Yaris Sedan Deadening and Sound system upgrade - Page 56 - Toyota Yaris Forums

I understand...

I can tell you what's going to happen, when you put the L6 in you'll be able to take the HPF on the "low" pre-out down to around 40 Hz. I actually have a "little black box" that can help the Zeus speakers... That's a whole other topic.

Still, we know what's going to happen if you bring that 10" woofer up to 100 Hz. You'll hear localized bass. That really starts at 63 Hz region. Where is the sub located right now?

...of course the Zeus mids sound good! Look at the signal feeding them! :)

Your mid and tweeter are so on axis I do understand why you need to dial down the signal.

How close are we to getting that mid and sub in for you?

The Bachuka it's in the trunk right side facing back.

Yes, I know our Head Units are amazing! The signal makes any thing sound great!

This weekend the IDQ will replace the bachuka with a sealed .95 cu.sf enclosure

Some body is going to build the flush rings for the L6s so I'll start building the kick panels soon.

What lil black box you talking about Sq, i have the Zeus components as well.

derickveliz2 · 02-02-2011, 12:13 AM

Rings for L6s are done, a guy from DIYMA did them for me.

I did the drawings...

and Today he sent me this picture:

The piece I have may help your low end with those Zeus speakers. It's a little piece from Waves Engineering that uses an algorithm that recreates a phenomenon that fools your brain into thinking that the speakers are reproducing lower octaves than they actually are.

It doesn't really work for my application.

D,

What you need to do with those rings now is either put in Tee-nuts or thread-serts so you don't tear up the MDF. OHH! Also, have your man notch the top outside of the trim ring so when you glass, you can have a place to staple the fleece to make it even after you glass.

Could you be more specific, I don't get it. Maybe it's my English

"Could you be more specific, I don't get it. Maybe it's my English"

Never mind!

I think I got it!

Too much snow it's making me think slow!

Like this:

Notice how there's a notch on the outside edge of the woofer enclosure? It allows you to staple the material that will be resined so when you start finishing or building up, it doesn't break from the edge. It gives you something to build up on.

It's little tricks like this that make one a better fabricator. Bet some haven't thought about that...

Thoughts?

Oh, nice effect on the picture there!

CAyaris · 02-02-2011, 02:02 PM

Wait where is this notch. I have just started doing fiberglass and love the tips.

derickveliz2 · 02-02-2011, 03:17 PM

Thank you!

D.

sqcomp · 02-02-2011, 04:43 PM

You see where the staples are around the outside of the trim ring there? NOT the fiberglass...but the upper ring of staples. That is actually an 1/8" notch on the outside of the trim ring put there purposely so I could attach the fleece and still build UP not down after sanding. Do it the other way, without the groove, and you'll find that the glass on't be even.

derickveliz2 · 02-05-2011, 03:17 AM

This is what I'm getting!

D.

sqcomp · 02-05-2011, 03:06 PM

That seems like it'll work. I might not have done it that deep on the groove, but you've demonstrated the idea. The groove doesn't have to be deep, just enough to get the substrate and staples in there. It's a simple adjustment on the plunge router. Now, get those tee nuts or thread serts for mounting the speaker in there.

derickveliz2 · 02-05-2011, 11:41 PM

Yeah, it was hard to find some body to build this rings for me, unfortunately I don't have the tools, I would love to do all my stuff. I'm looking forward to get them in the mail in the next few days! I'll let you guys know and post my own pictures.

Yes, tee nuts or thread serts I should get sooner than later.

D.

sqcomp · 02-06-2011, 07:00 PM

D!

Why didn't you ask me? I had no idea that you wanted this done. I could have done it. PM me, How much did these cost you?

chester816 · 02-07-2011, 03:09 AM

how about sound deadening your front fender? which noise came from road to tayer and to our fender.

Done!
Very effective, specially on rainy days or snow slush.
