Space Efficient Subwoofers for Your Car from Hertz

Tuesday, October 11th, 2011

Space efficient subwoofers for your car from Hertz have arrived! Bass reinforcement in your car is fundamental to engaging musical reproduction. For years, however, bass solutions have required a lot of space whether in an enclosure or not. This one fact has turned many music lovers off the idea of putting good sounds in the one place they get the opportunity to listen undisturbed!

Road noise, even with sound treatment in your car, tends to cancel bass frequencies and a subwoofer is required in order to bring the original bass reproduction back and add more as more bass equals more entertainment even when listening to more gentle musical genres such as acoustic or orchestral music. However, giving up 25% of luggage space for this is often too big a sacrifice particularly in a family vehicle! With new Skinny Subwoofers from Hertz, only a fraction of the space is required. Available as discrete driver units or in attractively designed boxes, a FOUR MASTER installer now has far more flexibility to install bass solutions without compromising the functionality of your car.

Hertz flat subwoofers can be neatly hidden under a seat, behind a trim panel or against the bulkhead behind rear passenger seats and as bass frequencies are non-directional, you receive the full benefit of lustrous, warm bass without the “space invasion” of previous solutions.

The subs handle 400 (ES F20.5) and 500 (ES F25.5) watts maximum and are highly efficient resulting in more sound output for your watt! A fairly modest amplifier will drive these subs and provide tight, energetic yet musical bass frequencies, which will enhance any musical genre.

Belonging to the Hertz Energy range these subs are perfect for those who like musical car stereo that has a low impact on the vehicle interior. Hertz ES F20.5 and ES F25.5 are available from all FOUR and FOUR MASTER outlets now Priced at £109.99 and £129.99 respectively.

 Christmas AmperChristmas AmperFOUR’s Christmas Amper or, Bass – The Final Front Ear
 
 There is nothing like a significant bass boost to captivate your interest in music and there is no shame in starting your musical journey this way. Bass is the most difficult kind of audio to produce with integrity and although many companies can make a noise, it is usually one loaded with distortion rendering the source music unlistenable at worst or unintelligible at best!
Christmas Amper Car Audio Package

Christmas Amper Car Audio Package

This is where Hertz differs from the crowd. They research, build, test and review each product tirelessly until it pleases them and as they have amassed some of the finest designers and critical listeners in the world over the years it takes something extra special to impress them!

 Many music and sound experts have begun their interest following a moving bass related experience. Even some of the nation’s finest Sound Quality competition entrants will admit that their interest began with the memory of organ wobbling bass from a PA stack at a gig, real life sound such as a low-flying aeroplane or a sub-filled car heard at a show.

Following the incredible interest shown at shows and on YouTube in its ultra loud Hertz equipped FIAT Panda FOUR has pulled out all the stops and put together this very special package so that others may begin a journey through the music universe. (See the video at the bottom of this page)

Consisting of a Hertz 2-channel HE amplifier and an EBX 250 boxed 10” Hertz Energy subwoofer with a high quality Audison Connection amp kit, this superb package will connect directly to your OEM or factory fitted equipment to provide you with chest rattling, musical bass that will change your driving experience forever!

This package would normally cost you £407.98p from all FOUR MASTERS and FOUR dealers, but Santa wants you to treat yourself to an early pressie and you can therefore get all of this for just £249.99

Try FOUR’s brand new “Shop online, Collect in store” feature at http://www.fourcars.co.uk/category.php?cat=33 make sure you get your equipment efficiently delivered to your local FOUR MASTER for you to collect. Alternatively, call 0845 450 1594

With years of experience between them, the FOUR MASTERS are only too aware of the pitfalls of DIY installs and will bein attendance not to embarrass but rather to help inspire car owners to greater things.

Perfect Car Sounds for Ferrari at Auto Italia

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

Perfect Car Sounds for Ferrari at Auto Italia from FOUR MASTERS. Last weekend’s Auto Italia at Brooklands was once again supported by FOUR MASTERS, the nation’s only independent network of Car Audio installers. The sun and Italiana fun were perfectly accompanied by the stunning, real hi-fi sounds emanating from none other than a lowly FIAT Panda, but what it lacks in mechanical attributes, it completely annihilates in terms of pure musical enjoyment and there was no lack of interest as Auto Italia fans queued all day to get to listen to it.

With FOUR MASTERS present you just know that audio excellence is close at hand and the poor overworked Panda demonstrated this. Having received initial resistance from Ferrari, Alfa and other Italian marque fans, rumours of excellent performance began to warm them to the idea of supplementing their driving experience with great music in their cars and it wasn’t long before other FOUR MASTERS around the country were receiving phone calls asking when they had time to fit an install into a Ferrari!

Auto Italia, ultimately, appeals to those with an eye for style and performance and this is exactly what you get with a sound system installed by a FOUR MASTER. Hand crafted to fit sympathetically in with its surrounding yet delivering eye-popping performance which will bring a smile to the face of even the biggest unbeliever. To top it all, the Panda on show was installed with state-of-the-art audio from Italian manufacturer, Audison. Audison has long been considered the Ferrari of the car audio world developing, as it does, brand new technologies to take your car hi-fi system’s performance to new heights.

M_SX 300_EMO_BOTTOM

The brand new show-stopping Hertz SPL Show SX300 stocked by FOUR MASTER, Accutek in Hampshire is well worth checking out. Designed in the Hertz tradition, this ground shaker is built to provide system builders with bundles of bass whilst looking drop-dead gorgeous. Designed for competition and extreme SPL performance, the SPL Show SX300 is described by Hertz as an “Acoustic Pressure Generator”. The SX300 is a 12″ dual 2 ohm voice coil subwoofer with an exceptionally light, four layer voice coil assembly on a 40mm aluminium former offering exceptionally rapid excursion resulting in more air movement and extreme efficiency. 

The unique dual spider design ensures extreme control and linear movement of the cone even during maximum cone excursion conditions. This results in incredibly accurate and surprisingly musical reproduction of sub frequencies with very low distortion. A triple magnet assembly also aids with accuracy under high SPL conditions and the unique back vented spider support system, consisting of vertical holes which drive air directly over the voice coil ensuring effective coolong without discenible compression.

Despite the technology on board, these subs add attractive styling to any installation whether mounted cone or magnet facing outwards.
