"UpStage System™ 500 Series

 
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

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.
