the 6.5-inch
colour touchscreen with a durable,
easy-to - clean coating. Functional,
innovative and easy to use,
you will find the display very
clearly presented and a maximum
of five list entries per page
enable you to operate the unit
quickly and safely. Alternatively,
you can choose to operate PCM
using the rotary pushbut ton on
the right. Radio functions include up to 42
memory presets and an FM dual
tuner frequency diversit y with
RDS, which continuously scans in
the background for the best

signal. The integrated single CD/
DVD drive supports the MP3
format and – in combination with
the optional BOSE
® Surround
Sound System – is able to play
back music from audio and
video DVDs in 5.1 digital format.
An integrated six- disc CD/ DVD
autochanger with MP3 playback
is also available as an option for
PCM.

To complement these features,
the BOSE
® Surround Sound
System of fers a comprehensive
selection of equaliser presets for
customised sound. The dynamic
loudness function increases
bass levels as you decrease the
volume, thereby compensating for
the decreasing sensitivit y of the
human ear at these frequencies.
Moreover, the AudioPilot
® Noise
Compensation Technology uses a
microphone to continuously
measure the ambient noise inside
the vehicle and adapts music
playback automatically so that a
consistent sound is maintained in
all driving conditions.
The BOSE
® Surround Sound
System. A genuine – perhaps the
only – alternative to the character -
istic engine sound.
BOSE® Surround Sound System
for PCM and CDR-30.
The optional BOSE® Surround
Sound System is compatible with
both the CDR-30 audio system,
which comes as standard,
and the optionally available PCM.
Developed specifically for
Porsche, it has been optimised for
the Cayman models. A total of
10 loudspeakers, including
an active subwoofer and central
speaker, and a seven - channel
digital amplifier with a total output
of 385 wat ts, combine to
produce a truly memorable sound
experience.
During audio playback from audio
or video DVDs (only in conjunction
with the optional PCM), the system
is able to make full use of the
impressive sound spectrum of 5.1
digital recordings. With music
in 5.1 digital format, the sound
has already been recorded in a
multi- channel format and is
faithfully reproduced exactly as
the original. Five dedicated audio channels
(front lef t, front right, centre,
surround lef t, surround right)
deliver a sound that is as authen
-
tic as it is natural. The digital
5.1 surround sound is balanced,
lifelike and crystal clear. It ’s
a sound that ’s as true to a live
performance or cinematic
experience as you can get.
Of course, you can still play
traditional music sources such
as CDs (only format supported
by CDR-30), either in stereo or
in one of the surround modes
generated by the patented BOSE®
Centerpoint® system. The
algorithm of Centerpoint® II
extracts an even more precise
and realistic sound from the
stereo signal.
The SurroundStage
® signal
processing circuitry developed
by BOSE® assigns each individual
audio channel, whether sourced
from a DVD or generated by
Centerpoint
®, to a selected
combination of loudspeakers and
is therefore able to deliver an
optimally balanced surround
sound experience to both seat
positions.
