Porsche’s Burmester 3D system is the first production-ready automotive audio setup built around gallium nitride, arriving in 2027.

Porsche will apply GaN to a 400-watt subwoofer amplifier, cutting heat loss versus silicon and improving efficiency.

GaN lets engineers shrink amplifier heat sinks about 20% and reduce passive component size without losing output.

Porsche just filed several patent applications for a car speaker upgrade, and the story is not really about volume. The company says its new Burmester 3D High-End Surround Sound System is the first production-ready automotive audio setup built around gallium nitride, a semiconductor…
