Ocala Car Audio wants to know if your audio system has ever given you an emotional experience. Does listening to a specific song take you back to a time and place? Does it remind you of someone? Music can be very powerful, and having a sound system that reproduces the songs you enjoy with clarity and detail can be truly exhilarating.
A Truly Happy Customer
Recently, we upgraded the audio system in a client’s Ford F-150. She and her husband weren’t happy with the way the truck’s original stereo sounded. It was lifeless and lacked detail and clarity. After inviting the couple to listen to a truck that we had upgraded recently, they gave us the go-ahead to install new speakers, a subwoofer and an amplifier with an integrated digital signal processor in their vehicle.
When they came to pick up the truck, we invited the owner to have a listen. Our founder, Parish Tanner, was in the truck with her as she listened to Rebecca Pidgeon’s version of “Spanish Harlem.” As the artist started singing, the client reached over and took hold of Parish’s arm. “I want to cry,” she said. The music in the truck sounded better than she imagined it could. As the song finished, she looked at him and said, “It sounds so good.” Truly, there is no higher praise for a job done properly than a positive emotional experience from a client.
How We Make Your Music Sound Better
It’s relatively easy to install new audio equipment in a vehicle. The magic that transforms a pile of speakers and electronics into something spectacular comes from the way those components are configured. Proper speaker locations with high-quality mounting adapters and sound deadening are a great start. Installing amplifiers that provide enough clean power to let our customers turn the music up to the levels they want is the next step. Integrating the amplifier into the factory radio using the proper interfaces or modules is crucial to creating a system that sounds amazing. Finally, the process we use to fine-tune the digital signal processors we install results in music that sounds natural and realistic.
Our process goes one step further to create what is known as a soundstage. Rather than hearing the music coming from the speakers, we use accurate level and signal delay adjustments to make it sound as though the performance is happening right in front of you. The experience is like being at a live concert or sitting at the console of a recording studio.
Take Your Music With You
Whether you want to rock out to ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd or Metallica on your Harley, crank up Eminem or Drake in your SUV or tune in to WOGK in your car, we can create an audio system for you that will give you goosebumps and put a smile on your face.

A client from The Villages recently dropped into Ocala Car Audio to talk about a 2016 Ford F-150 stereo upgrade project. His wife wasn’t impressed with the sound of the factory stereo system. We discussed what she liked about the existing audio system and where they thought it could use improvement. After listening to their concerns, we proposed a fairly elaborate upgrade with a premium digital source unit interface, a high-quality DSP-equipped amplifier, new speakers and a subwoofer.
Mini and BMW
Getting the sound you want is easy! Drop by Ocala Car Audio. We’ll look up your vehicle and confirm which audio system it has, then explore the upgrade options available for that application. Audison breaks everything down into easy-to-understand performance levels from 2 through 10. You can improve clarity with a new set of speakers or upgrade everything, including the front and rear speakers, and the subwoofers, and add an amplifier with DSP to create an amazingly lifelike listening experience.
Audison has spent years designing, testing and perfecting our sound system upgrade solutions. We created a BMW and Mini-specific 4-inch component and coaxial speaker sets with the mounting hardware required for quick and efficient installations. Under seat subwoofer upgrades are available with 2 or 4 ohm voice coils to match to the amp of your choice for maximum performance. We even have vehicle-specific wire harnesses that make it easy to connect an Audison Prima AP bit amplifier to factory wiring without the need to cut anything.
When it comes to getting great sound in your vehicle or on a motorcycle, Ocala Car Audio recommends Hertz Mille Pro speakers. Designed in Italy, Mille Pro component and coaxial speakers offer exceptionally smooth frequency response, excellent detail and great output capabilities. Whether you’re rocking out to your favorite bands or relaxing with jazz or classical music on a long drive, great speakers are a crucial component in recreating your music accurately.
Systems like the MPK 165.3 PRO and the impressive MPK 1650.3 PRO are considered among the best component speakers available. These systems combine premium technologies like the V-Cone woofer and Boundary Free Surround to offer smooth and detailed midrange performance with excellent midbass impact.
When it comes to
What are convertible speakers? In the case of the C3-650, the 1-inch silk-dome tweeter can be installed in the center of the woofer to create a premium coaxial speaker design, or the tweeter can be mounted separately from the woofer to create a component set. If you are upgrading your car or truck, we typically mount the woofer in the door and the tweeter on the dash, in the sail panel at the top of the door or in the A-pillar to improve the height of the soundstage.
As we mentioned, we love the way C3-650 set sounds. Midrange and high-frequency information is smooth and detailed, and bass response is solid for a speaker of its size. Because the driver is efficient (90 dB of output when powered with 1 watt and measured at 1 meter), you don’t need a lot of power to produce a lot of sound. This is one of our favorite upgrades for motorcycles — an application where speaker efficiency is crucial.
