Nissan 300ZX Retro Audio Upgrade

This proper old skool Nissan 300ZX roared in for a period audio upgrade, for a what I hear you say! I said a period audio upgrade, it looks incredible to be honest and the pictures and video will show you exactly why. I mean who doesn’t appreciate a retro ride, they have a lot of character and look very unique, what do you think? Add your comments in B&B Audioconcepts YouTube channel.
The retro kit consisted of Pioneer cassette/FM radio, Pioneer graphic equaliser, Pioneer amplifier and Pioneer cd multi changer, All in din plug mode before RCA came out.
B&B Audioconcepts team then used the Pioneer amp as a preamp to a Focal 4 channel amplifier and added Audison components and Hertz 6×4 coaxial, sounded good but looked awesome, amazing retro visuals.

Focal Impulse 4.320 Compact Amplifier

Give your head unit a breath of fresh air. Head unit amplifiers (whether OEM or aftermarket) soon reveal their limits in terms of power and dynamics. At high volume, they soon saturate and ruin the listening pleasure. To compensate for this and to enable you to get the best out of your speaker drivers, Impulse 4.320 is the ideal solution. It will give your installation a boost without you having to embark on a difficult installation process.

Measuring only 67/8 x 17/8 x 25/8″ (17.65 x 4.6 x 6.7 cm) Impulse 4.320 can easily be concealed within the dashboard or the centre console.

Equipped with high-level (automatic detection feature) and low-level inputs, it is compatible with all head units. Supplied with all fastenings, an adaptor for the head unit’s speaker driver outputs, RCA adaptors for aftermarket head units and power connector, this amp was specially designed to be easy to install. No direct hook up to the vehicle’s battery is required.
