i have factory Hi Fi sound w/CDR-210 and am happy w/sound( only use for low volume fill and news ( but like adding factory options to my car).

would like to know if this is an easy change

are the wires there already

can i use my head unit

are the only two extra items needed a controler and amp?

what is a win -win price for the needed items

searched digital sound and got some info, but still have the above questions

thanks

If you are looking for the amp and DSP controller, I have them at a great price.

dr kenneth e garchow

i have attempted to contact you w/no success, i will continue to try, but do need to know if the items will work for me

LAURIER

Dr. Ken,

This might have been covered with a PCNA service bulletin some time back. I'll check when I get home tonight. If I remember correctly, The wires are already there and you just cut out the plastic in the door storage area for the controller. You should only expect marginally improved sound from the digital sound package over what you already have.

dr kenneth e garchow

thank you for info

and regarding sound, as long as it is not worse i am fine

Doc:

Like Laurier said, you need the Nokia DSP amp and the DSP controller. Need to knock plastic panel behind rubber cover in the driver side door compartment for the DSP controller location. Car is pre-wired.

HTH,

Ken:

It took me about 20 minutes to install mine. Like Pram stated above, you simply replace the amp located under the passenger seat and attach the control unit to the armrest. To do this you lift up the driver door storage bin cover, remove the rubber pad that covers the shallow pocket towards the very front of the bin, and cut carefully to expose the receptacle that plugs into the control panel. You then pop the panel into place.

I bought my digital sound package new-out-of-the-box from Suncoast Porsche for $79 - the original price was north of $1,900. I can't really tell the difference in sound quality.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions on installation. Good luck!

thanks

i will check @ suncoast, how can i pass up a $1,900 option for $79
having an options race w/ 993 friend.

LAURIER

Dr. Ken,

I found the retrofit installation bulletin. Not much in it you would not figure out on your own. I'll scan it and e-mail it to you.

dr kenneth e garchow

thanks, if nothing new dont bother, i know the time demands of owning a black car.

dr kenneth e garchow

suncoast says they dont think they ever sold the Dspg for $79
they want $149 now

LAURIER

Ken,

Did you get the installation instructions? Even at $149 it still may be worth it. Please let me know how it works out. The option race is on!

dr kenneth e garchow

i have your tech bulletin if that is your question, thank you!
if you are asking about install instructions w/items from suncoast i will see when they come.

so regarding the options race, are you going to be looking for a 4wd conversion set up?
