Upgraded sound for a Lincoln Hybrid

We had a unique challenge with this vehicle. The goal was to increase the quality of the sound in the car without adding major current demands on its electrical system.

CSD picked a Focal Performace subwoofer with high efficiency and coupled it with a custom designed and built enclosure to provide the a maximum amount of bass with a minimal amount of power. The Pioneer D-Class amplifier, because of its small size, was hidden below the trunk floor to be kept out of view.

The front speakers were also replaced by Focal Access 6-1/2″ component speakers & tweeters connected to the stock amplifier. Normally, to get the best performance out of your speakers, it’s best to add an additional amplifier. In this case, we wanted to draw as little power as possible so we chose the Focal speakers whose materials and construction were far better than the Lincoln factory speakers.

The end result of this design is substantially better sound with a very small electrical ‘footprint’ in the car.
