A Porsche forum would probably be your best bet. No doubt there are forums dedicated to the 944.
As a veteran mobile audio installer, I can tell you that you’ll definitely want a system that allows for EQ, preferably by way of DSP. I imagine some headunits have it built-in these days. You can get analog EQ solutions from the Audio Control company. I’m not sure what the top brands are these days. Years ago, they were Eclipse, Audison, Hertz, Memphis, Pioneer Elite, and Soundstream to name a few.
I owned a near-mint 89’ cobalt blue 944S when stationed in Germany 16 years ago. Fun car but abysmal to drive in the snow.

Where do you feel I should start on my info finding journey?
why would you not go to a car stereo shop and see
what they can do ?
|
Assuming you are not going to do the work yourself, I would start by finding a good shop that has a lot of experience with your specific vehicle and can work on it without destroying it. Then see what they recommend for your car.

a car stereo shop will want to sell what they carry, which is understandable. Asking questions here is part of what this site is about, music/audio enthusiasts sharing experience....this has been part of this site since Arne started it.

@jusam
every reply has suggested that you go to a car audio shop. car audio is a lot different than 2 channel audio.. i am sure if you visit a shop you can tell them what you are wanting and they can help you.

Is there really such a thing?

sooo busted... old hand acting out like an idiot using a new burner account
bravo! 👏

A tune and a good exhaust will do the trick....
|
"high end auto music systems" Every word is a contradiction of the others.
|
I'd rather listen to an engine with a fresh tune-up than any auto audio system.
Esp. a Porsche...or any other 'sport vehicle'....
My attention in a car is getting 'there' alive without being too distracted by what's on my 'droid to make the miles fade.... ;)

jjss49 You are correct. I had been on here from near the start and did a deal with an abusive parasite (non-payment,etc.) and stayed away for some time and started again with a new user name...as per the suggestion of a lady at AudiogoN.
|
Jerry, I understand and appreciate your thoughts. From the better sports cars and luxury vehicles I have had, the driving with music has been a part of the pleasure. Since I raced various classes of cars at Road America, and others, I can appreciate the mechanical, exhaust, tire and other sounds....never enjoyed the sounds of being passed.

OK, let me just say I was a customer of Arnie's at Accutronics in Ann Arbor before he even started Audiogon. He and his assistant were selling used components out of the basement floor of the store on ebay.com; that worked pretty well, which is what gave him the idea.
