No one Else Has Anything that Compares to
This! If you want to take YOUR sound system 'heads above' all your
Friend's, You've Got to Add UpStage!

StageFront Technology UpStage System 500-Series was developed by StageFront
audio engineers to create a superior live event listening experience in
vehicles of all types.
All Sound Above the Dash!
StageFront "UpStage" System, remove
the distracting and low image sound effects from your conventional systems
drivers and move your sound onto a seamless sound stage directly ahead up
above the dash.
The Upstage™ system is available as a
system to transform your vehicle. It includes a special set of
frequency-control modules that can be combined with various speaker
components that include Tweeters, crossover modules, and mounting hardware.
The Upstage™ 500 series add-on module in the system is a
specific blending band-control module to set up the "cross-firing"
windshield Tweeters. This blending module also shape and filters the signals
going to the door speakers to maintain non-varying controlled dispersion.
On-board jumpers set up various types of door speakers. Level-matching
options are also provided to set up the Tweeters and perfect frequency
tuning of the door speakers. A set of these Tweeters and various mounting
options completes the primary front system.
Nothing Ripped Out
Or Thrown Out!
One of the best
things about the Upstage system is that none of your speakers, none of
your crossovers, not one part of your system whatsoever needs to be
ripped out or thrown out. The UpStage 500 system is an addition that
improves and enhances what you already have.
Adding those two super Tweeters (plus the addition of specially
engineered shaping and blending modules you cannot see) will make you
see the light... will make you see the future of more accurate, more
realistic, and more exciting sound reproduction... and the future of
music on the road

If your budget
does not allow for the high-end StageFront UpStage™ Systems shown
above:
There is a good reason to add a pair of image enhancement
Tweeters upfront connected to an attenuator which is to improve
the distribution of the highs and to fuse those highs into the
overall sound. This image enhancement system will bring the highs
and stereo image sound stage level to where the drivers head sits.
No more playing for your legs.
Many auto-sound systems cannot ideally provide for a convenient
ideal mounting position. In some cases the Tweeters may need to be
mounted well below ear level. In order to embellish the extreme top
end and to lift the image (usually toward the windshield area) the
Image Enhancement kit can add a dash of ³air² and space to enable
the best overall special character.
|
The CDT Audio TW-25/LP and DRT-25/LP Image Enhancement kits mount a
pair
of high-energy super Tweeters as far forward as possible, cross-fired up on
the dash) and therefore the windshield guides and controls the sound field.
The guiding process provides an "acoustic ground-plane" for the Tweeters.
This provides a raised frontal listening position and optimally long
reverberation times for the cleanest sound. |
FYI: All CDT CL series, HD
series and ES series Component Systems now employ a
"Image Tweeter Ready" crossover. |
|

Your Choice, either the TW-25/LP or
the DRT-25/LP set of tweeters ships along with the LP-1, tweeter level
control unit. |
