Cheers Ash 🙌

Thanks Sanjeev! 🙂

You’re welcome 👍

Thank you for the kind words, I’m glad it helped 🙌

Thank you 🙌

Thank you 😊 it’s a very worthwhile upgrade!

Thanks Frederik! 🙌

Yesterday I fitted the dash speaker and it has much more sound. Will change the others in the back next week! Thanks for the video mate

Merci pour vos commentaires - je suis heureux que cela vous ait aidé !

Thanks David 😊 I wish I had more time to spend on the hobby but you know how it is!

Good work Chris! Other than that crappy screw by the screen it’s pretty easy right. The mounts make a proper job of the swap. 🙌

@@TheThrottleCable totally easy! did you have to cut away of the insulation behind the back speakers? I did, or the magnets would not fit

@@cgoldens no mine just popped right in - I guess thats luck of the draw 😄

Cheers Will - to be honest hearing the sound third hand recorded in my car and played back through your phone/computer/tele probably wouldn’t be representative of the quality anyway - but I promise they are a decent step up on stock audio!😁

Thank you 😊 regarding the door woofers I was not planning to change them. They actually seem quite good vs the full range speakers and I’m happy as is. However I know a few owners have replaced the woofers and upgraded the stock amplifier with good results. Depends how far you want to go 😁

Get a pccm÷ from your local dealership. It is a lot but adds modernizing to the 996. Mine is BOSE and works great. Also porsche still sells those speakers and they're are not unreasonably priced. Did the 4 speakers in my daughters 986S that go behind the driver.

Cheers Theo 👍

I was going to leave the door speakers ‘as is’ as they seem to sound ok. If I hear a car with them changed and it’s a significant upgrade then maybe I will!

No answers to this one - I think your best bet is to look on rennlist, I believe a few have tackled this upgrade on there

Hi Andrew, I’m not sure which little subwoofer you reference. My car has no sub, just the six speaker configuration two in dash, two woofers in doors, two in rear cards.

@@TheThrottleCable My error, I was talking about the two woofers in the doors. I appreciate it. Thanks again

@@andrewsilverman7954 as long as you have the correct harness it will work fine with the 4 or 6 speaker setup. In the 4 speaker setup you’re running the speakers straight from the head unit, in the 6 speaker setup you are still utilising the amp in the frunk (via the line level converter in the harness, like my setup).

Hi, the outgoing speakers are actually 4 ohms from the Porsche sound package - it’s likely the later Bose 2 ohms system you’re thinking of 👍

@@TheThrottleCable Actually, I've literally just been tearing the car down and am mid-way of installing the PCCM Plus, I took the front dash speaker out as part of the cable routing and noticed it's a 4ohm unit, that makes my life a *lot* easier, looks like I'll be following your guide even more closely after-all :) I also purchased one of the Bose rear parcel shelf bass boxes, which looks like it'll be possible to wire into this amp too, so hopefully this is going to sound great when it's finished! :)

Yes sir, standard factory amplifier and working well 👍

This sounds like it could be dodgy connections, especially as the rears are now working again. Have you tried to remove them since to check the condition of the cables and connections? That would be my first move 👍

Next move would be to process of elimination. Test all the new gear works. Eg try speaker that was working in a position that wasn’t. Try cable adapter that was working in a position that wasn’t. See if the problem travels or if it’s with the existing kit in the car.

I’ve got a little update to share - I’m on it 😄

As long as the speakers you replace them with are the same impedance/ohms you should have no issue to replace them

@@TheThrottleCable I have heard that both dash speakers and both rears are 2 Ohms. Is that your understanding? If so, and I was able to find speakers with that, then I would just need to make sure that they had the same/similar depth and dimensions of the ones you have confirmed to fit?

@@davidpatterson5447 to double check just take a speaker out - the ohm will be printed on the rear of the magnet. Then it will just be a like for like swap with the correct ohm speaker to work with the existing setup.

@@TheThrottleCable Thank you very much. I will report back for the benefit of others when time allows for me to source items and complete the work. 👊🏻

Check the link in the description buddy 👍

Thank you, and yes I probably should, shouldn't I, online safety and all that!

I had a good run out at the weekend in the 996, and the new speakers have made a marked improvement to the sound and volume in the cabin. Especially given the modest price point 👍

@@TheThrottleCable what was the company ? Do u think they ship to sweden?

Couple of points. The new speakers have inbuilt tweeters so it’s not necessary. Also the new speakers are a step forward in terms of performance, so linking in old tweeters would likely negatively impact the resulting sound.

Thank you👍🏽

Wow, I’m shocked, why???
