I used some old car audio stereo equipment to add some music in the garage while I work. I had to make it look good though. Old Alpine headunit with two coaxial two-way speakers, complete with front AUX and USB inputs, and pockets for the remote and a phone. Completed the look with an LED lit front trim panel using car audio fabrication techniques. Powered by an old computer power supply. Possible add-ons to the stereo in future videos. Thank You for watching. Your support is appreciated.
The Setup:
Headunit: Alpine CDA-9886
Speakers: Alpine SPS-100A 4" 25W RMS Coaxials
Remote: Alpine RUE-4202
Old Desktop Computer Power Supply
USB/AUX Mountable Extension
Terminal Strips & wire.

Lots of work, but that's why we live life and enjoy our own work
Definitely! Gotta take pride in everything we do
Amazing work
Thank you!
Oh man just beautiful! Too cool!!!
Thank you!
Working on mine right now. Well I was, but I always get lost in some good clean wiring pron! 😉
Nice! I’m going to use a couple lengths of aluminum angle to mount my DIN sleeve to my enclosure.
Beautiful work! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
This is so clean it's sick!!!! Way beyond well done, bro.
Thanks a lot!
That’s badass dude 😎
Thanks a lot
Great work, many greetings from Austria.
Thanks a lot!
Wow..great Job Bro!!
Thanks a lot
Your creativity and skills are really impressive. Great project build as always! 💯
Thanks a lot x-factor. I appreciate your continued support!
Came across your work looking at doing a head unit in my '17 accord, however that turned out to look like Pandora's box. Anyways, I just wanted to let you know that your work is not only amazing, but inspiring. Your detail and organization are through the roof man, really. I've built a few garage sound systems with spare parts, but nothing like this. I really like the CPU power supply. Keep up the amazing work.
Thanks a lot! I definitely take pride in (most of) the work that i do. I’ve got a few projects in the queue, but I haven’t had time to work on them. It’ll get more videos up soon. I think the maestro interfaces are compatible with the 10th gen Accords now. I may end up trying that eventually to follow up those videos. But that may be the route to go if you want to go aftermarket in your car.
Clean wiring setup!
Thanks a lot!
Nice work
Thanks a lot!
Dang brother, that is a clean setup. Great job. 👍🏾
Thank you!
Nice work boss love this kinda stuff
Thanks a lot!
Nicely done!👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks a lot!
Oustanding. Well done sir!
Thank you!
Almost 3 years later, but still looks good to me. I'm not sure I understood the magnets for LED power though. I guess a solid update could be a wireless charging pad in that cubby. Either way, good work.
Thanks a lot. I kinda rushed explaining that part about the magnets. It’s basically just a quick disconnect connector made out of magnets so I can remove the front panel without having to worry about loose wires. I have a few more videos I need to edit before I can get back to the shop stereo. I’ll be adding some rear speakers in the garage and possibly a subwoofer, but that’s the next project after the next two or three videos I get posted.
Very clean build Man U got skills 💯
Thank you!
Nice work!
Thank you!!
nice build
Thank you!!
So cool. You did an amazing job. Your video inspired me to add a sterio in my shop😊
Thanks a lot. Glad I could inspire you!
You’re indeed a source of pride to your Mom.
Sounds mad. 👍
Thanks a lot!
my man!
great video, nice project
Thank you!
Whoa AJ Thanks for keeping us updated bruh! Keep it up Broski, 👌
No problem. Thank you sir
@@AyyJayy02 You are Ajizzle forizzle!
Bro thats sick
Thank you!
Love the build bro. Never thought about using the magnets to transfer power for the leds bro
Thanks a lot! Still got some speaker boxes I need to add on in the future.
That’s dope 👍
Thanks a lot
i'll bet you worked as an installer. i love this design! reminds me of my days installing car audio for a living.
I never did. I’ve done it as a hobby since high school though. I don’t think I would like installing as a career with these newer cars.
Wow, this is so sick! Nice job!
Thanks a lot. I’m currently making some additions to the setup. Hopefully I’ll have an update video soon.
@@AyyJayy02 sweet! Can't wait to see it
I’m just about ready to make my own, and this has given me the push and want to create something similar. Amazing work.
Thanks a lot! I’m glad it could give you a push. We can all motivate each other.
@@AyyJayy02 absolutely man. I do have a question. What do you recommend the min req. be for the power supply? I know your using a old computer power supply but what would I be looking amperage wise? Obv. I know the 12v part, but just confused when it comes to looking for amperage. My setup would look the same, but adding a Alpine type r 10” and matching amp.
The amp rating should be labeled on the power supply. I’ll have to double check what’s on the one that I used. Check the fuse sizes on the amp and headunit. Add those numbers together, and that would be the bare minimum number for the power supply, but you’ll want to go higher than that. I don’t think a computer power supply would cut it for an amp for a type-r though. Probably go bigger than that.
@@AyyJayy02 ñili
I used self-powered speakers to avoid the power supply and associated wiring. To power the head unit, I used a standard 120VAC to 12VDC wall plug I found online for $11. Though my system is clean looking, yours is much more detailed and eye catching with a splash of bling. Nice work!
Thanks a lot. Gotta do what you can to have some tunes while you work.
Bad ass bro.
Thanks a lot!
Way to make nice work out of everything you have laying around
Thanks a lot! Gotta use it for something!
This is very, very nice. I'm not a huge fan of the removable trim panel, I feel like I'd knock it off by accident at some point and damage it, but it isn't mine so I hope you enjoy it man, it looks great. All she's missing now is a little subwoofer to fill out the sound and that's super easy to do.
Thanks a lot! Trim panel should be pretty safe. It’s flush with the rest of the cabinet. A couple speaker boxes for some 6.5” speakers and a subwoofer box are in the plans. Not exactly sure when that’ll be though. Soon I hope. Just been really busy.
This is fantastic and I love the nice neat wire layout. A pc power supply seems a bit much for the radio only but if you had it laying around who cares I guess.
One think I would do if I were you is add a wireless charger to your phone bay connected to one of the constant 5v wires so your phone can charge too.
Thanks a lot. I’ll have some LEDs connected to the power supply when I finish a couple speaker boxes for it, so I can utilize it more. I did think about the charging cord, but honestly, I’ve just used a Bluetooth receiver plugged into the AUX jack and have had my phone in my pocket usually while working 😂
Similar project to mine 😎 nice work
I just watched the video of your stereo project. It looks great. The metal work is nice. The editing of your videos is really good too. I just subscribed.
@@AyyJayy02 glad you like it ☺️ thank you you 🤘🙏
would love to see the follow up video with the other speakers
Got a couple other things I’m working on first, but they will be coming!
I N G E N I O U S indeed!!!
Thank you!!
Nicely done sir, ive been wanting to build one in my garage!! You should add an amp and sub later on maybe, be pretty sick imo👊🤟
Thanks a lot! Yeah, it was a fun little project. I just finished up a couple speaker boxes for some 6.5” speakers to fill in more sound in the garage (video will be up in the coming weeks). The subwoofer will happen eventually. But I’ve got a couple big projects lined up before that.
Can you go more in depth on how you wired the old power supply to the head unit please and that is super cool
I’ll be adding more to the setup soon, so I’ll see if I can talk more about the wiring then.
I did the same thing for the workbench put woofers Under the workbench but now 2 years later still having a problem figuring out which antenna to use with no reception in the garage
Can I buy this one and you make you a new one Lol. Great vid!!
Haha! Thanks! Sorry. Not enough unused electronics in my garage to make another one.
Looks Awesome! A wireless charging pad in the phone cubby, definitely would be a consideration. Also I get the use of the PC power supply, because you had it on hand but they produce a lot of heat and take up a lot of room. That room would be better used to place an external hard drive linked to the USB for MP3 storage. Nevertheless you did a great job.
Thanks a lot. I’ll consider the wireless charging pad. I’ve got a bunch of charging cords, but I seem to never have any in the garage when I need them. I gave up on MP3s shortly after Apple Music came around, so I didn’t even think about a hard drive. But I plan on expanding the stereo pretty soon, so we’ll see what happens.
@@AyyJayy02 I look forward to your upgrades.
That's not a boom box, it is a work of Art (with a capital A). Very clean and organized layout. I do have one question for you though, where did you get that fabric that you used? The first one you cut. It really has a beautiful texture to it. Thanks and really looking forward to future projects.
Thank you! Clean layouts is what I always strive for. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B077BSN27Y/ I think that's the one that you're referring to. I almost felt like the glue seeped through the fabric though. It looks really good though.
@@AyyJayy02 Thanks. That is exactly what I was referring to. I used to help set up pool tables in my youth. We used Scotch super 77 spray glue to attach the felt to the slate. Once you spray that glue on one of the surfaces and then attach them together, nothing moves. You may want to give that stuff a try in the future. Thanks again.
I haven’t had problems with felt or speaker box fabric, only vinyl fabric. Humidity gets bad where I live, so that could be part of it. Thanks for the info though.
HEY... you said you didn't wanna.. I have a receptacle I need replaced lmao.. so we can eventually work on this STOOOODIOOO that I am slackin' on.
I didn’t hardwire it to another receptacle. It’s just a receptacle with a plug on the other end. I don’t mind doing that in the garage, but it’ll look bad in your house.
There’s no way you don’t know an electrician
@@AyyJayy02 I do, you. lmao
Only low voltage for me. I think there is another 0 at the end of an electrician salary.
@@AyyJayy02 😂
💪😮👍💯
Thank you
Мастер, золотые руки!
You got those running full range or does that unit have a crossover in it?
I can adjust the LPF and HPF. It’s a pretty good headunit. I have an audio processor that can be used for it, but i think it only has RCA outputs. I’ll just stick with the high outputs.
Do you have a link to the LED strips you used here?
I think this was the one.
www.amazon.com/dp/B00MHLIFO8
It is said that the car stereo does not provide many details such as home audio, because it works on 12 volts and 4 ohm speakers. Is this true?
Lower ohm load can reduce sound quality, but allows more power. It’s easier to get a better sound in home audio than it is car audio. There are a lot of obstacles that can ruin the sound in a car versus home audio. It just takes more work. Or so I’ve heard. I’m not a pro at all, so someone else could give a more detailed answer for you.
@@AyyJayy02
thank you
How can I mAke something similar without the computer thing
Any 12V power supply within the amperage limits of the headunit should be fine. The computer power supply was what I had on hand, so I made use of it.
Whay kind of converter 120 v did u use for the head unit
I used a computer power supply.
@@AyyJayy02
Thks
Where is the antenna? Don't you need it?
I didn’t have one at the time. I usually listen to streaming music or USB. I did order one though, and I’ll install it when I add a couple more speakers in the garage.
Can you make me one and I'll just add my own stereo please and how much
Sorry, I only do stuff like this as a hobby because I don’t have a lot of free time. I just do stuff for myself, family and close friends.
Doesn't look like you vented the enclosure.
I actually forgot to show the side of the cabinet. The fan for the power supply is blowing out of that hole that I drilled in the side. I may upgrade the fan if I feel like it gets too hot.
@@AyyJayy02 As long as you have a way for air to enter and exit you should be fine. Nice work.
too much work just use a old laptop
charger
Already had the PC power supply, so it worked out. I think some people use Xbox power supplies.
Nice job not including proper ventilation for the power supply. lmao
Thanks! It hasn't appeared to be a problem yet, but I did plan on adding bigger fan to it, eventually. I want to build a couple speaker boxes for some 6.5" speakers that I have laying around, and I'll address that issue then. That's a few videos down the road though.
