Double Din Kenwood installed in a single din opening. Heater controls relocated down below. A little modification required. Custom made trim panel made to make the Kenwood look 100%
White LED lighting under the dash. Focal Speakers used in the front and rear.
Gave this plexiglass panel that goes on the trunk lid to Luxury Auto Body to work his magic.
Some fiberglass and MDF custom trunk setup. Fits like a puzzle.
JL audio badge from the W6v2 driver. Adds a nice touch. Added some lighting under the badge to give it a 3D effect.
three JL AUDIO subwoofers. 300/4v2 for the mids and highs. 500/1v2 for the subwoofers. Two Kenwood 7" screens on the sides. Leatherette finish. Clean and classy install

X5: Sound Deadening + Sub

Leave a Comment / Audio / By
ULTRA AUTO SOUND gets "hands on" on a brand new X5. Needs more bass and less road noise.
Trunk floor before sound deadening was installed.
Sound deadening covering all open holes and making the sound solid with no vibrations.
Door panel before sound deadening was put on.
Focal sound deadening put on all four doors. Helps with vibrations and blocks road noise.
JL Audio amplifier installed below the stock amplifier. JL audio amplifier powering 600W RMS to the subwoofer
back left compartment for the amplifier location.
Bass knob added for the new JL AUDIO amplifier and subwoofer to adjust the bass volume to the desired level. Located to the left of the steering wheel away from back seat drivers! LOL
JL Audio stealthbox enslore built specifically for the x5

Bimmer Sport: M coupe

Front monitor controls the rear monitor. Watch a dvd or play PS3 at the beach!
Paint done by Richard at LAB.
Custom enclosure secured proper for track use. LCD panel removed and blank plate made to cover the LCD mount.
finished setup. Bottle lighting up everything. pump under the bottle. Very cool...must see in person. Visit Bimmer Sport.

Design and performance at its best. The subwoofers are built to JL audio air volume spec even with the odd shaped trunk. Part of the enclosure sits over the rear hump taking the least amount of space.

Bimmer sport brought over this beautiful supercharged M coupe to the audio professionals for an upgrade. We have to incorporate the bottle and the pump in the custom trunk setup.
Door with sound deadening covering openings and insulating the door.
The door before sound deadening. Once the door is sealed...less road noise and mechanical noice from the window.

OEM speaker replaced with FOCAL K2 Power component set. Metal insulated. No un wanted vibrations here!

Kick speaker location. OEM speaker removed.
Accent lighting to show off the pedals. Double din Kenwood eXcelon touch screen used as the source.
Back up camera installed. Metal frame. LED's mounted in the frame. High pixel camera. Nice for the track.

Focal K2 Power KRX2. Made in FRANCE! Our fav!
Rear shelf made from scratch. Holds a set of Focal KRX Slims. Underneath the shelf is two monster 12" Subwoofers all hidden. A little to the right of the speaker you can see the port for the two subwoofers.
Focal KRX2 Component speakers built into the side wall (custom kick panel)
Looks plain stock from outside.....but its definately not on the inside. Focal K2 Power (front and rear speakers), Focal FPS4160 (Power plant). JL Audio 12W6V2's (subwoofers)

Transformer Upgrade: Camaro

Leave a Comment / Audio / By
Brand new Chevy Camaro with headers and cat back exhaust. Sounds mean on the outside but can use a little spicing up on the inside. The Boston Acoustic manufacture stereo isn't cutting it. The simplest fix....change the speakers. even tho Boston Acoustic is a decent car audio manufacturer.....when it comes to OEM....a special line of speakers is developed from Boston to offer something on a budget but have the branding. We replaced these cheap Boston's with some high end focal speakers.
On the Left is the new Focal KR2 component speaker, on the right is the Boston Acoustic manufacturer speaker. As you can see the fancy Focal speaker on the left has a cast metal basket giving it a strong structure so it does not resonate.....just one of the many reasons that make this a MUCH better speaker.
Using the original speaker spacer the Focal KR2's are a perfect fit.

 

Looks the same......but definitely does not sound the same. Has a much warmer...softer sound.....with a good amount of volume. Removed the Boston badge on the speaker grill and replaced it with the Focal badge to give the new speakers credit.

Bose Blows: TT

A small change but a big difference! Front Bose speakers replaced with Focal coaxial speakers.
Always a nice touch. Focal Badge covering the Bose logo
As you can see in this Audi TT, the speakers are mounted on the door skins. The nice thing about this is that depth is not an issue. The speaker beside the cutters is the original Bose speaker, the speaker mounted in the door is the new Focal speaker replacing the original Bose.
Look at the structure and assembly of the door......this is not no ordinary door.
speaker cover protecting the Focal speaker from moisture and rain.....you can already see water marks on the cover.

Sharp looking coupe with a very high end audio setup. Stealth install. Complete focal system. Two 10" JL audio subwoofer in the trunk.
Looks just as good as the sound system in it.
No sqeaks or rattles in this door. This door sounds more dead than a block on concrete. Goes well with those Focal K2 Power component Power speakers!

Weather forecast: Sunny Everyday!

Anyone riding in this vehicle is definately going to smile. If its not the vehicle....its definately the system!
Watch out. Objects in mirror are closer than you think.
Convertable H1. This is when to party comes to you.
Three JL Audio slash amps just for all the speakers.
Custom made door panels made from the original old brittle plastic. Installed a sponge underlay to make is feel rich and soft. Door now houses four speakers. Thats four more than original! lol
The Leatherette upholstry makes this interior easty to clean. "Very important since the top will never go on again!" says the customer.
