Test Review CarAudio Magazine:

CDT HD-62 wins the gold! Among the top group of three closely ranked finalists in this test, the CDT HD-62 wins the gold because, when mounted in the doors, it simply sounded the best. It combined the superb octave-to-octave balance of the Altecs with the magnificent transparency and resolution of the Boston's and the Polk's. When describing the sound of the HD-62 set, everything I say is actually about the beauty of the recordings -- a golden tenorvoice singing Handel, the seductively intimate sound of Jennifer

 Warnes and her (clearly audible) backup singers, the rich tone of a saxophone, the very different textures of a bass fiddle alternately bowed and plucked, the variety of instrumental tones in a symphony orchestra or a well-played synthesizer, the crisp impact of percussion, and the startling power of a trumpet call. The trouble with speakers like the HD-62 set is that their wonderful sound makes me late for appointments; when I arrive at my destination, I don't want to get out of my car.

“A new standard for Reverberant Field” Musical Transportation. The speakers in any audio system establish the basis for the quality of sound. After all, if the speakers themselves aren't of the best quality by design-the music, no matter how pure, will get lost in the transfer.   Good speaker engineering doesn't happen by accident nor is it accomplished by expensive marketing. Years of research, engineering and critical listening go into our proprietary speaker system	designs - they are the systems critically acclaimed by industry professionals, and they are built on a technology called "Contoured Dispersion". The CDT Audio Component drivers with "Contoured Dispersion" provide the ultimate solution to the sonically intense reverberant field car audio environment. Most factory audio speakers are located in the same place, and most of our competitors take the "shotgun" approach with a multiplicity of despair sound sources. Our integrated oblique driver system provides single mounted Contoured Dispersion door mounted system that produces	a sonic image that virtually appears "right in front" of you. It offers maximum sound definition with a minimum of drivers. This means it's also very easy to install. Simplicity at it's best. They're competition quality and they literally shape the sound so it appears where it's suppose to be. Up front and on the Beat. Critical ears have turned to CDT Audio and you'll be a believer too. Let the Music begin! Until you've heard CDTAUDIO, we think you've never heard the most accurate, most compelling musical reproduction you can here in a car. Which is why we say get CDTAUDIO and..

CDTAUDIO designs and builds its drivers and crossovers to the very highest of standards. Years of experience and design flexibility yield higher quality and better performance. Quite simply, we produce "audiophile" sound, smoother response, wider dynamic range, and better imaging and higher reliability. Our incredible midbass and midrange drivers are flat to 7khz! That's 6.5-octave response!
This puts much less stress on the Tweeter, providing greater power handling and much better sound. Our special "Contoured Dispersion" radiation pattern in the critical midrange frequencies delivers rock solid imaging and front staging, with virtually no "side biasing."
The carbon treated paper cones offer ideal stiffness and damping. The curvilinear cone shape prevents cone flex and break up. This provides clean midbass even at higher levels. The always-critical midrange frequencies are clear and precise with no distortion from "ringing." The midbass/midrange drivers use real butyl surrounds, not merely a mixed butyl compound. This provides longer, more linear excursion, and a far longer life because it's UV resistant.
