Hey mate I’m looking at buying this sub for my DMAX I was wondering if you think it’ll be possible to wire two of these in the car? I currently have a single cab ute with a 10” sub in it and sounds amazing, but upstaging to a dual cab, that sub won’t fit in for obvious reasons.

Hey!! Nice Show!! Im putting mine in a 97 corolla

This was really helpful!! I know it wasn’t particularly rocket science but I was able to install this into my Fiat Doblo with no problems at all! Almost everything I needed was in the box, I have much richer bass now, certainly not going to bust your windows but it’s done exactly what I wanted! Would recommend!

Fantastic video and great explanation. May I ask does the P.Cont. wire need to be connected in series or can it be connected in parallel to the ignition/car unit? Thank you.

What are the connectors on the end of the wiring covered in plastic? What type of connectors do I need coming from the stereo wiring and tap a fuze to connect them all? Thanks

The aus amazon link in the description is a different model, and the one that is the right model doesn seem to come with speaker and power cables?

Nice video, I wanted to see how you mounted it to the car as I don't want to screw mine into the floor of the car. I saw on another video a guy gluing a piece of MDF to the floor under the carpet and screwing into that... I thought maybe just cover the underside of the unit in velcro and stick to the carpet? It would be good to get some ideas before committing.

hey! thanks! I want to ask you; why yu want to remove the fuse from the power csble that goes to the battery... ? apleade

so you use the front speaker channels?

Its passelboll to only conect the with and red audi cabel or is it needed to wirew the others?

I thought the signal wires from the speaker wires to the amp were signal sensing so the all will turn on and no need for them remote turn on??

Hi, many thanks for sharing your work! I have a factory JBL with a tiny subwoofer that does not really produce bass. The subwoofer is hidden in the floor behind passenger's seat. I am considering buying two of those SW11s and hiding below the seats in the 2nd row. Since I have no experience I would like to ask you two questions: 1. How much real gain would two provide vs one. 2. What would be the preferred way to connect them, tapping into high level wires powering back speakers or somehow connecting everything with current subwoofer?

@VideoShowMeHow

3 жыл бұрын

Hey there 👋 Thanks for the comment :) To answer your Q's: 2 is obviously going to give you more boom than one, should be roughly double, however, if it 'sounds' double isn't as simple, depends on placement, the car and the listener. I would recommend starting with one and go from there? Can always add another as most of the wiring will already be done. I would always prefer to connect via RCA leads (I use this method on the Pioneer install vid on the channel) or if your headunit doesn't have these then the speaker connection way like I did in the Kenwood install. Hope this helps! 👍👍

Great video! Since you now have tested out both this and the Pioneer TS WX130DA, which one do you prefer? I am leaning towards the Pioneer for my 2015 aygo using high level inputs from the OEM touch screen radio, but am unsure which one has the best sound quality as there are basically no comparisons online (video idea for you :P), hope it works out well :)

@@VideoShowMeHow Thanks for the quick reply. I actually purchased the Pioneer EA version without remote yesterday on amazon now having second thoughts that I should have got the kenwood instead; the RMS is 75w vs 50w on the Pioneer and it comes with remote for slightly less money. I do have a brand new aftermarket Sony head unit with sub settings inbuilt and RCA so I don't necessarily need the remote however. Also I just purchased 4 x Pioneer 3 way 17cm door speakers and thinking I will get the Vibe powerbox micro amp if they still don't kick hard enough off the inbuilt head unit amp... also plan to mount it in the rear where the old CD changer is currently. If the mounting plate can be modified to fit my existing screws then it should be perfect.

i like the music over speaking 🤣

Hey mate. Love your videos. Just curious to see if you would know. It’s not this sub but I’ve bought a kenwood ksc-psw8 sub and I’ve got a pretty decent kenwood head unit. I’ll be running a twin rca to the head unit that I’ve purchased additionally. Do you know if I will be able to control the sub and play with its settings on the head unit instead of using the remote or is everything set on those smaller remotes? Cheers

I installed the same sub yesterday, all went well up until function testing it with music.
