Dave & Diane’s Basement Theater

Posted by csdadmin

These guys built a great big room in their new basement for their home theater. CSD Audio provided the great big movie screen, a 123″, to go with it. 3 Polk Audio front speakers, 4 surround speakers and a CSD exclusive custom designed subwoofer along with nearly 2,000 watts of amplifier power provides great big sound.

The room was built with a special alcove in the wall for the subwoofer, so the massive bass could be heard but not seen.

CSD Audio started as Custom Speaker Designs before the name was shortened and this is what we’re all about. Being able to create custom speakers and subwoofers allows us to tailor the audio system’s performance precisely to the unique needs of each client. Come take a listen to the CSD Demo Theater featuring custom built speakers and massive subwoofer system sporting dual 18″ woofers. Contact us to arrange a special listening session.

Reid’s Basement Theater

Posted by csdadmin

Reid was looking for the best sound he could find for his new basement theater. After listening to dozens of different brands and models he fell in love with the sound of these Klipsch THX Ultra II in wall speakers and just had to have them. CSD Installed Two of the KL-7800 in walls, A KL-7502 center channel and two KS-7502 surround speakers in the ceiling. A Klipsch 10″ subwoofer was installed in a cubby below the 70″ flat panel LED TV.

This system will be used as much for music as movies and with the 8″ woofers crisp highs of these Klipsch Tractrix® horns, this system really rocks!

CSD Audio featured on “Flip Men”

Posted by csdadmin

Spike TV’s new reality TV show, “Flip Men,” is filmed right here in Utah. On their season finale, Mike & Doug purchase a 14,000 sq ft mansion in Holladay. This house received a total makeover, including a CSD Home Theater & Sports Bar.

CSD Audio was chosen to get this beautiful home’s audio & video to match the quality of its new interior.

A theater on the main floor was the control center of the home. Audio from the Pioneer Elite receiver was fed throughout the home including in-ceiling speakers located in the great room, kitchen, dance studio, indoor basketball court & out by the newly restored pool. 7 channel surround sound with 4 12″ in wall subwoofers provides the sound track to the blu ray playing on the 120″ screen.

Downstairs, we designed this Sports Bar to be the party center of the home. 3 Panasonic Plasma HDTVs (a 60 inch and two 50’s) were mounted side by side on the wall to make sure the guests in the home never miss a second of their favorite teams’ game!

Motorized Theater Screen

Posted by csdadmin

Ron wanted to build a great multipurpose room when finishing off his basement, but didn’t want the look of a full-time, dedicated theater. We installed a 103″ Motorized screen that automatically raises and lowers when the Projector turns off or on. The equipment was also hidden in his custom cabinetry to keep it out of view. This gives great flexibility to the space where he can relax and read a book by the fire, or, with one push of a button, can be immersed in his favorite movie, playstation game, or TV show with 7.1 channels of surround sound!

Steve & Sylvia’s Home

This beautiful South Jordan home came pre-wired for sound and television throughout the entire home as well as a dedicated Home Theater room in the basement. A Mitsubishi 55″ LED TV was mounted above the fireplace along with several other flat panels in several rooms of the home. 24 in-ceiling speakers were installed throughout the home and are controlled by keypads with LCD screens in each of the rooms. Downstairs in the theater, we used a 106″ fixed wall screen and a Knoll projector. Signal comes via a Pioneer Blu-Ray player and 7.1 channel receiver that upscales all sources such as Wii or Xbox360 to full HD. Jamo on-wall speakers supply the mid & high frequencies in the room and a Velodyne 12″ subwoofer provides impactful bass.

60″ 3D LED in Conference Room

ASWN Architects needed a high quality HD screen to showcase their portfolio for potential clients. We selected this 60″ Samsung for its great looks as well as incredible picture. The screen has a very clean look to it and is only just over 1″ thick. It was a perfect fit! We also added a wireless keyboard and mouse to control the system from the rear of the room.

CSD Audio – Back to its roots

Posted by csdadmin

A lot of people ask me… “What does CSD stand for?”
Originally I started out as Custom Speaker Designs. I designed and built tons of crazy loud subwoofer enclosures, and other custom speaker cabinets. I changed the name to CSD Audio when i started to offer a full line of home theater & car audio electronics and installation services.

This project I just completed took me back to the old days… when people really wanted it LOUD! Starting with loudspeaker performance modeling software, I get with the customer, discuss his or her musical tastes and goals, and begin to design a speaker system to match. Every custom design I create is one-off for that particular person and boy this thing got busy! If you’ve never heard Rick Astle’s “Never Gonna Give You Up’ at 145 decibels… you haven’t lived!

Jeff’s Basement Theater

Posted by csdadmin

Jeff had a small, odd shaped room in his basement that was used to store his junk. He decided it was time to make some better use of the space and we designed an amazing home theater system to repurpose the space. The equipment for the theater was housed in an adjoining room so we selected a universal touch screen remote with RF expansion pack for easy control. A Pioneer receiver, Toshiba Blu-Ray player were placed in an equipment rack along with satellite tv tuner. Polk speakers were mounted on the wall and a 12″ subwoofer for low frequency effects. Two levels of reclining theater seating allow a great view of the 103″ screen for everyone in the room. This formally unused space is now everyone’s favorite room in the home!

Bill’s Theater & Distributed Audio

Posted by csdadmin

Bill bought this amazing home in Draper which had already been prewired for distributed audio and a dedicated theater room by the previous owner. CSD Audio added 24 speakers in several rooms throughout the home and added keypads with LCD screens to remotely control the iPod & other music sources located in the media closet in the basement.

The theater room received In wall speakers flanking a 123″ screen and 2 pair of surround speakers in the ceiling. A 1080p projector provides stunning video and a 15″ subwoofer fills the room with deep, impactful bass.
