Any idea on prices (I haven’t looked at their website yet)??
I’m in America and he had an accent so not looking into their pricing. Just liked where he located the amp. And enjoyed his reaction to 992 interior. Looks like he lost his breath for a second.

Agree that a hidden amp is key - in the frunk or under the seats. It seems like many of the upgrades for 991 would also work in the 992 - replace with quality speakers and an amp with DSP for tuning. What I don't like is the comments about the buzziness of the doors and need to add sound deadening. Not in my T.

I’ve emailed them requesting prices, will post them once I have them but no reason why the same equipment / location in the car couldn’t be done by a USA installer.
The same would apply in reverse if you guys find a good aftermarket system over there we could get it installed here.

I read similar comments on 718 model.

A guy on Macan forum bought top-end speakers to fit into his 718 and the audiophile was decent enough to tell him that the new speakers don’t make any positive difference, in fact there was more resonance from the 718 door, making it worse.
They fitted sound deadening tape to the door sheet-metal behind the speaker and audio quality improved considerably.

The shark blue car isn't mine - just found it on YouTube so re-posted. Mine does have SD and will post lots of pics when it arrives (hopefully next month)

As always, thank you for the pics @Macboy !!! Since I won't be taking delivery for another 8 weeks + (due to PECLA delivery not being available until 6/14), very nice to see some real-world pics of exactly what all of this waiting is for (aside from the sun-roof and interior).

Great spec! Worth a repost. The green in the seat cushions really doesn’t show up in photos. Probably the lighting. As a stitching connoisseur I really appreciate 🦎 lizard.
