Yaris Sedan Deadening and Sound system upgrade - Page 18 - Toyota Yaris Forums

Wires for 6.5 driver, I dislike this task, it's not easy. ..

Mat over CLD Tiles inside door...

A quick way to make a template to cut the mesh...

I'm running out of Mat; there is a layer of Mat + some CLD Tiles behind the inner wall that we don't see here, I'm trying to save the extra thickness that all these layers make so putting back the panel will not be as painful. And 3 layers of Mat behind where the speaker goes, remember these doors become speaker boxex now for the Mid-bass speakers (I still have to go back to the right door and finish it similar to this door).

It's nice to have the opportunity to drive with the door in different stages, naked is LOUD, and as I progress it tends to be less LOUD, but as it is right now there is a deafening noise that really bothers my left ear after 1 hour of commute.

I don't really need to cover everything, just covering and filling openings. A layer of MLV will go on top after some Ensolite and some CCF over the MLV.

Excellent job! Aren't the holes in the doors just HUGE?!?! So you pulled the whole wire harness out of the door and body? I didn't even attempt that! Pulled my new wires through the rubber loom with a coathanger, tape and lube. Maybe 10 minutes of cussing (per door) to get it done.

Thanks,
I did try that too, but I had no success, it was easier for me just to pull everything out.

I really envy you guys who are taking the time to run all that sound deadening material. I was too lazy to do that. The Yaris is a noisy little beast. Sound dampening really helps. It's a pain in the ass, but you will be glad you did it when it's all over.

Nice photo of your car. I like the colors, and the nice DoF. Good composition too. Nice clean background with the trees. Good exposure.
The only distracting element is that pole behind your car. A few minutes with the clone brush would take care of that!

That install diagram gives me wood. A 4-way system with four separate amps, components, and a capable HU to control it all.
The result: phenomenal sound!

derickveliz2 · 06-10-2010, 05:34 PM

Thanks A.M.,
Yes it's hard
Time consuming
and it's not cheap

I have a passion for photography and every time I have the opportunity I try to give a little special touch. Thanks

Yes the diagram is a 4-way system, same as sqcomp but in English should be phenomenal sound!. after all it's a Pioneer! jeje

Bah!

Carrozzeria all the way! LOL! Oh! I've got a system diagram for you guys!

This is Jon Acton's work, he's my man for the diagram.

That looks awesome,

I know the amount of work that goes into graphics [Hey that's kind of what I do at work]. Once I get done with deadening and sound system upgrade I'll make my own diagram. Very similar to yours but only one battery, One 10" Kicker Solo-Baric woofer, 6 inch mid-bass instead of 8 inches, 3 inc mid-range instead of 4, a smaller Pioneer Premier Tweeter and my amps are Pioneer and not as big as yours! in other words mine is a smaller version of your system but in English. Jeje

I rather have my HU say "CARROZERIA" instead of "Pioneer"

Looks GOOD!

Yeah, that is one sexy diagram.

A visual formula for high-end audio.

( As I stare at the diagram..... I see dollar-signs floating around my head. )

Those little woofers are going to make MUCHO beautiful noise!

Huh that sounded like George Lopez

That reminds me that I'm going to be posting my HU and EQ in the FS forum soon, but will post it here before just for the records but PM me if you are interested...

It's sad to see them go

but I have to make space for the rest of the gang!

What? Are you thinking of coming up to steal my junk? LOL!

Actually, it's not that expensive for what he's giving me; future upgrades are free, he's giving me a .tiff and the photoshop file as well as keeping a backup.

...Oh yeah, here you go D...

^If I didn't know better, it looks so VERY close to a subwoofer...

lol...... NO!

I don't even know where you live. Not to mention, I don't steal.

What I meant was, I look at that diagram, and I see components that cost a small fortune. Add up the cost of all the gear you are putting in that Yaris.
Have you done that yet?

I don't mean what YOU got it for, I mean "regular market price" for the average "joe" if he walked in off the street to buy it.

I have no idea what Audison Hertz stuff costs, that stuff is out of my price range, so no point in me researching each piece.

But if I had to guess... I would say maybe your gear is adding up to around $4,000 - $6,000? ( I wouldn't be surprised if you told me it was higher. )

I would never spend that much money for a car audio system.
My home system wasn't even close to that much money. My home system is Harmon Kardon, Onkyo, Cerwin Vega, and JBL.
I might have $1,500 - $2,000 on my home system.
My car system was around $550 total.

I'm just a cheapskate when it comes to audio. I like audio, but I never could see the point in spending big bucks on it.
I realize you are building your system for competition, and that is totally different than building a system for casual listening.

Alien Mantis,

I've been thinking what you told Herb about one 10" subwoofer,

I really would like to have three 10" woofers...

with a set up like this my poor Yaris starts rubbering the rear end, it just gets too heavy,

I came up with this crazy idea...*

* What if I put back OME rear springs that would lift the car and inch or so, but all the weight of the subwoofers/box + deadening would bring it down and inch or so. *

My beautiful balance suspension that I have right now may get spoiled, but if that aloud's me to have three 10 in woofers I may give it a try!
If that doesn't work I'll go back to plan B, with One 10" subwoofer.

Do you see all the pros and cons when you want to modify your car? and...

All it takes to acomplish a task like this

It's worth a shot. Since it's a pretty easy job to swap out the rear springs. So if you go with 3, 10" subs, plus the box, what is that going to weigh? Somewhere around 100 lbs I'm thinking. Maybe more?

BTW - SWEET looking mids! Those guys will sound soooo nice!

derickveliz2 · 06-13-2010, 01:15 AM

By the way!

I change the Oil this morning in 37 minutes flat! hey that's very good for some one like me!
