Product Spotlight: Rockford Fosgate DSR1

August 13, 2018 By Staff

Rockford Fosgate DSR1When it comes to upgrading the audio system in late-model vehicles, Tunes-N-Tint in Lakeland suggests the Rockford Fosgate DSR1 interface and tuning solution. The DSR1 combines the tuning capabilities of the 3Sixty digital signal processor with the OEM integration and CAN Bus communication features of the iDatalink Maestro integration module. The combination makes it easy for us to create an audio upgrade that sounds amazing.

Features of the Rockford Fosgate DSR1

Rockford Fosgate DSR1The DSR1 includes four analog inputs and a digital input to accept signals from a variety of factory-installed radios. Internally, the system provides adjustable high- and low-pass crossovers and 31 bands of equalization on each of its eight output channels. We can also configure signal delay and fine-tune the level of each output to create a listening experience that rivals many premium home audio systems.

Why Your Car Needs Digital Signal Processing

Working in the digital domain, a digital signal processor allows for extremely precise and repeatable adjustments. Not only can we tailor the sound of your system to your listening preferences, but we can also compensate for vehicle-specific acoustic challenges like resonances and adjust for less-than-ideal speaker placement using signal delay and precise output level controls. The result is a sound system that accurately places instruments and performers across the front of your vehicle to recreate the same listening experience that the engineers and producers experienced in the recording studio.

Maestro Vehicle Integration Features

Rockford Fosgate DSR1The DSR1 is an amazing signal processor on its own. When combined with the integration features of the Maestro interface, the functionality is improved dramatically. In vehicles where we can’t replace the factory radio, the Maestro interface intercepts the digital communication information between the radio and the factory-installed amplifier and sends those commands to the DSR1. Volume functions, navigation prompts, Bluetooth audio, warning chimes and even bass, treble, balance and fader adjustments all work the way you want, but through upgraded amplifiers and speakers for much better sound. The steering wheel buttons for your stereo will continue to function, as will secondary displays in the instrument cluster.

The DSR1 installs between your factory radio and amplifier in many Chrysler, Buick, Fiat, Ford, Jeep, Lexus, Maserati, Ram, Subaru and Toyota vehicles.

Upgrade Your Factory Audio System for Better Sound Today!

If your factory-installed stereo doesn’t play loudly enough or doesn’t offer the detail and clarity you want, drop by Tunes-N-Tint in Lakeland and speak with a member of our sales team. We’d be happy to design an upgrade that uses your factory source unit and the Rockford Fosgate DSR1 to provide amazing sound without changing the look and feel of the vehicle. For more information, give us a call or send us an e-mail using our online contact page.

Repeat Lakeland Client Gets Complete Jeep Wrangler Restyle

May 28, 2018 By Staff

Jeep Wrangler RestyleA longtime client of Tunes-N-Tint from here in Lakeland dropped by the shop to talk about a 2014 Jeep Wrangler restyle project. He wanted to make some significant audio system and lighting upgrades to his wife’s Jeep and coordinate the project so he could surprise her at one of our shows. We sat down with the client to discuss his vision and goals for the project. Then we came up with a plan of attack!

Jeep Wrangler Audio System Upgrade

Jeep Wrangler Restyle

The restyle transformation started with a stock Jeep.

The client liked the features and functionality of the factory source unit. Rather than replacing it with something new, we used a PAC AmpPRO AP4-CH21 OEM integration device to extract a full-bandwidth audio signal from the original radio. We then directly connected the clean signal to a JL Audio XD1000/5 amp. We mounted the amp in the storage compartment under the false floor of the cargo area.

Jeep Subwoofer System and Speaker Upgrades

Jeep Wrangler Restyle

Dual JL Audio subwoofers were used to give this Jeep lots of awesome bass.

We sourced a pair of fiberglass under-seat subwoofer enclosures for the Jeep and installed a pair of JL Audio 10TW1 subwoofer in them. The enclosures don’t take up any space in the vehicle and the output from the JL subs is impressive. We finished the audio upgrade by installing JL Audio C3-650 convertible speakers in the dash and overhead soundbar locations.

Custom Powder-Coated Accessories

Suspension upgrades not only raised the ride height of the Jeep, they also enhanced its off-road capabilities.

The Poison Spider fender inserts and blue powder coated trim pieces really help set this Jeep apart.

The styling and performance upgrades for the Jeep include a set of AMP Research Power Steps, Poison Spyder metal fender inserts, a Rough Country lift kit with Fox shock absorbers and dual steering stabilizers, tow hooks, D-rings and several led lighting brackets. The client chose a set of Fuel Krank D517 wheels for the Jeep. These items are coated in metallic blue with a color-shifting pearl that makes them look more purple at certain angles. We also painted the interior air vent trim pieces, door trim and dash inserts in the same metallic blue finish. Then we added custom graphics to the hood and stabilizer arms.

We had the center sections of the wheels painted black to match the body color of the Jeep. We then wrapped them in a set of Nitto Terra Grappler tires.

Custom Lighting Upgrades

A lighting controller lets the client choose hundreds of different colors for the accent lighting.

The front lighting upgrades for this Jeep were incredible.

Lighting was a big part of this project. We installed Rough Country light bars across the top of the windshield, on the front fenders and the rear of the vehicle. Rough Country also makes a cool light bar insert for the front grille of this Jeep. The bar locates five 8-inch single-row LED bars vertically in the grille and provides an insane amount of output.

Accent lighting for the Jeep Wrangler restyle project includes RaceSport LED under-car lighting, wheel well lighting and rock lights. We also added LED strips to the interior of the vehicle to light up the footwells. Oracle halo-style headlights and fog lights are the icing on the cake.

An overhead switch panel and a multi-zone LED controller gives the client control over all the lighting upgrades. The controller allows the client to set the LED lights in thousands of color choices. An LED third brake light located inside the spare tire replaces the flimsy plastic housing that comes from the factory.

Motorized Convertible Top

Jeep Wrangler Restyle

Thanks to the new power top, the client can easily cruise with the top down in less than 10 seconds.

The inspiration for the upgrade started with the client wanting to provide his wife with an easy way to remove the roof from the Jeep. He found out that there was a motorized convertible top available for the Jeep. We ordered the top and installed it for the client. The top opens by releasing two brackets at the top of the windshield; then it motorizes back and down – all in less than 10 seconds.

Jeep Wrangler Restyle Presentation

With all the work done and the Jeep polished up and on display at one of our shows, the client brought his wife to the Jeep. The whole thing was a surprise to her! She loved everything about it. The stereo sounds awesome and the Jeep looks amazing.

The couple are property owners at River Ranch, so we know the Jeep will get a healthy off-road workout. The rest of the time, the client’s wife will use it as her daily driver. If you are in the Lakeland area and want to transform your Jeep into something unique, drop by Tunes-N-Tint or shoot us an e-mail using our online contact page.

Lacoochee Client Upgrades Cadillac Escalade Audio System

A client of ours from Lacoochee recently dropped by Tunes-N-Tint to talk about some 2006 Cadillac Escalade audio system upgrades. He wasn’t happy with the performance of the Bose system in the truck and wanted something that would play louder and sound clearer.

We replaced the factory source unit with a Kenwood DNX994S so he’d have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. We connected the radio to a JL Audio RD400/4 amplifier that would power the new door speakers. The amp is installed with a MESA AKC4 amp kit, premium four-channel interconnects and a MESA fuse block.

The last step was to install a set of JL Audio C2-650 components in the front doors and C2-650x coaxial speakers in the rear doors. We treated the door panels with MESA Mat sound-damping material to make the truck quieter and allow the speakers to perform better.

The client was impressed with the upgrade and loved having a radio with navigation and smartphone integration. If you are in the Lakeland area, drop by Tunes-N-Tint to see how we can make your stereo sound better. You can also reach us by e-mail for information about any of our products or services.
