How big is your Porsche fan? The automaker makes some of the best sports cars in the world without compromise, but also dabbles in some stylish home decor. The automaker has introduced the new Porsche 911 Soundbar 2.0 Pro, a limited edition speaker integrated with the 911 GT3 stainless steel exhaust system.
You can hang the piece on the wall or stand on the included base, and it looks huge. It features 2.1.2 virtual surround sound with Dolby Atmos DTS HD streaming. It has a 4K-compatible HDMI port and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, giving owners a plethora of playback options, but that’s not all. Porsche also integrated Apple AirPlay 2, Google Chromecast, and Spotify Connect into the system.

Multi-room synchronization is also possible. The new soundbar is compatible with several Porsche soundbars, such as the 911 Soundbar Special Editions and the 911 Soundbar Final Editions. The new Wi-Fi-enabled 911 Soundbar 2.0 Pro will also work with future Porsche Originals sound products as long as they are connected to the same network.
Porsche released another 911 Soundbar in 2016, which was also housed in the exhaust system of the 911 GT3. The new system is much larger than the previous one, retaining more of the car’s plumbing and making it more of a work of art than speakers. The new system is also more powerful, with over 300 watts of power on tap compared to the 200 watt system from six years ago.
The exhaust system looks like it was ripped straight from the car, with the high-gloss and matte-black exhaust tips adding a touch of contrast to the design. Porsche plans to limit speaker production to only 500 units. It has a €8,990 ($8,909 at today’s exchange rates) recommended retail price, and Porsche says it’s available now from Porsche Design Stores, select Porsche Centers, and online. However, it hasn’t shown up in the search results yet.
