Welcome to TPD HiFi. We are American engineers, audiophiles and car builders that have combined our skills to design and build the best audio components for your car or truck.Specializing in both vintage and modern classics, we provide solutions ranging from a basic kick panel package to complete plug and play systems. Every TPD component has been carefully designed to fit correctly, sound great and save installation time. We accomplish this by laser measuring each vehicle, selecting the best audio gear for the application, and making sure the kit comes with everything you need for a successful installation. Finally, a custom audio solution, without the time and cost of the “custom shop”.
73-87 CHEVY C10
The 3rd generation C/K series, known as the “Squarebody,” debuted in 1973, marking a shift from the previous 67-72 style. Despite GM calling it the "Rounded Line," its boxy design, especially with square grills and headlights, became iconic. In 1980, a redesign introduced a bolder grill, rectangular headlights, and the first Chevy pickup with a windshield-integrated antenna to reduce wind noise. While the factory stereo, even with FM radio, was lackluster, 1980 also saw the first cassette player option. At TPD HiFi, we bring your Squarebody’s audio out of the 70s and into the future, turning your cab into a concert hall.
IMPOSSIBLY THIN
TPD HiFi’s custom loaded kick panels are made specifically for Morel’s shallow mount speaker line, pushing the limits of sound quality in a thin, low profile package allowing them to be installed in C10 pickups even when the original foot-activated parking brake is retained. A match made in heaven with no sacrifices!
