At CSD Audio, it’s all about clean & stealth. We all want our cars to sound better but don’t want to lose storage space. In this M4, I stashed two Focal Access 10 inch subwoofers in a storage area under the floor. Weight was a major concern for this BMW owner so this box was fabricated mostly from fiberglass and weighs only about 8 lbs. Hidden, lightweight, and sounds amazing!
If you like music, you’ll love the new CSD Audio Audi Allroad. I crammed a whole bunch of gear in this wagon, some of the best equipment on the planet. Man this thing sounds great! I could go on and on about specifications, part numbers and so on… but instead I’m just going to suggest you set up a time to come take a listen for yourself. There’s nothing around that sounds quite like it!

This Taco got the works! The Pioneer AVIC-8000NEX navigation receiver with capacitive touch screen has all the bells & whistles including Navigation, DVD, HD Radio, HDMI input, USB, Bluetooth. CSD also custom integrated the factory USB plug and Back-up camera to use on the new in-dash screen.
The real star of the show is the amazing sound produced by this system. Focal Utopia Be 3-way front speakers were hidden behind the stock grilles with the Beryllium tweeters molded into the sail panels. A Mosconi 6to8 processor, tuned via laptop, sends signal to three Mosconi AS series amplifiers. An Illusion Audio Carbon C12 in a CSD custom enclosure provides the deep, articulate bass. With the amps & subwoofers behind the back seats and the speakers hidden behind factory grilles, this system sounds incredible and is darn near invisible.
In a truck, there’s not a lot of spare room. So we had to think small to get big sound! A custom subwoofer enclosure housing two 10″ Pioneer shallow woofers was stashed behind the back seat. On the driver’s side, two Mosconi amplifiers which power the system were mounted to a custom amp racks and hidden behind the seat as well. Focal K2 Power component speakers were installed in the front doors after thorough sound deadening. Focal Access SG coaxial speakers were added to the rear doors to fill in the sound. The owner of this truck wanted to keep the factory cosmetics of the dash intact so this system was integrated into the stock Toyota navigation unit. The end result is a a tremendous upgrade in sound without any impact on the interior of the vehicle!
We had a unique challenge with this vehicle. The goal was to increase the quality of the sound in the car without adding major current demands on its electrical system.
CSD picked a Focal Performace subwoofer with high efficiency and coupled it with a custom designed and built enclosure to provide the a maximum amount of bass with a minimal amount of power. The Pioneer D-Class amplifier, because of its small size, was hidden below the trunk floor to be kept out of view.
The front speakers were also replaced by Focal Access 6-1/2″ component speakers & tweeters connected to the stock amplifier. Normally, to get the best performance out of your speakers, it’s best to add an additional amplifier. In this case, we wanted to draw as little power as possible so we chose the Focal speakers whose materials and construction were far better than the Lincoln factory speakers.
The end result of this design is substantially better sound with a very small electrical ‘footprint’ in the car.
Bryant loves his sync system but hated the way it sounds. CSD to the rescue! A 4 -channel Focal Power Performance Amplifier, a Pioneer Shallow 12″ Subwoofer in a custom built enclosure, and Focal Performance 6-1/2″ Component speakers were all connected to the factory in-dash head unit to keep the features and interior cosmetics intact. The speakers were hidden behind the stock grilles and the amp and custom subwoofer were tucked neatly out of sight under the rear bench seat.
Craig bought this car completely stripped down knowing the first thing he’d change about the car is the lackluster stock audio system. After shopping around, he picked CSD audio to do the work to the Camaro. Technology upgrades were handled by a Pioneer in-dash DVD receiver that adds a 6.1″ touch screen, video iPod playback with advanced app mode, Bluetooth streaming audio and Hands free phone, and a back-up camera.
The audio system is controlled by a Mosconi 6to8 digital signal processor, sending 6 channels of crystal clear signal to the Focal Power Performance amplifiers. Focal’s K2 Power series component speakers provide the midrange and highs. CSD ran all four channels of the FPP4100 to the front speakers allowing for a perfect blend between the woofers down low and tweeters mounted up high in the doors. The speakers were hidden behind the stock grilles hidden from potential thieves. A Focal Performance 12″ Subwoofer fills in the low end providing smooth, detailed bass without overpowering the other speakers in the car.
This customer wanted a major upgrade in sound but couldn’t give up any valuable cargo space. CSD took an OEM subwoofer enclosure, modifying it to house a Pioneer shallow 10″ subwoofer and hid it behind the factory trim panel, keeping the appearance completely stock. Focal 6″ component speakers installed in the stock locations provide great detail and clarity.
This Xterra got a technology upgrade as well, adding Navigation, DVD, Bluetooth streaming audio & hands free phone, and iPod video.
When Nascar driver Michael Self heard his buddy’s new Scion FR-S featured in our blog here, he just had to have a Focal system for himself! This Ford already came fully loaded with the Sync, Bluetooth, and Navigation, but the Sony audio system just didn’t cut it. It was seriously lacking in both detail and output. CSD Audio to the rescue!
We retained the stock cosmetics and functionality of all the OEM electronics and added new amps, speakers, and two 12 inch subwoofers. All the equipment was hidden behind factory panels or under the back seat, out of sight. The only indication there has been any work done to this truck is the bright blue glow coming from the subwoofer enclosure.
At least until you crank the volume, that is! Focal Performance 6″ Component speakers were installed in the doors and tweeters mounted in the a-pillars. Two 12″ Focal subwoofers were tucked neatly under the rear seat in a custom LED illuminated enclosure. Two Focal Performance amplifiers were stacked under the passenger rear seat, providing plenty of clean power for this system.
CSD gave this truck a massive improvement to both sound quality and cool factor for this up and coming Nascar star!
This customer is used to high end sound and the audio system in this new Scion coupe just didn’t measure up. In additiona to a major Audio overhaul, CSD filled the dash with the latest technology including Navigation, DVD, SD video, iPod a/v, Bluetooth hands free phone and streaming audio. Now it has the features and performance to match its good looks.
The speakers in this car had a very rough life and desperately needed to be replaced. We chose the Focal Access line of speakers to freshen up the sound in this rare Saab. A Focal 12″ subwoofer and German engineered Audio System 600 watt amplifier provide the low end impact to compliment the sweet sound of the mids & highs. All the speakers fit neatly behind the factory panels to keep the interior cosmetics nearly unmodified. Even the Pioneer in-dash stereo changes colors to match the instrumentation in the car.
While we were at it, we opted to bring the technology up to the latest 21st century standards adding USB iPod control, wireless streaming audio and hands free phone as well as HD radio.
