The Porsche 911 Carrera S is a masterpiece of engineering and design, but the factory sound system doesn’t quite meet the car’s high-performance standard. With only basic audio components, it lacks the immersive, high-fidelity experience drivers expect from a luxury sports car. At MC AUDIO, we crafted a custom, high-end audio solution to elevate the driving experience for this iconic vehicle.
The Original Audio Setup
The factory-installed sound system in the Porsche 911 Carrera S (992) featured:
- 2x 8″ door woofers
- 2x 1″ tweeters
- No amplifier
This minimalist 4-speaker setup fell short in bass response, clarity, and overall sound depth, leaving plenty of room for improvement.
The Upgraded Audio System
To create a truly immersive listening experience, we designed and installed a fully tuned active 3-way sound system, featuring:
-
HELIX i7 1″ Direct-Fit Tweeters
These premium tweeters deliver crystal-clear highs and a balanced soundstage. -
HELIX i7 8″ High-End Woofers
Designed for precision bass, these woofers bring depth and power to the sound system. -
MATCH UP 8DSP Amplifier
The heart of the upgrade, this 8-channel amplifier powers the fully active system, enabling precise tuning for unmatched audio performance. -
MATCH USB HD Card
For high-resolution audio playback, this component ensures that every detail of your music is faithfully reproduced. -
Comprehensive Soundproofing
Advanced soundproofing on the doors and floor minimizes road noise and vibration, creating a pristine acoustic environment. -
Custom Sound Tuning
Tailored tuning ensures that every frequency—from deep bass to shimmering highs—is optimized for the vehicle.
A Holistic Audio Transformation
At MC AUDIO, we focus on seamless integration, aesthetics, and performance to deliver a perfect upgrade:
Amplification Excellence
The MATCH UP 8DSP amplifier provides the flexibility needed for a fully active 3-way system. Each driver (woofer, tweeter, and midrange) was precisely tuned, resulting in flawless audio balance. A custom bracket was designed to ensure the amplifier was securely mounted with a factory-like finish.
Speaker and Tweeter Enhancements
Replacing the factory speakers with HELIX i7 woofers and HELIX i7 tweeters brought exceptional clarity, tonal balance, and power. The tweeters were installed discreetly behind the original grilles, preserving the Porsche's clean aesthetic.
Soundproofing for Precision
We applied premium soundproofing to the doors and floor to eliminate unwanted vibrations and external noise, ensuring the upgraded components could perform at their best.
The Final Result
The upgraded audio system transformed the Porsche 911 Carrera S into a high-performance soundstage:
- Crystal-clear sound staging with pinpoint accuracy.
- Rich tonality across all frequencies, offering a luxurious listening experience.
- Deep, powerful bass with no distortion, complementing the sports car’s dynamic performance.
Seamlessly integrated, the system retained the Porsche’s original aesthetic while delivering a sound quality that matched its iconic driving experience.
