Have to thank you guys for this. I've had my hybrid audio imagine 6.5's installed for over 3 years and have been so disappointed with their midbass while everyone else on forums and reviews were stating they loved how much midbass they had. I installed some frost tape around the woofer and wow what a night and day difference. It really gave me the full potential of the speaker. Thanks!
Great info guys some people really don't understand that the smallest things also count in car audio.
love how many points these guys are covering. Just discovered this channel
Good advice on directing the sound out the doors with the foam strips. Going add those strips and check out that difference. Good topics.
A great video and oh yes you know your stuff :) I found that the better the planning and preparing the better the end result is. I just have a pug 106 but with weeks of planning etc even with £40 speakers in the front doors, the result is impressive. Thanks again for the video!
I just learned something thank you very much guys you can go to home depot and buy somebody at tape and put it around your door speakers between the door panel indeed speaker itself thank you very much for that tip
I have a 2015 Dodge Challenger scat pack 6.4L. When i got the car the bass was almost too much, sounded awesome and if I moved the equalizer to the rear I would hear almost nothing but bass. After an update at the dealer, not long after I noticed my subwoofer was putting out much less power. I tried moving equalizer to the rear and I barely had any bass it almost all came from the mids or if i put the equalizer directly in the center. After explaining this to my dealer service rep he explained that it could be a thing that dodge did via the update so that when you would move the equalizer the subwoofer would automatically reduce itself so that "people wouldn't blow their speakers". Not really buying this I took it to another dealer and they said it was a "broken radio signal something" I forgot the actual name, but after first spending $85 they could probably fix the issue. After that experience I thought maybe just upgrading the already pretty decent stock system with factory amp to an aftermarket amp and aftermarket subwoofer. If you have any insight on this the help to me would be invaluable on what I should do. Any recommendations? Or any one knows how to fix this particular issue I would greatly greatly appreciate. Thanks!
going to do the foam ring thing to my door speakers! great tips thanks
Good advise Guys! You spoke about damping the doors. How is that actually done? I want to do that but I don't know exactly what to use or to do.
Thanks
I'm lucky. The took some of my speaker grill off on the right side of my 2002 Alero and the speaker is like right under the grill so WIN!
Great job guys! Very professional an informative.
Awesome vid. Very helpful
Is it necessary to add a 7 band equalizer or preamp or will a line driver be goos enough
Love the WS6 tat!
Hey guys, have you ever tried using fiberglass insulation inside doors for absorbtion of the rear wave? To make sure it wont get wet and moldy, you can wrap and seal it around with 1 mill plastic painter's cloth. Lower midrange and midbass is dramatically improved even further with this step.
Do not do this lol honestly man just go get speed rings and a road ring it's closed cell foam u stick in the door, they work good
Better sound is about soundstage , imaging and dynamic power. Use good quality head, amps with good power supply (1/2 ohm stable) and align your speakers in front so that sound reaches th ears from each side at the same time (time align by putting mids and tweeters in kick panel area).
Awesome video keep em coming!!
I had a system in my car and it sounded amazing. Then I sold the car and got a different one. I've put all the gear I had in my previous car in my new car, and it didn't sound half as good as it did in the previous one. It looks like in the first car everything matched nicely, but in the second car that had a smaller boot it didn't sound as nice. Many people were asking me if I changed something or took something out. But I didn't, all the audio was exactly the same down to the wire. But it still didn't sound as nice, bass was weaker, it didn't sound as clear and it didn't "fill" the car as it did before.
So there is definitely something to what you were saying here.
Just thought I'd put it out there. :)
I would up grade my alternator and do the big three up grade that will make a big differences in the sound
mike gunn Like I said, everything was the same as in my previous car. Cables, speakers, ground, amp, fuse. Everything. And ground, alternator, battery were all good. Just different sized booth and different shape of the car. It made a big difference.
Not that it matters now, I don't have that car or sound system anymore. That has been years ago.
great video, that was very helpful, thanks
Ayyyyyyy I see that ws6 tat, go firebirds! Long live Pontiac!!!!!!!
Pretty good video. Thumbs up
background noise sound like shipments, liken it!
I just want good sound not too loud on the bass
Building a box that meets your sub requirements I get. Building a box to match your car not so much. I have a typical full size sedan and can't see how the trunk space is any different from 99% of other full size sedans. I agree with everything else.
I have 4 channels Sony amp 1200w, 2 speakers 120w rms (each) and 1 sub 380w rms..
How to tune the right voltage with multimeter please!
Look it up on UA-cam. There’s a channel with a guy that does it. How to set your gains with a multi meter.
Im gonna doing like the video, for safety im gonna turn down very little bit, be sure to not send more power to the speakers
You guys are speaking sound language and i have to Google some words every-time you say something. I am from south Africa and looking into installing a sound system for my car. I am not looking for something too loud, just for my benefit. I basically can spend R3000 in the whole thing so i am looking for advice on how should i go about building, what brand to buy. I like clarity more than a super bass sound system.
Can you do an explanation of how to get higher fidelity sound at high vs low volume application? In my example I have 1 10” sub and 6x9’s in the front and 6.5’s in the back.
people ask a question on how to get better sound, i feel like you guys talked about copper wire the whole time. dampening the door is good and so is using foam to direct the sound through the doors grill. you guys also go to state that buying pre built boxes even factory ones, aren't made for/tuned for the vehicle its going in... how about some demonstrations/sources to how you would accomplish the tuning.
As for getting better sound, tuning is probably the biggest part, setting crossovers, using a digital sound processor, using quality components all around.
a shitty sub will sound good with a good amp but a good sub will sound shitty with cheap amp. how about matching components and what order should things be bought just like you build a box to match a sub.
I have a project daily 1983 e28 535i bmw race car project were talking 284 Cam on a ported/polished SETA 885 head, FI, Meth injection, e85, carbon fiber driveshaft and aluminum CV Axles carbon fiber hood, roof and trunk ETC. Etc. I'm working on and just want decent speakers. More interested in sound clarity than Bass. Not looking to spend a lot of money but maybe $150-250. Basically I'm asking what's a decent speaker to buy for crystal clear sound and some bass. I listen to everything except blue grass, yodeling, and noise rock. But typically stick with old school east coast hip hop, blues, and heavy metal/ classic rock.
Hi guys, great video's keep them coming...
Query
I have a 2015 BMW F33 2.0D. Looking to add a 1500rms sub amp to a double 10" box, do you think I need to add another battery to this setup or will the existing factory battery be sufficient?
And Is there any other do's and dont's or advise you can share with me in this convertible installation?
dude!! sit your ass still, DAMN!! that rocking back and forth was scratching
my skull ,ended having to just listen while i browse through ebay for speakers.
I had a self-amplified sound bar installed in the back of my ford pickup and I used a high low converter to convert the higher amped signal from my factory speaker wires to the lower amped signal requirement for the sound bar input. But there is a great deal of distortion in the sound bar when I play it through the factory radio. Playing it through Bluetooth is crisp and clear. Why? Can I clean up the radio audio through the sound bar by maybe using a better high to low converter? Why does audio distort from high to low?
nice! interesting video! like!
"we kinda feel like they're a little bit of a waste" that's the statement that got a sub. So tired of the capacitor nonsense. Now I know i can trust you guys....mostly.
Which one is better to use in a sound system usb or bluetooth ?
I have a kia cerato 2014, my budget is $500 on speakers and subs, i listen mainly to old schools 90's rap. Whats is the best speakers to get ?
What material would you use to make a sub box, if you were wanting it to be as light as possible?
OAX1502, 1500WRMS @ 1ohm, Twin 12" 600WRMS subwoofers, Box tuned to 32hz in a sedan, With rear side port, sould i face my box to the rear or semi-seal to face cabin.... Will my woofers facing forward, help me hear a more punchy feel, while having the low end tune rather then facing the rear?
Haven't installed my woofers and box yet, because i need to know this one question.
How manny battery's, alternators, and capacitors, will I need (and what types) if I have
1 sundown audio zv4 12 dual 1 ohm
4 Pioneer TS-B400PRO
6 Pioneer TS-M650PRO
I don't know what amps I should get anything you recommend that is about the same price range as the speakers should be fine
1999 vw golf thank you for any help you offer and any advice
Its interesting that the people who install car audio for a living dont seem to buy into the crazy prices audiophiles are told they 'should' be paying for cables in home audio systems. Unlike home audio, the power you have is whatever your batteries will produce - simple as that - and anything you can do to get that to your amp/speakers is a win. I'd far prefer to pay for a battery or alternator than spend money on cable bling - doubly so when no-one will ever SEE those cables ;)
Whats up guys... I had an Alpine Head with a Rockford Fostgate P4004 in my GMC pickup. I sold the truck and have had my equipment, and now my son would like to use it. My head unit is of no interest because it does not have hands free/ Bluetooth. However, and the question is, will my RF p4004 run four speakers and a sub?
Is adding my 7 band equalizer good for my car system or should I simply rely on the equalizer that's built in the aftermarket radio?
Heathen The Heretic i been looking for that answer for years now!
Heathen The Heretic i recently experimented by removing a 4 band eq and ended using my kenwood head unit directly to my amps and yielded great results
Why does my car audio system's rear left speaker isn't working but the rear right speaker is working?By the way,it is a 30+ year old car though.Its the Nissan Sunny with the SONY old car radio in it.
2014 Tundra with a custom 270 amp. Factory speakers but I want to upgrade the entire system. Budget is open. I want more base and still have balance. Currently have a Rockford Fosgate amp with 2 12" subs that I've kind outgrown. I want to keep the box but upgrade the subs as well. Im looking into DS18 for the brand to stick with but want to know yalls opinion.
I got a basic "newbie" question I guess. I have a 2005 Ford f150 that's completely stock. I'm looking top upgrade my head unit and I want a double din DVD player unless I can get the iPad mini install kit lol. Anyway as far as the double din dvd player.... the features that I "must have" would be aux input, USB port, & Bluetooth. I'm not sure at the moment what else I would want but I do want the flexibility to be able to connect two head rest monitors to this head unit eventually. As of right now I was wondering if you guys could list 3 units you would suggest... in a good, better, and best scenario? I'm ready to spend around $400-450 but I'm willing to put in a little more for a really good head unit. Thank you!
Could you guys make a video showing how to use a smd cc1?
i second this! love all those products that SMD has come out with!
I have a 97 Nissan hard body reg. cab bucket seats with a HF Brutus BRE1100.1D amp 1100 watts RMS@1ohm $500-600 budget on subs n enclosure. What would get me the most boom for my zoom? Could I do a blow through enclosure with my budget if I install myself or even build the enclosure(detailed blueprint needed)? I listen to a variety genres.(rock,rap,country,blues
Best bang for your buck, would getting a high amp alternator or high amp battery be better? i need to help voltage drop but on a budget.
both. a large battery will be about as much as an alt depending on your ride. or you can add a secondary battery in the truck area. sonic sells amp add on kits.
rule of thumb is 55 amp hours for every 1000 watts rms your running. Keep in mind, batterys do not make power or current, they only store. It can be used as a band aid solution and should be trickled charge normally if you bump it without a high output alt.
Hey guys, I have a 1993 80 series Land Cruiser, and I recently bought a Sony MEX-N4150BT radio. The car 4 factory installed 4 inch speakers at the front and has holes in the rear for 6.5 inch speakers. The previous owner had a Clarion APA4204 amplifier installed. I'd like to re-wire the car and install after market speakers. Where I stay (Tanzania) options are limited. The shop I bought the radio from also had these speakers in stock Sony xs n1620c (component speakers 60rms), Sony Xs n6940 ( 6x9 90 rms) and Sony Xs n1640 (50rms). There are a few more options if I look around. I don't have a Subwoofer in the car. What would be your recommendations for a decent sounding music system that won't break the bank. Do you even use 4 inch speakers anymore? How important is a sub? Should I buy component speakers? Any information you can give would be great guys, thanks for the great work you're doing.
I thought JL stealth boxes are specific built and tuned for each vehicle they are for.
Do a video on how yo install a EQ the right way
I have a Skar evl 12 dual 2. I have it hooked up to a Skar rp 1500.1. I have the sub wired up for a 1 ohm load. I bought a qbomb prefab ported box. My question is what free software is out there to design a box and do you have any really lengthy videos on how to build a box. I have never built a box and would like to.
Q&A I have two rockford fosgate p3 12s with one kicker 1200 watt amp and sometimes that amp gets too hot and cuts off even when I turned It down what could be the problem?

Hey I have a budget range of about 550 bucks for speakers and an amp I have a 1000watt sub and amp in my 2013 Chevy Cruze what would you recommend
Silver cladded copper RCA's or better yet full silver wires.
Rocking in chair is soon distracting.
And your point is? Listen with your ears not eyes. Ever thought of that?
wow i didnt think bout type of wire like copper vs albumin i paid attention to the gauge of the wire but now i got go back and see do i have copper ( red looking) then the ( silver looking) but they seem real shrewd like demanding be more detail with question i mean chances are most people not want to spend 1000 $ just a general idea is all we want, of all other titulars others dont demand questions be ask a certain way be glad that people spend the time to listen what you gotta say
I also have (2) RF T2-412 powered by a Hifonics Brutus elite 1500. what would be the best box and best amp for this application. Im running 0 guage wire back to a Battcap . they are currently in a ground shaker prefab box in my 04 grand am.hat do you suggest and can I come to Valencia and have you do the install.
i havent seen a aftermarket stereo install for a 2008 dodge grand caravan sxt
what kind of amp should i use for mtx terminators 2 10 inch subs in a 1997 camry and price range $200
Preamp EQ. Yes or no?
How do you attach the foam gasket you spoke about to the front of the speaker and how do you get it to retain a circular shape?
You can get that foam with an adhesive backing!!
the foam is easily pliable and has an adhesive it squishes down a lot but creates a wonderful seal.
Awesome so I should line it up with the speaker then attach it to the door panel then?
or you can attach it to the door panel. poke holes where the screws go and attach it. a little overhang on both sides is fine it wont hurt anything.
I have polk 6/12 component sets in all my doors running off a polk 660 amp and they sound weak. My car had factory baffles which I couldn't put back in, Or the door panel wouldn't fit back on the car. I can't wait to go get some of that weatherstrip tape. Can i put one layer under the lip of the speaker where it mounts into the door than another between the door panel and the speaker ? And also to make a good seal between the front of the woofer and the door panel, Should I attach the foam to the plastic door panel ? Or around the front of the woofer while its mounted into the door?
you guys should add links for videos you mention... just saying

I have a 2003 toyota corolla s with 2 12in Alpine type R's on a Kenwood kac-9105 900rms at 2 ohms in a prefab box with an xs D4800 2nd battery, big 3 with the NVX kit, alpine type s speaker 6x9 and 6.5 with type R tweeters, pioneer avh-x1500Dvd head unit, audio control epicenter plus, stock alternator, nvx sound dampening in the trunk, well I'm ok with this.system but I want to get louder now thinking about getting oriens or dc or something else and a new amp too but spending about 1800.00$- 2200 around there for new pair of subs and amp.

hi ihave a sonycdx700 in a toyota van what sub and amp should i use i mainly play old time reggeaand dont want a rib shatering bass just a nice easy bass my buget is £50-100
Tell me the best rear speaker ?my rear channel amp out is 75w rms.
alright guys, specific question. I don't know that much about car audio, but I had a Sony deck put in with two 6.5" Kicker speakers into my 98 integra and the sony deck does I believe 55x4, so it has a small built in amp. My speakers now peak really easily and I dislike the sound of them. What could be up with them peaking badly? This is on higher volumes, so maybe reducing the ambient noise and possibly having a separate amp for my 4 car speakers to power them better? I don't currently have a sub, but that'll be soon.
The head unit is 55w PEAK. the true rms wattage of a decent head unit is going to be around 20w. So the problem is (believe it or not) your speakers are UNDER-powered. Higher frequencies require much less power than lower ones. so that is why they play louder than your more power hungry mid woofers. add and amp my friend
Hey I have a 12 inch solo x put in a custom 2 cubic feet ported enclosure ...I want to buy a new amplifier ....I currently have the lanzar max1600 giving 2000 watts peak ...I am willing to pay anywhere from 150 -250 dollars on amp ....what amp do recommend for my subwoofer

I am looking to buy new speakers for my truck. right now I have 2 6 1/2" kenwoods in the back speakers and 2 6x8's in the front doors.

I have 4pcs 17cm Pioneer super quality spekaers in my car and Panasonic 4x45w car stereo. Will my sound improve if I put Pioneer 4x50 or 4x55w car stereo?
+Stefan Djordjevic
No. That 4x45 or 4x55w are peak powers of the stereos. Those watts are rated at 10%THD distortion, meaning that when you crank up the volume to the max, they will sound like crap.
All car stereos output anywhere between 16w-22w RMS.
Your sound will improve if you invest in an amplifier, wire it up properly and then you will feel the difference like night and day.
Hi! 8yrs later, but I got a question? My low bass sounds like shit, high bass sounds pristine and mid bass but low is horrible idk what to think.

I have a 2014 Chevy Cruze LTZ with navigation and I want to keep the stock stereo just in case I trade it back in. Want to replace the 4 door speakers and spend about a hundred bucks a pair kicker or Rockford six and a half was wondering if I should run in damp to the component speakers in the door? And if so would 50-watt 4-channel sound ordnance amp from Crutch field do the trick? Thank you and right now I can turn my volume all the way up to 45 just not loud enough really no distortion but I'd like it to be louder what do you recommend without adding a subwoofer at this point
What kind of amp should i buy?
Michael Skiff Depends on if you bought the rest already (speakers subs etc) if not then start with what you want in a system 200watts? 1000watts ..a system that booms loud or a Clear crisp system..and of course your price range
I was just kidding. It was a joke about the kid who wrote what kind of subs should i get. Myself i have a jl audio 1000.1 v2 and 2 12w6 4 ohm woofers wited with 4 ga ofc wire
I am sure you really have nice chair there.
I have a 12" 1000w sub what box do I need
If I'm going to be running a 1200 watt rms mono to my subs and a 360 watt rms 4 channel to my speakers how do I split the power? On my mono I have true 0 gauge wire but the 4 channel needs 8 gauge. How do I wire them both?

hi I have a 2011 ram 1500. I want to upgrade my 4 door speakers. looking at 2 6x9 alpine type r and 2 5.25 type r. powered by a 900 watt crunch class d amplifier rms at 115x4 at 4ohm. with stock alpine head unit. would this combo work well together?
Lot of people forget about the SOURCE.. crap in crap out baby. "Why don't my 128kbps itunes files sound legit bruh?" lol
My head unit has a Sub input that just like av inputs but black. I'm not sure if it's for older gen subs or for other accessories?
What subwoofer enclosure would you recommend for duel 12" subwoofers in an vw transporter T5 minivan with all that big open space at the back.. i had a sealed box and then ported box and now im playing around with a 4th order bandpass subbox that i constucted with the sealed and ported boxes i have build before.. my 4th order box is so far the best sounding setup but i know i have got alot of potential.. my subwoofers specs states a 65L enclosure for it and I'm sure that it will be brilliant in a hatchback or smaller vehicle but a 65L box for each subwoofer will get lost and look lonely in the back of my transporter. Help me to get a better understanding of what adjustments i need to do because of the much more space i have..
I got a 03 Honda Odyssey and put a single 10 in db drive and a nemesis 1600.5 and components in the doors and sound great for a work van, I use a sealed box cause there is lots of space. I traded the single 10 from 2 12s and love it. I listen to 80s alternative and 70s classic and a sealed plays more notes. If your banging then definitely ported. Just your opinion on what you personally like
you guys were taiking about a good sub box for the subs what about 1 like the kicker box that comes pre installed with 2 12" comp r subs is that a ok 2 go with is that up 2 spec for thos subs sonic jw
