Hertz Cento 1973-1977 Chevelle Premium Stereo Kit

Our Hertz Cento 1973-1977 Chevelle Premium Stereo Kit is our best sounding, dash speaker stereo package, period.

The Hertz Cento speakers that come in the dash speaker and the 6x9's sound amazing. The front dash speaker is a direct fit plate that has two, 4" speakers mounted to it. The 4", front speakers feature soft dome, Tetolon tweeters for smoothness and clarity while the rear 6x9's feature PEI dome tweeters for maximum performance for rear, horizontally mounted, off-axis performance. The Hertz Cento speakers are very efficient, giving you maximum sound output for the power and are definitely an upgrade over their Dieci line.

For the radio, we offer three different options. All of the radios are vehicle specific and will mount in your factory dash location without any cutting or modifying required. Our radios come out of the box, ready to install. The USA-230 is a basic AM/FM radio with an auxiliary input. The USA-630 is AM/FM with auxiliary and also has a USB port, the option to add Bluetooth, and the option to add an external CD player. The USA-740 is our top of the line radio for your vehicle and it is AM/FM with Bluetooth built in, a USB port, auxiliary inputs on both the front and the rear of the radio, the option to add an external CD player, a subwoofer pre-out, and a 7 color LCD display that allows you to match your radio to your vehicle, interior, or digital gauges.

For the amplifier, we offer both 4 channel and 5 channel solutions. The 4 channel amplifiers will be used if you do not choose a subwoofer. If you want to add a subwoofer, we recommend the 5 channel amplifiers which allow you to fade between front and rear on the radio while also allowing you to adjust the gains because there is significant power handling differences between the 4" dash speakers and the 6x9's. For the amplifiers, we offer the Kicker KEY 4 channel, the Audison SR series, and the JL Audio RD series. All of the amplifiers are going to sound amazing with the speakers. We have a chart below which highlights the differences between each model.

Hertz and Audison are part of the same parent company, Elettromedia. Hertz specializes in the speakers while Audison specializes in amplifiers and processors. If you wan to keep everything cohesive with the same brand, go with an Audison amplifier. For the output and the price, they are tough to beat. The Kicker KEY amps is great because it uses AI and a microphone the acoustically correct your stereo sytem, providing perfect time delay and crossover points. Finally, the JL Audio RD series amps provide you with JL power and sound quality at an affordable price point. Regardless of which amp you choose, you are going to like the way it sounds.

We offer this package with the option to add a loaded subwoofer enclosure. All of the options we offer are going to give you nice bass response to fill out the bottom end without being obnoxiously "Boomy." If you want to keep everything within the same brand, the Hertz Cento woofer is really clean and a nice choice, but it is a full size enclosure while the other options are low-profile designs. Both of the Kicker CompRT options sound amazing and might be the best value on the market for a low-profile loaded enclosure. Finally, the 12" JL Audio TW3 is a low-profile JL subwoofer with full size output. JL Audio is known for their subwoofers and the TW3 is their go-to low-profile subwoofer.

Finally, you get an amplifier wiring kit and 30 feet of speaker wire to connect everything together. The 5 channel amplifiers come with a 4 AWG wiring kit while the 4 channel options come with 8 AWG. We include the RCA cables as well.

If you are looking for home theater quality sound in your classic car and you want the best possible sound quality, the Hertz Cento kit is our recommendation. When out driving your classic car, a great sounding stereo system only makes the drive that much more enjoyable. There is nothing like cruisin' down the road with the windows down, listening to your favorite songs, as loud as your want, crystal clear, and with no distortion.
