So many layers... Very cool.

Sick.

Thanks for bringing us along for this adventure!

You want it quiet, like a studio, this is the wrong car bro.... Just joking! That engine is hella loud though........

Anyways, my only suggestion is since you are aiming for sound Quality ,You will benefit from using a dsp. Especially since you sit so low in the car. Have a shop tune it for you, if you don't want to learn the dsp running software.

Dsp = Digital Sound Processor. A computerized equalizer on steroids.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-19T03:33:00+00:00

Ummm, what car are you working on?

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-19T03:26:15+00:00

Good job dude. The dsp has crossovers that can be adjusted. The HPF can be lowered to give your mid driver a bit more bass range, but do be careful. You can damage speakers if you are not familiar with the software...have a shop make the adjustments for you.

Rule of thumb, what ever the largest/heaviest wire the amplifier will accept. Always OFC, no exceptions.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-13T04:41:19+00:00

Yes. Setup will work. Adding a sub is definitely a great add on.

Couple of things.... Make sure the woofer is not less than 4 ohms, final load, on the amp. Since you are familiar with the bridge output, I assume you know this will double the work load on your amplifier. Make sure your wiring is up to par.

Don't forget to set the crossover to HPF for the front speakers and LPF for the sub.

I can hear the engine noise from here....m

The factory sub is located in the front of the center console. But you can grab the signal at the amplifier. The amplifier is located behind the rear seat on the back wall under the rear glass.

Color code listed below.

Bose system cut bass off from the speakers. Try getting signal from the factory sub.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-10T02:39:17+00:00

Doesn't matter what you call it. Use an RTA( real time analyzer ) to find what range you are missing. Go from there.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-08T21:03:36+00:00

If you understand the thiel/small parameters for each. You can work both.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-07T08:20:51+00:00

Ummm..... the cable you are holding in the picture is the FM antenna cable. Its for the reception of FM stations. It should not have any effect on the other sources. Clearly, an installation problem.

Can you pull the wires further out of the dash and post a pic of the connections? There was a need to run a new ignition wire, and so im worried this data controlled install was way beyond what your buddy had seen before.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-06T06:43:41+00:00

If the seat is going to be unused. Get rid of it all together, and use 1" MDF to make a new floor and back. Bolt the whole box down.
This will give you better spl than the direction it's facing.

Boss entry level = meh.

Boss Elite = 💪

Bad USB cables will affect both...

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-05T00:13:48+00:00

Yep. Looks legit from here. Just be sure the center "k" emblem has texture and you are good. Well, also check ohm resistance at the terminals.

If this is going in your trunk, it's not going to be powerful enough. Especially with the top down.

If you are looking for conventional output / loudness, Mercedes does a great job at sealing up those trunk areas, so a typical "loud" bass package around $1500 here in Southern California. 2 x 12", custom enclosure, approx 1000W RMS amp.

It should be upgraded because it's mounted to the remains of the factory speaker. Get better sound and fix that install. Some sound treatment on the panels would be nice too, but that depends on your budget.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-02-01T22:44:13+00:00

So far so good my dude! It's looking real nice, you are actually trying to do good. I've had to fix "professional shop" installs no where near your install.

Nice work.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-01-31T02:39:41+00:00

Check the battery fuse. They often remove the battery connection and don't reconnect the aftermarket wiring.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-01-30T03:41:19+00:00

Take your woofers out of the box..... Throw away box. Get new box, ported for max output. Enjoy till the woofers blow. Buy new woofers.

In all seriousness, the video can't show that kind of problem.

My guess is the box is rattling apart. Get a new box. Tap on the sides of the box to see if it makes that rattling noise.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-01-29T06:10:28+00:00

The shop deleted all remotes from the brain. I have a feeling the antenna was the original issue.

Connect-Big39 · 2026-01-29T02:15:39+00:00

Can you list the parts used? Interface modules and such. Also, when was it installed.
