Audio MotorSports

Car stereo, installed in our own Carson bay

Audio MotorSports has been building car stereo at one address for 20+ years. Head units, Apple CarPlay, amplifiers, subwoofers, and speakers — quoted on your vehicle, installed by the crew that quoted it.

From a head unit to a full build

Everything below happens at 22025 S Avalon Blvd. Nothing is sent out to a second shop, and the person who quotes the job is in the building while it is being done.

Head units

Kenwood, Pioneer, Alpine, and JVC receivers. Steering-wheel controls, factory chimes, and the reverse camera stay working. Bring the year, make, and model.

Apple CarPlay & Android Auto

Wired and wireless, on a new screen or through the one already in the dash. Phone mirroring that comes up on its own every time you get in.

Factory-screen integration

ZZ2 dealer, plus iDatalink flashes, for the cars where the OEM screen has to stay — BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus, Ford. No cut dash, no cut wires.

Amplifiers

Kicker-led power with AudioControl where the signal needs help. Stinger wiring and grounds done properly, so the system stays quiet on South Bay pavement.

Subwoofers & enclosures

We carry prebuilt enclosures and load and assemble them here — we are not a box-fabrication shop. Dual 12s through single shallow boxes, matched to the amp and the cabin.

Component speakers

Focal, Hertz, JL Audio, JBL, and Infinity sets. Tweeters aimed at the driver, crossovers mounted and secured, doors treated where they rattle.

Coaxial speakers

The straight swap when the factory paper cones are the whole problem. Often the cheapest real improvement in the car.

AudioControl LC7 Pro / LC5 Pro

Analog line-output converters. The factory radio stays. A clean signal goes to the amplifiers.

Backup cameras

Added with the head-unit work and quoted together, so there is one price and one appointment instead of two.

On the floor

Prebuilt Kicker enclosures, loaded here

Boxes come in prebuilt and we load and assemble them in the bay. Solo-Baric L7 and L7R, CompC and CompR, dual 12s, truck boxes for Dodge, Chevrolet, Toyota, Ford, and Jeep, and downfire boxes for cabins that need the sub firing down. Kicker amplifiers on the shelf to match.

Dual Kicker Comp — $249

House special, in stock, box only. Install is quoted separately. Call or text us with the year, make, and model and we will tell you what it takes to put it in your car.

See the current specials

L7, L7R, CompC, CompR

On the floor, including dual 12s. These are quoted with the amplifier and the vehicle together — the wrong pairing is how a sub ends up sounding worse than the factory one.

Truck & downfire boxes

Dodge, Chevrolet, Toyota, Ford, and Jeep truck boxes in stock. Confirm the year and the cab, because the space behind a crew-cab seat is not the space behind a double cab.

The $249 Dual Kicker Comp box is the only published price on this page. Everything else is quoted on the vehicle, because the same speakers take a different amount of labour in a Tesla than in a Silverado. A payment plan is available — how the payment plan works.

How it runs

What the appointment actually looks like

Bigger builds get scheduled instead of squeezed in. The Ford Bronco below was an eight-hour day, and it was booked as one.

What we run

Brands on the shelf

Kicker shows up in more of our builds than anything else. These are the lines we stock and install — not a directory of everything that exists.

Also here

ZZ2 for factory-screen CarPlay and iDatalink for retaining vehicle data. Kenwood DMX9707S is a confirmed model in shop inventory, alongside JVC receivers and the Kicker boxes and amps on the floor.

Shop by make

Built for the cars LA actually drives

Pick the make and see what usually gets asked for. Then call or text with the year and the trim — the trim is what decides whether the factory amp has to be worked around.

Why this shop

One address, and it has been the same one

20+ Years

Collective shop experience across stereo, tint, security, and bagger builds — not a count of individual installers. Nick has been selling car stereo since 1992.

Authorized, not grey-market

Crutchfield preferred installer. Authorized for Focal, Hertz, and Kenwood Excelon. On head units we match online prices, so there is no reason to buy the box somewhere else and carry it in.

Payment Plan Available

Questions

What people ask before they book

Where is Audio MotorSports?

22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A, Carson, CA 90745. Monday to Saturday, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM, closed Sunday. Call (310) 513-8800 or text us.

Do you do the install yourselves?

Yes. One shop, one bay, one crew. Nothing is subcontracted out and nothing leaves the building between the quote and the handover.

Which audio brands do you carry?

Kicker, JL Audio, Hertz, Focal, JBL, Infinity, Kenwood, Pioneer, Alpine, JVC, AudioControl, and Stinger. Kenwood DMX9707S is a confirmed model in shop inventory. Most power and bass packages are built around Kicker.

Do you publish prices?

One: the Dual Kicker Comp loaded box is $249, in stock, box only, with the install quoted separately. Everything else is quoted on the vehicle. Call (310) 513-8800 or text us with the year, make, and model. A payment plan is available.

Will I keep my factory features?

Steering-wheel controls, factory chimes, the reverse camera, and factory amplifier integration are retained wherever the vehicle allows it. Where the OEM screen has to stay, we use ZZ2 for CarPlay and iDatalink to keep the vehicle data intact.

How long does it take, and can you do it today?

Most installs run two to three hours, and same-day is realistic for walk-ins who arrive before 4. Full builds — multiple amplifiers, processing, sound treatment — are booked as a day.
