2010 BMW Mini Cooper Works Audio Upgrade

After listening to other cars, this customer realised his factory system wasn’t upto scratch.  He wanted something of good quality but without seeing anything.

We used a 3 way component speaker set of Hertz Energy ESK163 for the front end and a set of Hertz Energy ECX690 for the rear quarter panels.  For sub bass, we custom built an enclosure for a Hertz ES300D 12″ subwoofer and made a false floor to hide this sub under.  All the speakers were driven from a Hertz HDP5 5 channel amplifier which we mounted behind the drivers side rear boot panel allowing access to the controls for audio adjustment.  To get a decent signal from the factory stereo we utilised an Audio Control Lc2i interface with a sub level controller which we mounted just infront of the handbrake.

I arrived to find two technicians on their lunch break busily helping a lost parcel delivery guy waylaid with items. This bode well for assessing the character of Source Sounds. A replacement head unit and the re wiring of a sub made me self concious that I was not their biggest customer. I could not have been more wrong. They squeezed my job in that very day and phoned me as soon as all was complete. I never had to repeat anything twice. Lee’s perseverance and tenacity was infectious. Several minor issues that I had tolerated previously are now history. I thoroughly recommend this company.

We traveled from Rotherham to get these guys to fit some reversing sensors to my wife’s car, I’d been before and they were very professional for both alarms and a radio on my van and this time as before they were brilliant. The work was completed ahead of time and one of the guys came out and spent 10 minutes explaining EXACTLY how parking sensors worked which was great as I hadn’t a clue. We are very pleased with both the professionalism of the people and the work in which they do. Perfect!!! Many, many thanks for such a great company.

When I arrived back home after my short trip from Source to Donny today, I thought a short thank you email was in order. When I first sat behind the wheel and heard what a difference your adjustments had made, I was very pleased. I put Pink Floyds’ “Dark Side Of The Moon” in and set off for home. When I pulled onto my drive, I couldn’t get out of the car for 10 minutes because the CD hadn’t finished. It was stunning ! All the meticulous work you put into my install came together today and exceeded all my expectations. The sound stage is now immense, fills the front of the car and is fully balanced to my seating position. A great many thanks to you and all the team at Source Sounds, I wish you every success in the future.
