Before taking delivery of a Range Rover for his wife it went straight to Al & Ed’s Autosound to be customized.

The 2011 Range Rover HSE is the finest SUV on the market. From its classic exterior style to the plush interior there is nothing like a Range Rover. Except when you don’t like the the factory wheels or the color of your interior. That is what the Chandler family did not approve of.

I had the pleasure of meeting with Tyson and his wife to discuss upgrading the factory wheels to a set of color match 22″ and changing the interior seats from tan leather to Rolls Royce chocolate brown with tan piping and brown carpet.

The BMW Z8 is timeless but the factory sound system had to go.

We are very fortunate that at Al & Eds Autosound West Hollywood we get a fair share of celebrity clients. While most of them do not mind if we disclose their names when we promote their cars this particular client has requested that we do not. So out of respect this “friend” will remain anonymous.

Once we received the creative freedom to make this BMW Z8 sound as good as it looks we decided to spare no expense and use nothing but the best components and create a one of a kind audiophile BMW Z8.

The factory radio was replaced with a Kenwood eXcelon KVT-696 motorized 7″ wide screen am/fm/xm/iPod/iPod video/cd/dvd & navigation (KNA-G610) touch screen unit. This radio is very easy to use and when you engage the car into reverse the back up camera that we installed displays on the screen with a rear view image.

The factory front speakers were a 6.5″ and tweeter component set. We replaced those and were able to fit in the factory locations the Focal Utopia Kit NO.7 These 3-way components are the finest in the world. While they are also the most expensive speakers available in car audio they are definitely worth every penny. The crossblock network that comes with these speakers was prominently displayed in the trunk.

Even though the BMW Z8 comes with rear speakers we felt that it was not necessary to have them replaced so we disconnected them. Every great audio system needs bass and we chose to custom fabricate two enclosures behind the seats for two Alpine SWR-T10 shallow subwoofers. As always it is our goal to match all our fabrications with the cars existing colors and scheme and the subwoofer enclosures truly do compliment the interior design.

To make sure we have complete control and tuning ability of the sound system we installed the Rockford Fosgate 3sixty.2 EQ processor. With 153 bands of equalization and time alignment this processor allows us to connect to it via bluetooth technology to our laptop and tune the audio system.

The complete system is powered by 2 Alpine PDX series amplifiers. These are the new 2010/2011 models. The front speakers are powered by the PDX-F6 totalling over 600 watts of power and the subwoofers are powered by the PDX-M12 totalling over 1,200 watts of power. These amplifiers were prominently displayed in the trunk of the car. 

We just finished working on Cedric The Entertainer’s brand new GMC Denali XL. We wrapped the complete truck in matte black and put on 24″ Gianelle Santorini wheels with gloss black Koko bezels by Giovanna.

We just finished working on Britney Spears 2010 Mercedes Benz G55. See what we did for her kids.

This new 2010 G55 Designo Edition is has it all except for rear seat entertainment for the kids. Al & Eds Autosound in West Hollywood, Ca installed Alpine 7″ wide screen monitors in the headrests and a DVD player in the glove box.

We just finished working on Johnny Depp’s 2010 Chevy Camaro. Here is what we did…

Since Johnny’s Camaro SS has not come in yet he took a regular one to start. Unfortunately the interior was a little bland. Al & Eds Autosound in West Hollywood,Ca completely reupholstered the interior using Mercedes Benz black leather for the seats and grey Alcantara in the seat and door inserts. The strip that runs along the dash was recovered in rear carbon fiber for a sportier look.

Additional top of the line car security was installed to prevent theft or vandalism.

To protect the interior and exterior we applied Cilajet products. This is the best car interior and exterior sealant that you can get. It is backed by a 10 year warranty!
