Yaris Sedan Deadening and Sound system upgrade

I'm all for the EQ boner and such... but before you go out and spend $200 or more dollars on eq's you may or may not use... install your parts, then add one piece of signal processing at a time. Tweak with it as much you can over the course of a week or two, then evaluate if you want more tweaking capability.

remember that your signal quality is technically going to go down with each component you put in the signal chain before the speaker. A single processor like an eq is good, but if you start adding all kinds of goodies like dash eq, trunk eq, line boosters, active crossovers and so on.... you're just getting away from KISS, and that is rarely good.


I'm sure the four.1 is a fun toy....and if given one, would install it in a minute. I just wish it had more like 7bands, or... say 4 bands, but all in the 35-200hz range, so I could dial in the sub/midbass perfectly from song to song very quickly while driving.

Thanks, looks like a plan.

I've been putting more CLD tiles and RAAMmat BXT inside the front right door, next will be to remove the OEM speaker.

Here are the pictures of the front without bumper; I did put a Tile of CLD in the back of the licence plate and 1/8" CCF (faom).
