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

What Do I Need?
You can add UpStage to your
existing system in one of several
ways. Actually it all depends on your
budget and your personal
desire!

FYI:
All CDT CL series, HD series and ES
series component systems now employ a "Image
Tweeter Ready" crossover. |

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.
