As above - just checking the option codes on my car and wondered what this actually is or is it just the big standard stereo? Car is a 2007 Boxster S with CD23. Thanks.

Thanks - I will count the speakers! I assumed my car has the standard stereo as its fairly underwhelming (much like the standard BMW stereo was in our E46) but an upgraded stereo wasn't really a consideration when buying.

Have counted but I can only find 7 speakers - 2 in each door panel and 3 on top of the dash board, can't find any behind the seats and doesn't sound like there are any back there.

How many speakers would a standard car have (ie without the sound package)?
