Ford Transit Van Audio and 11 Inch Alpine Halo Upgrade
Upgrading a Ford Transit Van’s audio and multimedia capabilities can turn an everyday vehicle into a mobile entertainment hub with crystal-clear sound and intuitive control. This week, we had the pleasure of working on a Ford Transit Van that drove in bright and early, ready for a Monday morning transformation at B&B Audioconcepts in Cardiff. Our team of specialists consulted with the owner to understand his needs and crafted a custom audio and multimedia experience using top-tier equipment, including the renowned Alpine Halo 11 inch multimedia unit, XFIRE audio components, and a Pioneer rear camera. Here’s an in-depth look at how we transformed this van into an audio powerhouse.
Alpine Halo 11-Inch Multimedia Unit
The heart of any audio upgrade is the head unit, and for this Ford Transit Van, we went with one of our best-selling and award-winning solutions: the Alpine Halo 11 inch multimedia unit. Known for its expansive touchscreen, seamless integration, and robust functionality, the Halo 11 takes in-car multimedia to a whole new level. With its 11-inch display, the driver has easy access to navigation, phone mirroring, and media controls, all in one sleek interface that complements the Transit’s interior.
For this installation, we used a Ford-specific Alpine fitting kit to ensure that the Halo 11 sits securely and looks factory-fitted. This fitting kit allows us to achieve a seamless finish, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also maintains the integrity of the van’s dash. The owner was thrilled with the crisp display and user-friendly interface, designed to make every drive more enjoyable and connected.
Safety & Functionality: Pioneer Rear Camera Integration
Safety is paramount, and upgrading to a multimedia unit wouldn’t be complete without integrating a reliable rear camera. We installed a Pioneer rear camera, known for its clear resolution and reliable performance, to enhance this Ford Transit Van’s safety features. The camera seamlessly integrates with the Alpine Halo 11, giving the driver a full rear view directly on the head unit screen. This setup ensures easy parking and manoeuvring, even in tight spots or busy areas.
Our Cardiff-based team at B&B Audioconcepts always emphasises the importance of both functionality and aesthetics. With the Pioneer rear camera wired directly to the Alpine Halo 11, we created a setup that’s user-friendly and ready for action. For the owner, this means stress-free reversing with minimal blind spots, providing peace of mind, especially when navigating narrow streets or tight parking spaces.
XFIRE Speakers, Amplifier, and Subwoofer Setup
No upgrade would be complete without tackling the van’s sound system. We started the audio enhancement with full soundproofing, using Skinz Pro Black soundproofing material. This premium soundproofing reduces road noise, enhances sound clarity, and ensures that all the fine details of the audio system come through. By reducing unwanted vibrations and external noise, soundproofing provides the ideal foundation for an upgraded audio setup.
With the soundproofing in place, we moved to the audio components: XFIRE reference speakers, an XFIRE EFX1204D amplifier, and an XFIRE X-164 subwoofer. The Xfire reference speakers (X-62S) deliver exceptional clarity, allowing each note and vocal to come through with precision. Paired with the EFX1204D amplifier, these speakers are driven to their full potential, providing depth and power without distortion. Finally, we added the XFIRE X-164 subwoofer to bring in the low-end frequencies, giving the van a balanced and immersive soundstage that’s both punchy and refined.
To finish off this high-performance system, we used Connection professional audio cables, known for their superior conductivity and durability. These cables ensure that every audio component performs at its best, with clear, interference-free sound. With the full setup complete, the owner was treated to an audio experience that far exceeded his expectations, turning his Ford Transit Van into a soundstage on wheels.
