The Porsche 996
Subwoofer Package
Are you
missing the lower range of your music?
Once again, Rod and crew have solved
the problem with lacking and poor quality bass response in
the 1999-2004 Porsche Carrera, Carrera 4, C4S, TT, and cabriolet) with
several different
subwoofer enclosures, with different levels for different budgets. Some that
fit the coupe only, some that fit both cab and coupe. Ask us about
running some quality door midbass drivers to really help fill in the entire
musical range. 'Great for any high quality well recorded music. We
also have great quality headunits (AM/FM/CD) with obvious sound quality that
makes a big difference-(and look oem!), especially when mated to quality amplifiers and nice
component speakers. We can provide everything you need to install your
own system. All quality components that we're tried and proven over many
years specifically on audio systems for the Porsche. We can provide
detailed installation instructions with your order with pictures, etc, and
toll free tech support. Rod travels to install on 911's, inquire about
having the creator of "the system" himself perform his work on your vehicle,
in your garage. So far, travelling has led Rod to at least 40 different
Porsche owners' houses. Pickup and delivery available in the Sacramento
and SF Bay Area. Read our customer comments
page if you get a chance, and we welcome comments, questions, and feedback.

"Absolutely incredible difference. I have owned 911's for over 20 years, many audio experiments: this one is by far the best" -Don Coburn - Bedford, NH
If
you are not completely satisfied with the subwoofer package,
we'll pick it up and issue a full refund, including shipping!
"I am delighted with the system, in particular the look and sound of the subwoofers. I am a fanatic of the factory look. Porsche could not have done a better job themselves. I feel this investment will add value to the car." Konrad Alvarino-Summerfield, NC

(996 cabriolet style enclosures, with dual 8" subs)
Porsche 996 rear floor (1999-present coupe or cab) subwoofer package (shown above):
The 996 rear floor enclosures come in pairs. Three words: Custom Fiberglass Fabrication. The rear of the enclosure is molded to sit in the rear floor area similar to the earlier 911 enclosure models. Seat travel is only affected about an inch from rearmost travel, keep in mind the 996 seats travel extremely far towards the rear of the car.
PKGSEC996cab - Enclosure pair, vinyl wrapped w/Shallow Subwoofer Systems by Earthquake (8 subs), custom grills $1299/pair
(Or have your pair custom painted to match your car's exterior with a flawless, high gloss finish, clearcoated with a urethane clear that you can wax for an additional $650. (Approximately 15 add'l hours required, with some custom labor, paintwork, and some expensive materials).
One of two subwoofer packages we build for the Porsche 996 coupe (1999+, C2, C4, C4S, TT):
(Level 2 shown, $1299 with high quality 5" Polykevlar subs)
here is another, brighter, picture showing the grill in place. This is how the Level 3 setup looks, level 1 & 2 are similar but have a rectangular grill to accomodate the three 6.5" JL subs.
One version of our 996 sub enclosure is a solid box built with MDF (wood) and wrapped in factory 996 carpet. This houses either a trio or quad set of 6.5" woofers or four 5" subs in a sealed configuration. It's similar to the Bose enclosure in the later 996's, only there is a grill on top and no seam in the carpet. (And Bose didn't present theirs until 2 years after the above one was built at our shop by me). Theirs is also flimsy plastic, reducing subwoofer efficiency and providing surfaces that can resonate and color the sound produced, all but preventing them from producing tight, good quality bass. (We used to use 8" subs, but it was just too tight getting the rear seatbacks upright.) A custom grill is included, elliptically shaped as the one above, beveled and with a pull strap or no strap for Level 2. We can make an alternate grill that is simply rectangular and extends to the interior panels on either side, making it difficult to distinguish any audio upgrades at all, for no extra charge.
PKGSEC9961: Level 1: Complete wood enclosure w/3 6.5" W0 subwoofers, factory carpet, custom grill..........$799
PKGSEC9961: Level 2: Complete wood enclosure w/ 4 Focal Polykevlar 5" subs, sealed, custom grill.............$1299
(both versions sit on the rear shelf behind the rear seats and do not affect rear seat function.)
For the 996 coupe, we have another version available, custom fabricated fiberglass and MDF, housing a pair of 10 or 11 subwoofers, wrapped in vinyl.
PKGSEC9963: Level 3: Complete enclosure w/2 high quality10W3 10 subs, sealed................... . ..$1999
PKGSEC9964: Level 4: Complete enclosure w/2 Focal 11 27V2 subwoofers, sealed ............. ..$2999
Or, get the ultimate solution, Rod's favorite, the ultimate sub setup:
"Level 11"Complete fiberglass enclosure painted to match your car's exterior, or any other color we can find in a flawless high gloss finish you can wax, loaded with dual Focal Polykevlar 27KX 11" subwoofers......................$3499
(Ask us about matching this package with some 3-way components for the doors, dash, and rear, for a smooth sounding, true 4 way system that'll knock your socks off.
This is a rear view of level 3. We can emboss Carrera or Turbo in the vinyl for an additional $150
Other subwoofer packages:
We also have some custom adapter plates and baffles for mounting 5" subs behind the rear side panels of the coupe with great bass response, though they don't produce bass with the authority of the various enclosures we can build for you.
For the Boxster and Boxster S:
We're currently looking to do more fitting and design work on an actual enclosure for the Boxster. In the meantime, we're achieving impressive results with good quality 5" subs in the factory door locations, when properly mounted. Please inquire for details!
