My client with this Cadillac had very specific requirements for an audio system installation. \u00a0One, I had to travel to his facility to work on the car. \u00a0Two, I had to work with his mechanic during the installation. \u00a0Three, I had to design a completely hidden stereo system. \u00a0No Problem!<\/p>\n

After a discussion with the owner and his mechanic I came up with the perfect solution. \u00a0We would use his phone as the source unit. \u00a0In a hidden location I mounted a 3.5mm audio input jack combined with a custom volume control knob for quick volume control when needed.<\/p>\n

On the audio end I utilized the two factory speaker locations. \u00a0One 4X10 location in the front center of the dash board and one 6X9 location in the rear center of the back seat. \u00a0My design was to use these two locations as audio “fill”. \u00a0The main source of sound came from a pair of 6X9 speakers that I custom mounted under the dash board on each side of the transmission tunnel. \u00a0After I drew the blueprints for the speaker mounts I had my fab shop JPC Fabrication make them and powdercoat them black. \u00a0His mechanic bolted my brackets to the firewall and underdash as per my design and installed the speakers.<\/p>\n

To power the system I used the classic Rockford Fosgate Punch Amplifier P-600X4. \u00a0This is a four channel class AB amplifier. \u00a0A class AB amplifier is generally larger than some of the newer smaller digital designs being offered today. \u00a0But when it comes to playing full range sound really good, size and design matters. \u00a0Class AB amplifiers just sound better!!<\/p>\n

Looking at this car from the outside one would have no idea it packs an awesome audio punch. \u00a0Listen to this car coming down the street with the top down and it will have you wondering where the concert is. \u00a0 Enjoy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
