FOUR MASTERS Offer Free Bass to Car Audio Fans – For those who haven’t experienced proper audio in a car, giving over precious luggage space to bass speakers or subwoofers may seem a crazy thing to do. For those who know the true joy of an engaging musical experience on the move, it is well worth the compromise. Fortunately, thanks to ever-evolving technological advances, it is now possible to drastically reduce the amount of space required while still providing that magical car audio experience.

Hertz skinny sub enclosures are compact and stylish and provide warm, deep bass more typical of bass boxes much larger in size. They are also designed to be very power efficient, which means you don’t need a 1000 Watt amplifier to make them work correctly. In fact, a FOUR MASTERS Audio Joy system featuring a Hertz EBX F20 slim subwoofer system can be driven with modest power and still provide you with accurate, deep bass. FOUR MASTER Audio Joy systems are designed to demystify car audio for those who want great sound but without having to learn a new language and whole branch of science. Just because we know all about Total Harmonic Distortion, Root Mean Squared power conversion and dynamic range doesn’t meant that we have to bore you with it – We understand that you are interested in great sonic reproduction and not necessarily the internal workings of Ohms law!

Audio Joy is a car audio system sold as a package including front component speakers, subwoofer, amplifier and all interconnecting cables and wiring. Furthermore, it includes installation by a FOUR MASTER who will treat the panels your speakers are mounted to for optimum performance and minimum rattles and distortion. This entire system can be installed into your vehicle by us for just £699.99 however, if you sign up for a free copy of Driving Sounds magazine the UK’s only dedicated in-car audio title, you can get the entire system for just £499.99 which, effectively means you get the Hertz EBX F20 subwoofer system for free!

This offer is only available until 31st January 2012 so sign up here without delay and receive our special offer email.

Hertz is to show it’s incredible Mark I Golf at the Scottish Car Show 17th July 2011. Main event ICE sponsor Hertz will once again be making the most noise at this weekend’s Scottish Car Show as they wheel out the big guns – a freshly installed Mark I Golf.

Installed by FOUR MASTER Source Sounds in Sheffield, the mad golf is packed to the gunwales with no less than 100 speakers including: 36 X 10″ Energy subs, 14 pairs of Energy 2-way components and 10 pairs of coaxials, 6 pairs of SPL show mid-range speakers and 2 pairs of SPL  show tweeters. The front end is driven by nine Hertz HE amplifiers with a monstrous Hertz SPL Show driving all of the subs. Power is provided by seven high power batteries are charged by two 240Amp alternators. The sound is pulled together and shaped using an Audison Bit 1. As you would expect from a Source Sounds install it is not only very, very loud but also sounds incredibly musical just like a massive PA rig!

A wardrobe of sub woofers!

No room for a cup holder!

Hertz is renowned for making lots of noise for your pound and this is why FOUR MASTERS have built not one but two “PA Cars” this year. Reliability is excellent and the products are pretty much bomb-proof in audio terms making them the perfect match for projects of this magnitude. However, don’t be fooled into thinking that Hertz is all about noise. Quite the opposite is true. Because the products are so “musical” a modest Hertz system offers huge versatility and will reproduce all kinds of musical genres including Rock, Dance, Pop, electronica and acoustic music with sweet high frequencies and deep but accurate bass, Hertz reproduce the whole musical spectrum as if your favourite artist were in the room with you.

Be one of the first to experience this fantastic Golf at the Scottish Car Show this weekend 17th July and see if you can bag yourself some Hertz bargains!

Hertz HT 20R Supertweeters for sweeter in-car sounds from your FOUR MASTER. Much is made of the need for additional bass reinforcement in the in-car listening environment however, this usually requires an investment in amplifiers and subwoofers which may be a treat which requires saving for. In the meantime, the addition of a pair of high quality tweeters will deliver immediate hi-fi results and could cost a lot less. Developing the sound in your car is often a case of building as and when the budget is available and also when a prticular element of the soundscape in your car needs attention. Most cars need every element to be looked at and there is a good case for looking at the top end reproduction first.

Tweeters carry frequencies which allow our ears to pinpoint exactly where a sound is coming from and therefore, what is known as the stereo image, is very much defined by the quality of reproduction of high frequencies. The Hertz HT20R is a set of ribbon supertweeters complete with crossover which deliver fantastic quality treble tone and help to improve the definition of the stereo image you are listening to.  As with anything else there are many differing qualities of tweeters available and the HT20 R’s are right up there with some of the best available. But a well designed entry level pair of tweeters will still have a huge effect on overal sound as it is here that car manufacturers make many compromises to the extent that they may even deliberately make their tweeters work less well to conceal poor quality.

A trip to your local FOUR MASTER for a pair of replacement tweeters will help you to reproduce high frequency nuances that are often lost when transfering music from home to the car and ironically, if you travel any distance to work and back you probably spend more time listening in your car than at home! so why not, er, “tweet” yourself (sorry) and get on the road to great car stereo.

FOUR MASTER Sextons, Southampton demonstrates Audio Heaven with it new demo car. Based on a Honda CRV and installed with Audison VOCE speakers the car illustrates perfectly what a FOUR MASTER can do for music lovers on the move.

Four Masters are a network of car stereo experts all skilled and qualified to turn your car into your own private listening space. Whether you retain the factory fitted stereo, or want to upgrade it for extra features like an iPod input or Bluetooth for instance, is entirely up to you, we know that the biggest difference you can make to your musical enjoyment is in upgrading the speakers for clear high and warm mid-range frequencies and adding a sub-woofer for sumptuous, enjoyment enriching bass.

This guaranteed effect is reflected in the name of our mid-priced system which we call Audio Heaven. The Audio Heaven system featured below was installed by FOUR MASTER Sextons in Southampton. The equipment was all chosen for purpose and apart from the Alpine head unit, comes from top Italian company Audison.

Known for its no compromise approach to producing innovative products with excellent sound as the chief priority, these products do not let them down. The Audison Voce AV-K6 component speakers recently won a pan-European award (EISA) as best speakers in their class. Much of the technology is borrowed from Audison’s world renowned high-end Thesis range and the results are comparable to speakers costing a lot more. A Voce 12” sub-woofer and Audison LRX 6.9 amplifier completes the stairway to heaven.

FOUR MASTERS are extremely versatile and as you can see, this installation has been finished in Alcantara. The build could just as easily be finished in leather, vinyl to match the original interior or any other kind of material.

The long-throated V-Cone ensures maximum dispersion of sound whilst minimising distortion through cone break up. With the voice coil wound from revolutionary copper covered aluminium wire (CCAW) and wound on a carbon fibre former for light-weight rigidity, the Hertz Mille speakers are able to cope with all kinds of genres from classical through to banging rock music, without colouring the music in any way. A triple venting system on the back plate assembly guarantees a 30% reduction in heat build up which further improves reliability and longevity as well as improving performance well above the quoted specifications. Hertz is designed, built and delivered by Elettromedia, based in Italy. This company is so driven by a desire for excellence that not a single element is overlooked when designing a product. Hertz Mille crossovers contain hand wound coils and the finest manufactured components available and the final product is subjected to the harshest most discerning ears in the business before receiving the Elettromedia seal of approval.

FOUR MASTERS Car Clinics, great car sounds which save your ears, £’s and now lives! A network of independent specialist car audio dealers brought together by distributor FOUR, FOUR MASTERS have been delivering first rate installation techniques, expert advice and fantastic products for some years now.  If you attend a mainstream modified car show you will always see FOUR MASTERS shouting loud about what they live for! Now, as well as showing and demonstrating great installations, we invite you to have your install looked at by an expert to fight back against ill-advised DIY installs out there which, seriously risk driver and passenger safety.

Our first ever FOUR MASTER Car Clinic held at the Auto Sound and Style show in March showed us just how much dangerous practice goes on when unskilled installers are let loose on a car with insufficient knowledge and equipment to carry out even the simplest of tasks. FOUR MASTER Paul Ellis, Source Sounds Sheffield said, after a very busy day; “The market entry price for powerful amps and speakers has come down rapidly, drawing a new audience of DIY installers who really just need a hand with basic safety. Today, I have seen power cables run directly from the battery of a car through holes in a bulkhead, without grommets, to a powerful amplifier in the boot with no in line fuse! When, eventually, the sharp metal of the bulkhead wears through the power cable a serious incident will happen with devastating consequences! Fortunately, those who took the opportunity to have their cars checked by us are now able to make slight but essential modifications to their installs to prevent this from happening.”  

But, FOUR MASTER Car Clinic offers huge benefits even to the safety conscious. All FOUR MASTERS are trained, not only, to install safe hi-fi but also great sounding car hi-fi and those attending with complete, professionally installed systems were just as likely to go away with great expert advice on how to squeeze more power and better fidelity from their equipment.

Visit B&B Concepts inCardiff for advice on Skinz Sound Treatment. A FOUR MASTER installer, B&B conceptsare best placed to advise you on all of your automotive car sound treatment needs.

Upgrading speakers in a car is not necessarily as simple as throwing a new pair in. Speakers radiate sound from both the front and rear of the cone. Unfortunately, in a car, most of the sound from the rear, reflects back from untreated door panes and reduces the sound output from the front of the cone resulting in distortion and a noticeable drop in output in, especially, the bass frencies. To prevent this, Skinz from FOUR is a range of three products which deaden the door panels to prevent rattles and road noise, a moisture guard to prevent corrosion of speaker terminals from water ingress and condensation and Sound Diffuser which helps to disperse sound from the rear of the speaker cone thus improving performance in the car.

B&B Concepts in Cardiff has been installing Skinz sound treatment products since its launch 4 years ago and has become expert in the installation of these products during this time which is why it is the very best place to go for friendly expert advice on this and many other audio visual requirements you may have. B&B’s FOUR MASTER status is well deserved with nowledgeable expert staff on the premesis to help with even the thorniest issues. They are renowned for building some of the UK’s finest show cars for many manufacturers and are always willing to show you their work.
