I have always been in love with Klipsch speakers. So I have spent a lifetime in trick cars and car audio. The Mercedes was my next project. Becker makes nice radios, so I found a BE3302 and linked it with a fiberoptic amp they made in extreme limited production that can be programed with a laptop computer. With this fiberoptic line it was looped into the Becker CD changer. Now for the best part, finding speakers. Looking at the different Klipsch speakers (especially out door) I made my choice with Klipsch 8" woofers(1/2 inch birch base made to help , enhance the sound, 4 1/2" midrange, 1" Tractrix tweeters for the back custom installed in the rear packing shelf with hand crafted grills painted to match the interior. The front speakers were 4 1/2" for the dash speakers and the 1" Tractrix tweeters below the dash. Now there was speacial mounting plates made out of birch 1/8" plywood and ABS. Klipsch crossovers were also ordered and installed. It as if the car came from the factory with this system. WOW, man this is hot. What clear highs and great audiofile midrange and lows. Enjoy the rich Klipsch sound in your car, because the car audio world is just cheap thumping lows and tinny highs. It has been three years now and my daughter drives this vehicle impressing her friends. Try it, you will love the quality in your ride. PS: I am restoring a Kübelwagen now for 3 years so far. Off I go. Thanks...for listening. Filed under: Car Audio Viva La Klipsch [Edit Tags]
