It can become locatable above 100Hz, so you need stereo midbass above that. You can learn a lot from the RTA evaluations on our Patreon channel where this system was analysed too. You can find the link in description.
Peter, those apillars are a work of art, I know you have said before that you can't make pillars for customers without the car there but I am just planning my g21 setup and these pillars inc. Mids and tweets would be amazing if you could replicate for me? Let me know if this would be possible? Loving your work and attention to detail, will morecthan likely sub to your patreon.
Hi, We built pillars remotely, there is an A-pillar fabrication video on the channel about it to show how it can be done. We have to send mounting rings out, you need a multitool for cutting the pillars, lolly sticks and superglue, plus the midrange for testing clearance. If you have the guts to mount the rings with our guidance on video call, then it can be done.
First of all. Thank you thank you thank you. For taking the time to make the videos. Thank you ones again. Now question. Because of you and showing SQ audio systems. I want one now. So I’m building a sq for my bmw 550i. I have in there now a full match audio system with a m5dsp. But I’m moving to a better system now. 3 hybrid audio amps. Helix dsp pro. Sterio integrity 3 inch mids n tweeters. Audio one 8 inch midbass. And I’m working on which subwoofer to used. And the question is Peter. Should I leave the match 8 midbass under the seat or should I do IB with rh audio one 8 inch. Second question. What is best true IB or trunk IB. Some how I feel you’re going to tell me true IB is better. Which I appreciate for taking your time for reading the comments and replies. Thank you ones again Peter. Your awesome bro
Hi Changing 8”s doesn’t make much difference. Making it IB gets rid of all the rattles just like we described in this video. If you have a sedan car, then trunk IB is the way to go. As the subs are closer to you behind the seat, subs can play higher up in frequency range without major issues, which gives better integration to the 8”s, more punch. True IB playing from spare wheel well has different characteristics due to location. Fortunately we have weekly topics to describe “good subbass” in long videos on Patreon. You may benefit from watching and learning from those posts.
Hi Amp is almost irrelevant in the question. Installation position and aiming matter more as well as who will tune it with what experience and what DSP. Choice of tweeters is so wide, so so wide. What have you used in the past and what suited your ears most?
@@pssound9749 I only had silk tweeters.I want to try something new. Hertz 1800.3 front, Gladen Aerospace 80 PP midrange and CDT 1200 CRM high frequencies are now installed. A Helix P-Two is installed on the Herz, an Alpine X-A90M subwoofer, and an Xcelsus audio XXS 12 subwoofer. Rear CDT Audio HD-6.I would like to conduct experiments with high frequencies) Magnesium or beryllium...
@@Bitter1981 these Steg Steg MSS1M does a great job and doesn’t cost Focal Tbe money, so could be a cheaper move for try and you maybe just as happy with them. We’ll also bring our AMT soon which certainly make a big difference
Amazing job!! I have one helix C four and i am thinking about to a make a upgrade in my two way front speakers. I am thinking about to change my front tweeters for one full range speakers ( CA WB3.e) . My doubt is if can i put this full range speakers ( 3 ohms) and the mis bass speakers (4 ohms) together in the same amplifier ( C four) ?? I know that the C four handle 2 and 4 ohms. But i don't know if can be used at the same time in separete channels speakers with diferent impendance. Thank you!
What you mention is the nominal resistance of the voice coil. Impedance constantly changes during when the speaker plays, so the amp always sees different resistance. It’ll deal with anything just fine from 2ohm upwards.
If you have OEM locations on dash, then go for it, but if you have to pull a dashboard out to get the installation done, then it’s big effort vs pillars which can also work great. Realistically tuning is the biggest challenge though, isn’t it?
in dash location you will have a ton of reflections (much harder and work with TA and EQ) instead in pillars you can compensate for that with precise orientation. note that almost all DSPs penalize you in sound quality when you use all EQ bands available in them. except Zapco and Helix as i noticed.
@@alexlaser. this is far from the truth. Pillars can equally suffer just as much from reflections and especially getting double pin-point image at certain frequencies. Of course that is rather competition level topic. EQ work is equally challenging to get it right without experience in tuning. Most of our cars have mids on the dash built for competition.
@@pssound9749 I was able to pull a dash from a salvage yard. I was already planning a dash build for midranges and tweets in the pillars. Someone on FB mentioned locating the tweets on their dash, and that got me thinking about mids and tweets in the corners.
Hey Peter 😌 South African fan here , I’m running a sealed box wit one 12” 500rms sun, what should my LFP,Sub sonic be set to ? Bass boost is always all the way down
Hi peter, thanks for the video. I have learnt alot from ur videos. I am using zapco 150.6ap×2 with dsp. Do i need extra battery for the same or my main barrry(45ah) is enough for these amps. Thanks
45Ah is rather on the low side. I’d recommend another lithium battery at the back 60-100Ah, which would give you stress-free performance even without the engine running.
Yes, that is the biggest challenge for almost everyone and that’s what makes the difference between many speakers just making noise vs Pssound systems.

Clean. Always inspirational.
Every time I get disillusioned a PS Sound video comes out and I'm back in the game.....😅
Pssound has done it again, can wait for the demo
Peter comme d'habitude du bon travail
Thanks for sharing your knowledge keep up the awesome work!
What is the most common freq range for the front sub?
I am in the process of doing two 6.5 subs in my Chevy S10 and was thinking 60 to 300 hertz ?

I know you love ib under seats Peter but have you ever tried them sealed off. Not vented into the seals. Car sounds amazing.
Unfortunately that can’t work. There is no airspace for the drivers like that, possibly like 0.5L -> zero bass below 120Hz
27:11 is that the OEM sound proofing?

Peter what are your thoughts on building the dash corners for mid AND tweets vs mids on the dash and tweets on the pillars?
If you have OEM locations on dash, then go for it, but if you have to pull a dashboard out to get the installation done, then it’s big effort vs pillars which can also work great. Realistically tuning is the biggest challenge though, isn’t it?

100% agree with you. but i'm talking for a normal person not competition level car, my mistake for not mentioning it. @@pssound9749

Are you running a ported box, if you are do you know what the port is tuned to?
What are those Focal subs like? Any good?
Yes those KX subs are great!
What is the best TOP 3 DSP under $ 500 ...???
Nice. What model front sub is that? Maybe 10” SW26DBAC76-4?
SW26DBAC76-3-DV

@@pssound9749 thanks, won't it require change in alternator?
Hi. What kind of absorber do you use for a midrange speaker?
Angelhair from Mundorf.
Thank you, but you can't buy this in our country. I use either natural wool or synthpone.@@pssound9749 T
It just seems like it would take 200 hours to try and tune this.
Yes, that is the biggest challenge for almost everyone and that’s what makes the difference between many speakers just making noise vs Pssound systems.
