Sound system upgrade

[packetrace]

Hi, so i want to share you my project for my Sound System Upgrade in my 2009 Yaris Sedan!

I won't do it fast so it will take time but as soon as I get my stuff bought and installed I'll post picture.

I've bought my big three I just have to wire it in my car...maybe this week end

I will get my tweeter + Xover from , an EQ-6500 and 2 pionneer premiere 6.5'' from Derick...THANKS to him!



Here is my HU....it's a Kenwood MP-345U ...it has only one rca output...this is why i'm going to use an equalizer



I plan on installing 2 subwoofer in the trunk I'm open to suggestions for it...I had planned on 2 x Alpine Type-R which has 500W rms...hmmmm 1000W rms in the trunk And for the amp....I have no idea of which one i'll get!

I will also amplify my 6.5'' , my tweeter and my 6x9'' with a 4x65 watts amps...I will probabby mount my tweeter in my a-pillar with fiber glass....I'LL TRY

Looking pretty cool so far. Can't wait to see the results! I am just about done collecting all my components and then off to a shop for the overhaul.

Thanks do Derick for all his help

I'm planning to get two of them

they have 400Wrms each and 1400peak...dual voicecoil 4ohm



I'll choose the appropriate amps for them...then i'll look at an amp for the front speaker +tweeter.....and the back 6x9''speaker will wait...

And for the power...I don't know what to choose...I WILL DO MY MY BIG THREE THIS WEEK


capacitor in the trunk for the sub amp...

or

New battery in the hood

or

Keep the stock battery in the hood and a kinectic 1800 in the trunk

Suggestion ?

You are welcome,

Big 3 it's a must!
you don't need a capacitor, I'm not a fan either
I don't think you would need a 2nd battery, my HU with 3 amps was reading 13.4 v during commute and I only have the Big 3

get all in your car and check the voltage.

GREAT !!! for me you are GOD i'll buy a 12V voltmeter to get in my car with a led display :) ill mount it in the console trim

[packetrace]

I have ordered two of those pioneer sub with this hifonics amplifier and a 4 gauge amp wiring kit





The only thing missing is my ported box + my speaker amps !!

[sqcomp]

Take a look at a DD1508 in the loaded enclosure...

Those little things are amazing!

[packetrace]

I've already ordered my two subs and amps....I'm waiting them impatiently !!!!!!

Derick will send metweeter + xover + 6.5'' + EQ6500 soon


two things are missing....ported box + speaker amps

I'll go buy the boxe this week at my local shop....and the amp will wait until christmas

[packetrace]

Sub + amp + wiring kit should arrive friday :D

Going to get my ported box tommorow

And I almost finished my big three today ...just need the ground from chassis to engine !

Going to get all this wired and functionnal ...friday night !

[packetrace]

Wellll...I've received my SUB + AMP avec I've installed it

I know that wire are not well placed but I juste wanted it to work

Here is picture of my SUB in this BAND PASS enclosure



Here is the amp



My fuse



My Engine Bay ...yes I know my big three is not ended....and my grill is broken I'Ve hurted someone's bumper in the F***ing traffic yesterday



And the grommet I've used






DO YOU LIKE IT

[sqcomp]

Why are we running the wires across the engine? *Grrrr*

[packetrace]

I am running the bigthree wire in the engine because I was it like that in every tutorial

and my blue wire for my amp is there just to test my amp il run it in the back of the engine bay :D

[sqcomp]

Okay, this is going to sound like I'm being a troll. most of the people who have seen my work know it's otherwise.

Get that long wire run hidden! Don't run it across your engine. Try to keep it away from the hottest parts of the engine as well as the pulleys and belts. Take a look at my engine bay shots. THAT is clean. I'm only saying this to drive you to be better.

Bandpass enclosures are loud specially outside! people should hear you approaching from the distance

I had a big problem tonight the plexiglas has broken because of my sub

I'll look at what I will do with it

Those sub are very loud but the sound quality is poor because all other speaker are stock....

Derick im waiting for you :D pionneer 6.5 + tweeter should make a big difference....and rear 6x9 will wait....im missing money

And i need a new bumper

What type of box you plan on getting next ? Since the bandpass crapped out.

[packetrace]

Vented box....but actually my bandpass without plexiglass is a kind of small ventend box..
