Step by Step
Complete System Design
Custom Fabrication
One of the key things to keep in mind is that you could build a high performance system in stages. The main thing to remember is the end result and how the components will work together.
Our expertise means you’ll get the most out of your new equipment. A professionally designed entertainment system will ensure you get exactly what you pay for.
Custom fabrication can either make your audio system a showpiece or keep it all out of sight.
We believe in doing it once and doing it right so talk to us about designing a plan so that you can build your entertainment system one step at a time.
BUILD WITH A PLAN
We understand what not only suits your budget but also your vehicle and how the components will best work together right down to the amplifier adjustment or tweeter installation angle.
SYSTEM DESIGN SPECIALISTS
Our specialist training allows us to install components for optimum performance, from custom speaker baffles, subwoofer enclosures and OEM style facia’s for mounting processors and controls.

When it comes to performance - it’s the bits you can’t see that makes all the difference!
Audio Accessories & Installation Its one thing to buy the best gear for your car, but without the installation to match you may be missing out on the full performance of the products. True performance audio systems are only as good as the weakest link so be sure to factor in professional installation, sound deadening for better sounding speakers and subwoofers, improved amplifier power with upgraded batteries, cables and capacitors. Then top it all off with Australia’s best installation guarantee.
Sound Deadening
Batteries & Cables
Lifetime Guarantee
As specialist installers we recommend that all speakers be accompanied with the application of sound deadening treatments.
Once you have decided on what source unit, amplifiers and speakers you need to meet your needs its time to consider quality cables and the upgrading of your vehicles 12v system.
We back every installation for life and that’s nationwide which gives you great peace of mind no matter how far you travel from home.
This reduces vibration and road noise while improving the frequency response and sound of your speakers. Talk to us about your system needs and we will design a complete sound deadening package to suit.
BETTER SOUND
Power cable is one thing but don’t forget about your speaker wire, battery and additional products like capacitors to keep power up to the critical components.
MAXIMISE PERFORMANCE
So not only will we provide the highest level of installation available, it’s covered for life through the entire CAM specialist network no matter how far you’re away from home.
