Wakefield Car Audio

s There are some projects that I don't mind tackling, while others are better left to the pros. In this case, I found the pros that were able to install a custom audio system in my classic car. Sammy and Alex are the owners of Wakefield Car Auto, on the corner of Burlington Mills Road and Capital Blvd, in Wake Forest. I spent several weeks looking searching the Raleigh-Wake Forest area for equipment that would provide the sound that would compliment passenger compartment of the car. Our neighbors recently had a new sound system installed at Wakefield Car Audio and suggested that I drive down and view their selection of stereos, amps and speakers. When I first met with Sammy, I asked him to come out and look at the car to see if he felt there would be any issues with any kind of install. Being that the car is 44 years old (240z), nearly all of the interior parts, panels, knobs, etc. are original to the car. As we all know, plastic becomes brittle with age and wear so I was fairly nervous and guarded about having just anyone disassemble the car. The other owner, Alex, is the primary installer for the company. Alex reassured me that he had over 20 years of experience installing systems and alarms, and that the Z was in good hands. We ultimately decided on a top of the line, 6x9 pioneer speaker, with an amp that would be suitable to push the speakers. I had already invested in a retro look stereo that has the same profile as the original car stereo with all of the modern features on current stereos. Although I did not purchase the stereo from their store, Alex said that it would not be an issue to connect everything up. Instead of cutting into the real car panels, Alex built a custom speaker box that fit perfectly in the rear of the car and blended in with the car. I was able to watch the complete install, including the mounting of the stereo, wiring, amp placement and speaker install. I was extremely happy with the install, and the sound is crisp from low to high volume. It really does sound incredible and the install looks great! Honesty and business integrity go along way in my book. The owners exceeded my expectations! I would highly recommend this company to any of my friends and family.
