2 stereos. What is the difference?

Good morning!
I have 2007 MINI R56 ONE 1.4 MT.
i had a chance to buy a couple of stock stereos for cheap (see picts). Does anyone know where to find full specs for them?

From: Germany
Searching for the part numbers on realoem revealed that one of them is a "Radio MINI CD" and the other one a "Boost CD Radio". According to a german price list from 2010, the "Radio MINI CD" is the standard radio. "Boost" is optional and adds mp3 playback. There is also an option "Visual Boost" (adding the large display from the navigation system).

Whether or not this is applicable to other production periods and/or markets I don't know.

Well, yes, it is written on their faces: mini CD and mini boost CD, and yes, according to marketing info the second one can read mp3. However, I am wondering about tech specs. Does boost CD have 100Hz filtering on rear channels for example?
Output wattage, speakers ohm range...
