    ⏩ What's with the gloves?
    Not after any CZcams fame here which is why I'm not in the vids - they're not about me they're about the how-to! I used the gloves for the first couple of projects I filmed which just happened to be messy ones and it kinda just became a thing - easy to spot my videos! If that's not your thing and you'd prefer to watch a face, all good, I won't be offended, there's plenty of better looking ones to watch already on CZcams ;)
    ⏩ Where did this start?
    I really enjoy tinkering with different projects - they usually require a whole bunch of research and learning along the way. It's satisfying on doing a thing and standing back and going 'Yeah! Totally did that!'. I had a bunch of mates asking 'how did you know how to do that?' and 'I couldn't never do that myself so I thought; I need to start something where I can help others that might be thinking the same thing :)
    ⏩ What will you find here?
    The purpose is simply to make these videos as top quality and helpful as I can. They will always be free, there's ZERO agenda and the only motive is to try and upload what I would want to watch to help with that particular project. I'm also keen to keep building this little community and will try to answer all questions when asked - fire away :)

    FYI, if your head unit doesn't have pre-amp RCA output, the TS-WX130DA can take the input from the speaker wires. I tapped the rear left and right door speaker wires, convert the speaker wire to RCA using a speaker-to-(male)RCA adapter, and finally, connect those RCA cables to the subwoofer.

    • @Chitown388
      @Chitown388 Před 10 měsíci

      @@harryhayes2048 I'm speculating that the tap doesn't affect the sound of the tapped speaker since the subwoofer is only using that tap as a sound signal, and not using it to power the subwoofer speaker. The amp in the subwoofer drives the subwoofer speaker based on that input sound signal.

    I've got my TS-WX130DA coming in tomorrow, but I'm just a bit apprehensive when it comes to the yellow wire. How did you fit that through your firewall? I would've thought you'd push the white connector through and then pull blue and black all the way back into the cabin alongside the connector. But in your case the blue was already wired, and there's no way to fit the fuse holder through one of those grommets - or does the fuse holder come off (that'd be a lifesaver for me as well)?

      Hey 👋 Unsure on the Mazda head unit but good thing is with these types of subs (is the same for the Kenwood install I did on the channel as well) is you can install via RCA or by using the existing speaker wire. So basically these will work with almost any head unit. Checkout the Kenwood install vid if you want to see it wired using the speak wires way 👍

      The 12v wire only has a 10amp fuse so you could just wire it into your cigarette lighter socket if you didn't want to go to the battery. With the Jeep I've got all the accessories in the seperate fuse box in the engine bay so that's why I went there 👍

    You can splice the subwoofer into your speaker wires from your head unit. You don't have to use RCA outputs.
    From Crutchfield: . "If you're connecting to a factory radio (or a radio without RCA outputs), you can cut the RCA plugs off of the input harness and splice it to the speaker wires."
    I did the exact same thing with another active subwoofer box and it works fine.

    • @antoinebugleboy
      @antoinebugleboy Před 4 lety +4

      Also, if you use speaker level input, you won't need to use a remote power wire.
      "Note: If you are using speaker-level inputs, the amplifier will automatically turn itself on when the head unit is turned on. When the head unit is turned off, the amplifier will turn itself off."

      I just installed this sub, cut off the RCAs and wired the input cables to both rear speakers. The sub wouldn't power on though. Ran a remote wire to the accessory wire and it powers on but extremely low volume. Changed the input switch to RCA and all of a sudden it works perfectly sounds great. But my car has an auto door locking feature, and now when I start driving and the doors lock, the sub pops, the volume drops and the signal sounds messy. Any advice would be appreciated, I've tried everything i can think of!

    Howdy, just come across this video (and your channel) because I'm getting one of these subs for Xmas. Thanks for the video, I found it useful. I have two (2) observations to make:
    1. you didn't say what sort of tape you wrapped that connection with about halfway thro' (it was speeded up), but it looked very much like PVC tape to me (erroneously called 'insulation tape' by many). PVC tape will unwind and leave behind a sticky horrible mess in no time flat in a car interior. Much better to use heatshrink tube or self amalgamating tape
    2. The hands and blue gloves style❗ Very ChrisFix, lol. You even sound a little like him too. Was this deliberate?
