Best bang for buck in my opinion for the 911 would be to first upgrade the speakers in the doors if they are original, or been in there a long time, next,,, fit a pair of rear speakers to the shelf, but either buy, or make some angled enclosures for them, don't just rely on sinking them into the shelf, another reason people don't get decent sound in cars is because they don't take particular notice of the correct left and right phasing of the speaker wires, if the phase is out, then you will get a rather odd sound, with very limited if any bass response, hope this helps.

Should I upgrade the radio to a newer unit, like the Blaupunkt SQR 46 Bremen or the Porsche Classic unit?

Or, should I add speakers to the rear shelf? Maybe a subwoofer? An equalizer? What is my best bet to improve sound quality?

Thank you in advance!
