What are you doing with the existing Bose Sub ??
Musicar Audio Development for Macan w/ BOSE
7
Hey folks!
Some of you may know me from other forums, but my name's Nick and I run the Porsche Audio division at Musicar Northwest. We're a local shop in Portland, OR that specializes in custom audio and radar/laser integrations, but we've also been building plug-n-play Porsche audio system upgrades for the last 7 years. In that time we've helped hundreds of Porsche owners improve their experience with music in their car — I'm sure there's a handful of you here that are running our Stage One tweeter upgrade in your Macan or a Stage Two/Three in a 991 or 718!
Later this month we'll be working on development in a '22 Macan with Bose. This is going to be for our Stage Two solution. If you're unfamiliar with our upgrade paths, that's going to include:
Here are some photos of what that setup looks like in the 718 now:

I'll be keeping a log of our progress as we work through developing the mounting systems, wiring harnesses and tuning the sound processor for the Macan's acoustics. If all goes as planned we should have that process wrapped up by the end of the month. That puts production somewhere in the Late August/Early September timeframe.
I wanted to also use this post to gauge some pre-production interest and see who might want to get involved in one of these upgrades. We typically launch new applications with a group buy to help promote the new solution and help early adopters save some dollars on the inaugural build queue.
Let me know what you all think and what questions anyone has. Feel free to PM me with questions, but I encourage asking those publicly to help anyone else that might have the same query.
Looking forward to finally adding the Macan to the roster for our Stage Two systems!
