Mitch,
I have one of these myself for my 993 but didn't install it yet. Are you running this unit without an external AMP? I mean just the headunit and then wired directly to the speakers? Reason for asking is that the 993s with the HiFi-option all have an external amå under the passenger seat (nokia I think). I just wonder what the difference in sound will be with or without the ext. amp.

The speed sensor is the red / white wire going into the wing control above the pass floorboard area...
Those newer Beckers ARE sweet, but not avail for the US. I tried - no NAV for the US with those. Same for the NAV discs for the old Becker - updates are avail for Europe - but not U.S.A.

Hi John! Just got this Becker on ebay, will let you know how I get on. My mate has the exact same in his 993 and it is perfect in this age of car. Cool and understated, no garish screens suckered onto the windscreen. Need some decentish speakers now..
