This Polaris Ranger got fully decked out in SeaDek®.

For many off-road enthusiasts, the Polaris Ranger is the epitome of rugged adventure and versatility. Its exceptional performance and durability make it a favorite among outdoor enthusiasts, farmers, and hunters alike. But what if we told you that you could take your Polaris Ranger to the next level of both style and functionality? That’s exactly what we did with our red Polaris Ranger when we decided to upgrade it with SeaDek® marine flooring. Here, we’ll share our experience and the transformation that took this vehicle to new heights.

We added custom cut and fit SeaDek® into this vehicle to increase comfort, traction, safety, productivity, efficiency, and aesthetic.

We also went with custom Ranger logo cutouts.

Our Upgrade Journey:

  1. Choosing the Right Design: The first step in upgrading our Polaris Ranger was selecting the perfect SeaDek® design to complement our red vehicle. SeaDek® offers a wide variety of colors and patterns, so we had plenty of options to choose from. We decided on a sleek black and red combination that not only matched our Polaris Ranger but also added a touch of elegance to its rugged exterior.
  2. Measuring and Customization: SeaDek® flooring is custom-made to fit the specific dimensions of your vehicle or boat. We carefully measured the floor area of our Polaris Ranger and provided the measurements to the SeaDek® team. This ensured a perfect fit and a seamless installation process.
  3. Installation: The installation of SeaDek® marine flooring is relatively straightforward, especially if you’re a DIY enthusiast. However, for those who prefer professional installation, SeaDek® certified installers are available to ensure a flawless finish. We opted for professional installation to guarantee a precise fit and a clean, polished look.

Benefits of Upgrading with SeaDek®:

  1. Improved Traction: The most noticeable difference after the SeaDek® upgrade was the improved traction. Whether we were navigating steep hills, rocky terrains, or muddy trails, the SeaDek® flooring provided exceptional grip, reducing the risk of accidents and ensuring a safer ride.
  2. Comfortable Ride: SeaDek® is not only about functionality; it also adds a layer of comfort to your vehicle. The cushioning effect of the material helped reduce the impact on our bodies during off-road adventures, making our rides more enjoyable and less fatiguing.
  3. Enhanced Durability: SeaDek® is designed to withstand the harshest marine environments, so it’s no surprise that it’s equally tough on land. Our Polaris Ranger’s floor has been exposed to the elements, including rain, mud, and UV rays, without showing any signs of wear and tear. It’s a testament to SeaDek®’s exceptional durability.
  4. Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond its functional advantages, SeaDek® added a touch of elegance to our Polaris Ranger. It transformed the interior from a utilitarian look to a stylish and eye-catching vehicle, perfect for showcasing at off-road events and gatherings.

5 Key Considerations Before Choosing the Right Subwoofer

Choosing a sub-woofer.
Choosing a sub-woofer.

Choosing the Right Subwoofer:

Adding a subwoofer to your car’s audio system can bring a new dimension of depth and richness to your music while you’re on the road. The deep bass notes can make your favorite songs come alive and transform your driving experience. However, before you dive into the world of car subwoofers, there are some important factors to keep in mind. This blog post will guide you through five key considerations to help you choose the perfect subwoofer for your car audio setup.

Space and Size Constraints:

Before you start shopping for a car subwoofer, take a close look at the available space in your vehicle. Subwoofers come in various sizes, from compact models that can fit in tight spaces to larger ones that might require more room. Consider where you want to install the subwoofer – In the trunk. under a seat, or another location – and measure the available dimensions. Choosing the right size ensures a seamless integration into your car’s interior without sacrificing valuable space.

Type of Subwoofer:

Car subwoofers generally fall into two categories: enclosed and component subwoofers.

Enclosed subwoofers come pre-mounted in an enclosure, making installation easier and more convenient. Component subwoofers offer more customization options and can provide better sound quality but may require more effort to install. Consider your DIY skills, time, and preferences when deciding between these two types.

Power Handling and RMS Rating:

The power handling capability of a subwoofer is a critical consideration. It indicates how much power the subwoofer can handle without getting damaged. Look for the subwoofer’s RMS (Root Mean Square) rating, which specifies the continuous power the subwoofer can handle.

Match the RMS rating of the subwoofer to the amplifier you plan to use to ensure they are compatible. Proper power matching prevents distortion, extends the subwoofer’s lifespan, and delivers optimal sound quality.

Frequency Response and Sensitivity:

The frequency response range of a subwoofer determines the range of bass frequencies it can reproduce. Consider the type of music you listen to most frequently – if you’re a fan of deep bass-heavy tracks, opt for a subwoofer with a lower frequency range. Additionally, pay attention to the sensitivity rating, which indicates how efficiently the subwoofer converts power into sound. A higher sensitivity rating results in louder and clearer bass, making it a crucial factor for overall audio quality.

Enclosure Type and Design:

The type of enclosure your subwoofer is mounted in significantly affects its performance.

There are various enclosure designs, including sealed, ported, and bandpass enclosures.

Sealed enclosures provide accurate and controlled bass. Ported enclosures emphasize volume and efficiency. While bandpass enclosures combine both for maximum output. Choose an enclosure that complements your musical preferences and the available space in your car.

Selecting the right subwoofer for your car involves careful consideration of factors such as these constraints: type of subwoofer, power handling, frequency response, sensitivity, and enclosure type. By assessing your needs, preferences, and the unique characteristics of your vehicle, you can choose a subwoofer that not only fits seamlessly into your car’s interior but also enhances your driving experience with impressive bass performance. Remember that a well-chosen subwoofer can elevate your car audio system to new heights, turning every drive into a musical journey.

Here at Next Level, we have all types of options to help suit your vehicle & budget best.

Some options include a “Plug & Play” style of speaker systems that are easier to install and are overall less expensive, since they are typically a less custom design. On the other hand, we have an endless selection of customization options that can be chosen for a more in-depth and deeply integrated audio system.

A true icon of the roads, this classic beauty recently embarked on a transformative journey at our shop, where it was infused with modern innovations while preserving its timeless allure. As the engine roared and the wheels turned, the Corvette Stingray underwent a series of upgrades, from an Alpine head unit to custom speakers, a powerful amp, and a host of thoughtful additions.

A Symphony of Sound

The transformation extended to the auditory realm, with the introduction of X-Series 6.5″ speakers that were ingeniously housed within custom-fabricated kick panels.

The audio journey continued with the addition of R-Series 6×9″ speakers, delivering a full spectrum of sound.

Amplifiers and Subwoofers

The modernization included the X-Series 5 channel amp, which not only integrated seamlessly but also ensured that every note was delivered with precision.

    While the Ferrari 550 Maranello’s interior is a masterpiece, advancements in audio technology over the years have provided opportunities to elevate the driving experience even further.
