Wiring CAR AUDIO System w/ 2nd Trunk Battery & Installing BASS Amplifier | Testing HOTEL Subwoofer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 бер 2017
- Time to get this sucker playing! Let's buckle down on the electrical system for our aftermarket bass upgrades. We'll start by installing a fresh battery replacement, upgrading the extremely corroded stock terminals, running all new 0 gauge power wires, and grounding everything up back where the amp and 2nd battery install will be. We end by wiring a remote turn on switch for the amplifier and route a single pair of our RCA cables for the 12" Hotel series subwoofer from Droppin HZ car audio. And of course, we also test the subwoofer output with our wireless SPL meter from SSA! Thanks For Watching :)

5:26 you know he's been on youtube a hot minute when he still calls it rating from the 1-5 star days.
Great tip on using reverse on the drill!! Especially when you only need to take just a little bit off.
I to have grabbed my drill, shoved it in the hole, rushing, and had the terminal ripped from my hands!!
Not only do you NOT trim what you want.. but like you said, sometimes it'll rip that little thing right off of the lines!!
And now your starting over.... take your time and do things right! 5 or 10 seconds of thinking and slowing down will save you hours of headache.
She may be a keeper man ... When she suggested "You should get a reading on it." She speaks the language! LOL
lol exos face expression when he said" are you shitting me?!"
Im yet to see anybody better wit car audio than this guy im impressed everytime
Dude, i work at Advance Auto, trust me, don't get the silver battery, if you are into car audio, get the Platinum AGM. I have heard back from my car audio customers that it has improved their sound. It also doesn't vent, so the terminals wont corrode. I put AGMs in all my builds.
rocbola working at advanced you’re not building much... no offense
Man this guy is one of the nicest I have seen on UA-cam
right man, he just makes yah smile haha
Yes he like nice guy
Happy WEDNESDAY, Everyone! :)
Its wednesday in my country :P
EXOcontralto eeeeeeexxxxxxooooo!!!!!!
EXOcontralto bro...my phone says its Wednesday 😂
WOOPS, me too! HAHHA
2:05 that laugh tho😂
Lmfao, exo looked at her an said "are you shitting me" priceless had me rolling
LOL, damn girl be sleepin at the wheel!!!
I have done hundreds of stereo installs and have always ran my power wires underneath and pinned it up and customers were like what you doing, I'd just say you'll thank me later and made sure it was protected from bumps and such, there are various grommets and trunk drains that can be used so that's more than under dash and you don't have to pull but maybe one or two interior panels off and boom it's wired and ready, some people just can't understand why we do stereo installs like this exo and like you bro been In the game for a long time excellent videos buddy
He looks so proud which he should be
love how you do things the right way .
I've learned that using soapy water in a spray bottle helps that zero gauge slide wherever it needs to go lol.
That's not all soapy water is good for
One helpful thing to know bass is a long wave form so if you the rider or driver in a car what to hear it well, put you bass speaker farther away from you when possible. Like in this case you don't need the rear seats down and playing it that loud. Point you bass speaker toward the back of the car and do as much as possible to stop the truck from rattling, especially the lid and the rear lights.
Glad you were wise about the power wires.
Yes, a fuse at the battery up front is great, but you partly ruined that safe plan by not fusing the battery in the trunk. Also a softer speaker, in a ban pass box and maybe 200 watts RMS amp would have worked out very well.
Really nice to see how happy you were to hear your work!!!
Excellent point about the flammable interior parts
Thanks bro :D
My thoughts too, but what where these lines the wire was attached to ? Hope this wasn't the fuel lines ??
Nice job exo!! Gotta make the misses happy!! Very respectable number. A 140 on a single sub daily driver box. Congrats. That's perfect for everyday listening!! Keep up the great work!!
Thanks man, I think so too!
Just finished a small system in my 97 mercury tracer. Got Hertz speakers in back Audison in front hooked up to a 650 watt rms pioneer amp and 2 10 inch Memphis brx 1044s in a ported box with 1000watt rms amp. What i like about these subs is the magnet is about 9-10 inchs so even though its a 10 inch sub it hits harder then a lot of 12s out there.
you gave her refurbished repainted terminals and exchanged hers and your gonna do the same thing with the ones you got from her! your a good guy!
I think you like the setup way more than she does...
LOLz, maybe but that's not a surprise :P
Nan u got me excited as hell by getting excited. Hell yeah
Just got done with my NVX install Sunday. It was because of you and your Dad that I got it. I love it.
So pumped for you dude!
craig pennington What did u get man I'm looking into trying some Nvx subs?
glad to see you back at EXO. good video
I'm not going anywhere, slightly crazy but nowhere fast :p
I am a sub now, love your personality!!!
it’s grate having a woman that supports your interests
Holy shit thanks for the reverse drill trick on ring terminals! I just ripped a chunk out of my hand a couple weeks ago when the bit grabbed an took me for a ride lol. Thanks buddy!
The mannn!!! This video helped me out pretty good right now man thanks dude!
Nice job hey bro I've never watched your videos I think I've sat all month and watched every video you made from the beginning I seen you come up through like the last 5 years lol.. you can see the changes in your place and in your stereo systems with you and your girl pretty cool man wish you luck on you're endeavor you make me laugh too. Keep doing your thing boy God bless
You can also hook the power wire to the second battery straight to the alternator with a circuit breaker in between and run a second large ground from the engine battery to the body then ground your trunk battery straight to the body and the two batteries won't fight for voltage or confuse the alternater.
Dan Hodgkiss I think I need to do that I’m having power issues with my battery’s
I learned some new things. Great install from one car audio guy to another.
I was wandering when you where going to fix it. Awesome job!!!!!! I cheered with you when I saw 140
Not really into car audio but damn these videos are entertaining and full of good info/content. Subscribed!
THANKS MAN!!!!
You didn't show how to install the 2nd battery. I wanted to see if the original battery needed different terminals, or if there is something else needed to add the 2nd battery other than cables.
I was going to say the same thing but I noticed that he got separate smaller (lengthwise) of the same ground and power wire he installed and ran the power wire (he installed under the car) into a fuse near the battery then connected it to the battery then another separate smaller power wire connected to the amp. Then for the ground wire, he took a smaller (lengthwise) wire then ran it to the ground on the battery, then another one ran from the battery to the amp. I hope that helps!! I paused the video at 11:27 and followed the wires remembering the colors of the orignal two he installed.
woo hoo 140 on a single nice work EXO !
glad to see someone else's missrs is in the daily 140+ bracket too hehe
cheers for the upload, anticipating it for days, take care and hope she enjoy's it !
Thanks for the comment man, I was so pumped too. And for sure, i think she's loving the addition heheh
Like the power wire run! cool don't have to tear up an interior, and if any problems, there it is!
Are you kidding? All that from a 10" sub? No way! Great job bro
My bad. Didn't watch till the end. Still.. nice for a 12.
@@jasonchenoweth5448 the big surround makes it look like a 10.
Love your work and videos. I see it both ways with running power externally. My only issue with this particular install is you have zip tied the power wire to the fuel lines. Not a good thing if the insulation wears thru.
It looks rowdy dude!!!! Kick ass bass!
Cool box
Great work EXO!
"are you shitting me?" LMFAO that part killed me
:D
Woops!
"Your battery posts are too tight!" Says the one person who always has to bitch on a youtube video XD
Exo I love your videos keep up the good work
You crazy love birds! You rock man! Keep havn fun!
Awesome like watching your videos
I would,'ve never thought of running the power wire under the car and to be honest I think that's a better and safer way than running it in the car.
Less chance of car fires that way
Very nice!! Another excellent video--keep up the great work!!
hahaha, the look on your face @EXOcontralto at 1:35, Love it!!
Btw great vids EXO!
Much appreciated man, thanks for watching!
played this on some sony random headphones. the bass was so intense that my ears are hurting fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucg
Heck yeah dude that's awesome !!!I love to see when you get excited bro !!!When you saw that 140 DB that was priceless!!!I felt Your happiness through my phone!!! Congrats to Elise she's bumping now!!!!
Hey man!! I appreciate that, and glad to see you on the channels :)
Hey no problem anytime bass head brother!!!!! I'm a lifetime suscriber to both channels,keep bringing us your awesome videos!!
I'm loving the outcome.
*NICE INSTALL! hope your girlfriend likes the effort you put in this? great vid brother!*
She does, a very supportive person
👍cool👍
this dude is the truth
love your install videos bro. your a genius
That was Awesome! Very nice indeed for one sub and stock alt.
You can also mix baking soda and water, then pour it on a battery cable and it will desolve the corrosion.
all that work and all she can think about is sleep. I wish my girl got as excited about bass as me lol
Poor girl be slippin!
Wish you guys the best bro 💪
that is one lovely sound system great job exo keep these awesome vedio coming :))
Good job bro
Thanks, Danny!
Wait you have your remote ran off a switch? Is that so you can turn your amp on and off? I wanted to do that with mine and the guy who installed my stuff laughed and basically said that was a dumb idea
Ty for showing under the car mount as I was thinking to do this
EXO i want some of that suped up energy you got. Can ya send it to me in a bong man ? 😂
Pepsi, sprite, Canada Dry ginger ale would’ve helped with the corrosion on the battery!! You can literally see the acidity from the sodas eat away at the corrosion.
YOU TOTALLY DIDN'T MENTION THE #1 ACID EATER THE ORIGINAL COLA THAT DISCOVERED THUS TRICK COCA-COLA
YOU TOTALLY DIDN'T MENTION THE ORIGINAL#1 COLA THAT DISCOVERED THIS ACID EATING HACK COCA-COLA

Mmm, I agree :)
goofy guy gotta love em.
Great videos man. such an inspiration to youtubers and car audio enthusiasts. makes me want to make some vids. thanks
another great video ! thanks EXO
Thank you for the comment!
I personally think the subwoofer should be pointed towards the back of the car, instead of pointed towards the windshield.. I mean I've done it like that for years.. the bass tends to be deeper and harder that way but I guess to each its own. Awesome!!!!
You're VERY right! But this setup is meant for daily travelling and grocery getting. With the sub facing the rear, the cone would be constantly hit and possibly damaged from all the stuff we transport in the trunk!!!
EXOcontralto hey buddy yeah you're absolutely right.. in that case then yes I would have kept it the way you did.. I was wondering if you guys could ever get a chance to check out the Power Acoustik subwoofers and the autotek amps.. that's the equipment I had in my car and they seem to do really well but yeah just a thought
EXOcontralto with the rear seats down wouldn't the sub pointed at the cabin be louder?
Colby from my own experience the sub pointed backwards always seem louder.. and besides I always thought you hear less woofer noise and more deeper Bass
She is super cute. Great install too!
She sure is, I love that girl :)
nice vid EXO!!
Dam man great job the hard work shows on your face.
*cough* we all know what happend after this video..
what happened?
@@dustinleeper1repair shop blew the sub and broke most of the audio gear
You really do seem like you make friends easy
1452 ive been runnin into you latly
NerdyBassHead 2004 ya
I Love your enthusiasm and drive in car audio. 👍👍👀
Much love sir, I appreciate you watching.
All around good job on your girlfriends car EXO!! I like it!!
Thank god I’m a mechanic.... I could never let advance touch my car. 🤷🏻♂️
have you ever done a "how to install a volt meter" video?
would love this!!!
Coming up soon!
You a caraudio mad man!!!!
Is it just me or do you HAVE to smile when you see EXOs bass face haha
Cody Patterson I smile to bro and I’m listening on my car so I can hear the bass
stay away from led acid batteries.. buy agm only, they last longer if properly taken care of.. use your warranty before it expires, drain your battery and return it within warranty for a new one
Nice build EXO, Now its time to "Rip IT" oh dang wrong channel lol. Ps stop by mine for some car audio goods. Mad props to the editing on your vids too!! Peace bro
bigvell02 from Doug Bernards amplified right? 😂😂
RIP IT!!!!
Got to love your videos thanks.
good shit bro... keep them coming, they are a big help.
Really enjoy the vlogging part of it, but hey if it can help that's a good bonus!
i enjoy watching as a fellow base head but i had to stop at the 2 min mark and say ,........WTF DID SHE JUST SPRAY WD-40 ON YOUR BATTERY AND CAR ???? THEY MAKE BATTERY TERMINAL CLEANER FOR JUST THAT REASON I'D NEVER EVER LET THEM TOUCH MY CAR AGAIN
Not that I would ever pay anyone to replace a battery...... The corrosion would have come off all connections just from the sonic boom of me slapping that can out of her hand.
LMAO :D
sweet exo! love the vids
Thank you for watching!
love tha videos exo keep'em up man 👍👍👍
You got it!
