The p500 because it has a port and it's a 12 inch with. A built in amplifier peck power rating 1000watts if you want to see how the p500-12p sounds then check out my short video on my youtube channel
nice job Fro. I installed a Rockford P-300 in a 2019 mustang and the guy is complaining that sometimes he can hear his car humming when it's parked and not running? by the way it was the hardest car ever to install rear deck speakers.
eric dudley It needs a remote wire hooked up to it that shuts the power off when the car is off I had the exact same problem with mine It will kill the battery if it’s not remedied
Can we get a video of it playing? I have the 300 watt preloaded 12 and I’d like to see if there is a big enough difference with output to me justify possibly upgrading.... I’m really curious as to how much this thing makes the rear view mirror jump, how much rattle it makes and how loud it is outside the car with the windows up
unless they have the proper tools to measure DBz and output the video would just be trash. you can't judge a video unless the proper audio measuring tools are used.
@@stereoking7778 I don't suppose you guys have a video of this yet? I didn't notice on your channel but thought I'd ask. There's nothing online I've been able to find showing it playing other than one 1 minute video.
Punch eq is usually all the way down, cross overs at 80 hz, and the gain is around half. But keep in mind every cars audio system is different so the gain will vary vehicle to vehicle.
It is loud yes, but not quite as deep as other 12s I've owned and heard. Not sure if that's because I have it in a sedan coupe type vehicle (biggish boot) compared to hatchback
My cars battery and stock amp are located in the trunk. This is the first time I'm installing a sub by myself and my only question is where do I run the remote wiring to? The head unit? Or the stock amplifier in the trunk? The manual says run it to the amp, but where do I connect it? I'm so confused, I understand the rca's, power and ground but I don't know what to do with the remote wiring.
between this and a p300, any noticable difference? I am stuck between these two. I don't need earth shattering base. just something more than my stock system (which is none)
I've had my p300 10 inch for about 4 years now. Absolutely fantastic. Haven't regretted that purchase, not even once. It's been in 4 different cars now and it always kicks ass. It won't win any competitions but it's definitely a great piece of equipment.
Just installed mine it's a lot of bass for me... I have the gain Just a bit The crossover at 200hrz And the punch eq At minimum The thing weights 50 lbs
Pretty useless ‘install’ video tbh, could have done better job explaining what goes where instead of showing off how to put wires together to some annoying music 😂
What are the settings sit on? I just put two of those in my trunk and I’m trying to find the best settings.
The speaker cost more than the car but I respect that 😅
I wanted to hear it, install video was ok, but should of sampled different types of music 🎶
There's a video on my channel showing how it sound on half volume your welcome
Which one is better p300 or p500??

Yes what robert said. Go to accessory for the turn on. And thanks for the tip on tbe rear speakers.
@@stereoking7778 thanks Fro and Robert yea I had a hard time getting my fat head and hands back there.
thanks for showing us how to tape on wires around 😂😂😂
🤔 why run signal and power side by side? Good way to get interference on signal wires.
If this was a highs amp you would be right. The newer technology amps and much higher quality Rcas pretty much make this topic a non issue anymore.
@@stereoking7778 Does this apply to the amps on the p300-12 also? Wondering what the best way to organize the wires would be.
Hey does this thing bump? And is it reliable? I bought one and I’m nervous it won’t beat like an external amp and sub
They do pretty well. As long as it is set up properly it should last a long time.
Thanks man. Do you know what kind of sub they use for this?? P2??
The woofer is specific to the preloaded enclosures.
chaise schuiteman how did that speaker end up being?
Will Moore not a sub that’s gonna cause the roof to flex but it hits alright.
How much would you charge for this install?
Can we get a video of it playing?

Very nice, I just installed one as well. What do you have the gain on the box set at?

The rr&rl amplifier input...
Which would be the head unit output...
It will read a high signal and turn on automatically

@@orestszpyrka8368 What kind of car?
@@stranger242 it's been in a 2001 Hyundai Elantra, a 2007 Honda accord, a 2013 Hyundai Sonata and now currently in my 2016 Mazda 3.
Anyone know if this would be a good upgrade from the p300-12?
Two p 500-12
How do you keep it from sliding around back there? Did you screw it down?
It's mounted with Velcro.
What would be the simplest way to set the gains on this since it’s all internal?
Generally I will check for input clipping and then tune at -5 at 40 hertz by ear.
Stereo King Thanks for the response bud!
Good way to crush the power wire with the seat
Who cares
Any way I can get links to all the wires you used about to buy one of these and I want the correct wires
The wires are all Mesa branded and are not for sale online. Go to mobile electricronics specialist of America and find your local dealer.
Will this fit in a 2004 Ford F150 Underneath the backseat
No sir, too big
Just installed mine it's a lot of bass for me...
I have the gain Just a bit
The crossover at 200hrz
And the punch eq
At minimum
The thing weights 50 lbs
what does the crossover do??
Nice work.
Pretty useless ‘install’ video tbh, could have done better job explaining what goes where instead of showing off how to put wires together to some annoying music 😂
What is the Song Name
You didn’t let us hear it
I had to put a thumbs down.... you show the install and never turn the system on for us to hear...👎🏿
So you can listen to how your phone speaker sounds?
No sound lol
This shit wasn't helpful in the slightest. Nothing was explained lol.
Using copy right music!!
