If Dolby and DTS get you more excited than MPH and RPM, then the 911 Soundbar could be for you.

The Soundbar has been made by Porsche Design and uses an original rear silencer and twin exhaust from a 911 GT3. It’s then been fitted with a 2.1 virtual surround sound system with an integrated subwoofer, with total output power rated at 200W.

It’s capable of decoding Dolby soundtracks and has DTS TruSurround virtual surround processing.
