Thanks about to wake up the hood lmao
Let me know how it goes
Eric Maier it went down .....
Wtf đđđđđ
Same dawg same đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđđđđđđ
dont get shot my nigga đ
I did this a few years ago and ran into the issue of needing a better power supply. So i built my own that put out 14v with 500amps. (First one I built I used 12 xbox power bricks hooked in parallel all dumping right into the capacitor.) Completely powered 10 1" tweeters, 4 6" speakers, 2 6"x9", and 4 15" subs. (5000w hifonics amp with kicker speakers, and Kicker CVR subs, and a 20f capacitor to provide extra reservoir of power when needed) But love your setup! People dont realize how easy this stuff is to do.
Ikr sometimes people just gotta be creative đ€·ââïžđ but sounds like u had a deadly setup too and thx for your feedback đ€
How did you wire your capacitor indoors? As in how did you connect the ground wire to the capacitor?
@@SniperShotNO I used a very large old fire system metal cabinet for the "ground" and the entire cabinet is basically the neutral it's also insulated by a layer of plexi glass to avoid metal on skin contact in the event someone provides a path to earth ground.
Him : donât play it at high volumes
Also him *turns it almost all the way up*đđ
đđ u gotta do what u gotta do right
@@EricMaier Gotta Send It!
@@theinsaneunknown you already know bro đ€ââ
Lol I used to have 4 power supplies on a 1000 watt amp đ any less and it would start turning them off. None the less, I would recommend more power supplies if you can get any more. But awesome video, nice setup!
Thank you yes I could agree
@@EricMaier absolutely man!
Man i did this back in highschool awsome but i used a power supply from an audio shop
Yeah and how did that project go ?
I have two p2 12s on 1200 watts with a car battery and a trickle charger works great
I have a car sub just hooked up straight to my receiver. Its more simple that way. But anyways good job on the video
yea me2
Thank you
Receivers are very low watt rms power the sub is pretty much running on fumes with no real power wattage to achieve it's full potential
@@s7v7nfiv5 I mainly made this video to show it works not as a daily lol but you are right
S7V7NFĂźV5 my receiver blew my 10 inch
Crown XLS amps work great for using subs at home. My XLS2002 feeds my two 15" Rockford Fosgate subs 1050w RMS each.
Got dayum
Could you make another video like this please this was so useful dude
Possibly in the future yeah đ
Hey! Now I have an actual use for my 360 haha.
GREAT vid fam!
Thanks bro
I did this as well, i got the power supply at my local game shop for real cheap, $25. Yellow is power and black is ground. Easy peezy. Works great. Using a receiver to some decent speakers which is great, better than this guys set up, only because of his speakers.
Does urs make the cups rattle in the kitchen too ?
What are you talking about those are alpines
Xbox? A bit confused... so you just run the yellow wire to your amp like the power wire that normally would come from your car battery?
And that's all you gotta do?
@@EricMaier does ur make ur whole house and more rattle o thats cause i over did it with 2x 15s and jacked more power to it
Got 2 ported 12s and a planet audio amp. Bouta try this out.
Just did this with only my friends old Xbox one power brick to run a cheap car amp thatâs more than 20 years old to power 2 big ass stage monitors his dad used for his drum set đTook speaker wire from the front outputs on a receiver we had to a line output converter, rca from the loc to the amp and voila the woofers in the monitors actually do bass now. Got two Sony bookshelf speakers we werenât using in the rear
We got a Bluetooth turntable on one input, his tv on another, and a cd player in a third all of it works beautifully
It only costed 26 dollars and the price of 100ft of speaker wire as the whole old Sony stack of receiver, tape player, cd etc was in his garage for the last 15+ years as well as the monitors.
There's many more ways but this is a great way.
Should do a video using server power supplies. Used to have 6 xbox 360 power supplies for 2 of my amps. Anytime my amps reached about 75% volume theyd turn off, or explosions from movies would just turn off mid explosion. But i found out server power supplies are cheap, easy to hack and give more amperage than Xbox 360 power supplies. Running my setup with a 2600w ps, more than enough for 2 of my amps to not turn off at max.
That's good to know bro
i have a pioneer ''12'' er, can i just plug it right into my receiver / stereo. and it wont blow the stereo up?
You gotta look up the amps lol
Snuper it wonât sound as good but yes, kind of. Iâm running my 2 tens in my trunk just spliced into the rear speaker wires; no amp. Each positive and negative speaker wire on each side is normally connected to a single 6x9 each, but now powers a 10â sub and a 6x9 for each pair of positive and negative wires. 2 6x9s and 2 10âs, no amp, straight to an aftermarket pioneer radio. Works fine, solid bass, no issues. Wiring it up with an amp soon to get optimum bass soon.
Snuper It would defo work, but avrs dont really have the power to drive subs. You could hook it up to the B speaker outputs if your avr has that. Also it wouldnât be crossed over so wouldnt sound great.
Best way is to get a 120/240v power amp and hook it up to the sub preout on your avr, then power your sub with that
depends on the impedence
It's a good way to blow your voicecoils, u less you use the sub channel and make sure you have it crossed over so no treble come from the sub.
Great video. Deffinatley going to do this and shake my house up đ
Ok perfect u could also use a battery and and a charger to the battery đ just gotta let ya know people have been hating lol
@@EricMaier fuck those haters ! This is a really cool set up. Thank you for the video. Have a great summer. From Vancouver BC CANADA :)
Can you do a video on how to splice the XBOX power cord to the wires that plug into the amp please ? :)
@@michaelwolkow3767 Thank u at least it helped bring some cheer to some people . Vary nice place to live iv been a couple of times đ
@@EricMaier how do you slice the xbox power bar to the wires connected to the amp ? Can you make a video on how to do that ? Please
Creative man! You've probably come a long way in the last 4 years with this stuff
Love it. Pls fix the buzzing sound
Where did you get that cool glass table where your sub box is?
@josy furniture.com
What did you use as a remote wire, trying too set this up and my amp won't power because I don't know what to use for a remote wire
I never had a remote wire I just know that there is a wire that you splice into your audio system for when you turn you car on the amp will sence power and turn on . I just connected that to the ground I think and it worked for me
Simply cut a small wire and connect the power to the remote
"Subwolfers"đđđ
very nice
Letâs just thank the Xbox for its sacrifice
Wait let's all take a minute poor rich company
U need a better amp for those subs I got the same ones I got the 2 10s in my truck n it wakes up the neighbors when Iâm otw to work
I made a system in my room but it turns off at high volume how can i fix and also what amp settings should i use
That would mean your subs are taking in to much power pretty Much like a breaker snapping because you don't have enough power
Nice setup bro
Thank you
đđâ«
Me thinking, what a dumbass rig. The comments- wow, smart, good idea, any tips?
It's whatever lol just a how to video
Can u show us how u connected ur cap plz
(Starts blasting lilPump)
âDROPEED OUT NOW IN RICH...
Police outside âaye let me join the partyâ
I recently got in a car accident and have 2 10s 2 12s and a 1500 watt amp And 800 watt amp just sitting so imma hook it up
Sounds good let me know how it's bumps đ
@@EricMaier gotta get a second aux cord and the splitter and adapter and what ever that round thing is you got on the back of the amp
I just got new studio monitors(krk 8's g4) and they only take xlr cables. Currently dont have an interface and am stuck with an old mtx amp and 10inch kicker sub that I just took out of my VW bus. Im able to get power to the amp, but how the hell do i connect this to my studio monitors? would i need an interface? would I need to split a pair of xlr cables to go into the amp?
Why do you connect a capacitor with the xbox power supply
Can car subwoffers be used for DJ gigs?
As I plan to purchase 10 car subs & connect them to my equipment..
I have a car sub hooked up in my room closet a Gemini amp running that by itself and my peavey running my four 15s it will be fine long as you got the right amount of power
Why you dont put some tweeters to the subwoofer box ? it can be better. you just need to have one more amplifier.I see you have RCA output on your amplifier . so it can be easily connected to one device. and you can buy bluetooth receiver from ebay for 2dollars and you cam have big bluetooth speaker and you no need other external speakers.
Yeah I was thinking of maybe filming more of a perfesenal video with powering it by an actual battery and just connect a charger to it also the Bluetooth would be a good upgrade for it! Just items will be harder to find for the viewers :(
@@EricMaier hmm... can i use just 7ampers battery? because i wanna buy battery and have big portable speaker from car amplifier.. i just need to know if 12v 7ampers battery can handle it on maximum and if it would be have good bass.
@@lmofficial3269 no not to sure I would have used a standard car battery
Why do you have beats It sounds awful It sounds like a potato but the subwoofer is great đ
Just to prove to u guys that it can be done. This was just the base model setup be creative u can always still upgrade from there đ
I have 1 15 inch Sundown subwoofer
@@rcworld7146 I have a single 10" alpine subwoofer with a ported box in my truck. I would have gotten 2 12's but my truck is a single cab so i didnt have room for much and I still gotta have room for other stuff back there too. Anyway I got a 300w 5 channel amp 200w rms. 4 6 x 9 alpine speakers and 2 little 3.5 jbl speakers in the dash.
@@rcworld7146 Sundown 15 is badass tho. That's probably loud af.
How much amps does that adapter provide actually? Mine is like 2.5amps lol, that should not be enough right?
INPUT: AC 100-240V ~ 2A 47-63Hz; OUTPUT: DC 135W 12V--10.83A; 5Vsb--1A
But how can a 10amp psu sound the subwoofer loud without amp turning off?
đČâ@@Mohammedhaashim
Where exactly do you plug in the aux and if I buy a Bluetooth radio and just connect aux and speaker to the radio does that still work
I had an adapter that connects right into the amp and I also put a splitter on it one going seperate to a speaker for the sound the other just pretty much controlled the base
Will only work for low powered subwoofers. Amperage needs to be high for more powerful anplifiers.
Yes that's true you can't base boost or anything
Iâm running 2 12s hifronics each speaker is dual 4 ohm coil so they are wired at all at 1 ohm to a 2300 boss amp and Iâm running a amp for the mids and highs with a cheap 500 watt amp only with a 400 watt or 32 amp computer power supply but the power supply goes in protection mode so Iâm gonna be running 2 car batteries soon with a battery charger to charge them over night but how it is right now it still slaps even though they are moving at Quarter power this shit slaps harder already then your dads 1000$ dollar Bose system đ
Guy buy a power max if your system needs a lot of power I recommend the 100amp power max
Or 1,000 watt receiver
Would a 12 volt power supply like that Xbox cord work with 1400 watts
You have really bad buzz on your system just buy a reciver and connect the subs to that but you rather get home theater with tweeters to
That speaker looks cute and has eyes on top of it what kind of speaker is that you were using
Its a Beats Pill, but it doesnât come with the character dock. You have to buy it separately which cost around $30 - $50.
I have 2 subs, and two LG bookshelf speakers plugged into my 230 watt amp (Kenwood subs)
Is it working fine ? Sounds like a pretty cool setup
That amp gonna go bro put the sub on its own independent amp and watch the difference in power and sound
Nice setup dude!
uhm do i need better like power thing if my amp needs 30a 12v and its 300w e
what would i need to do if I would want do power the amp through the wall socket?
I need help connecting my cvr kicker to the TV since the neighbors want to be annoying
How did u make your bricks light stay green because every time I touched the blue and red wires the bricks light would turn red and not give electricity?
There is a ground that needs to be connected for it to be on it is used to indicate when the tv is on for when the console should turn on or be in sleep mode
Eric Maier And what wire would that be?
It should be the blue and red wire I don't exactly remember I don't have the set-up anymore
Jose Rodriguez I put the cables on the ground of my amp
Can i have an Bluetooth Stereo connected with my Skar audio dual 12s? Or do i need Amp
About to fight my upstairs neighbor with more power bout to buy 2 15â
Shouldâve put the subwoofers in a closet my dude itâll sound way better like a car thank me later
Honestly that would be a good idea but I already had the whole house rattling đđ
it would sound terrible all you would hear is the door rattling
random weird CZcams channel thatâs why u leave the door open I been doing this for years now it sounds 1000x better
Truther One1 my shit set up like that right nowww
dolb owen yeah i got 2 15âs 1 10 and 2. 8âs in my closet
why are you do not buy some low price 2.0 speakers and why are you do not connect them with splitter? it can be a much better sound than that.
You see I have the Xbox block but ion got the other thing for it to turn it on soooo what do I do?
kid geekin w the adapters n make shift wires đ€Ł
Where do you plug in the input to jack wires too?? And the other aux cord??
I used a splitter I found and connected it to the laptop one just for base and other leading to the beats pill playing the music
@@EricMaier howwww
that's awesome! I know it's a bit late now but you can use this... www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06VWV5YCH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ...... its a power supply that outputs 12 volts and about 3 times the watts so you'll be running about 360 watts to the speakers instead of around 100 watts. for anyone looking to do this id use this, it takes a little more effort but it's way more effective and you will hear the difference.
do you know of any in the 3000 watt range?
or 1600 or 1000
@@IND4GR0V3 so you could have multiple by wiring the dc wires in series but I wouldn't recommend wiring any more than 1200-1500 watts as it might pop your power breaker.
@@T_m_f_j_300c i have two 1400 rms subs and two 2000 rms amps do you have any suggestions? i want to put them in my house not in my car
@@IND4GR0V3 yeah if you send me a link to the amps and subs I can try and get it as good and cheap as possible in parts. Just send me a link I can figure it out.
does the xbox cord stop working when pushed too hard
How would I do it to connect it to the amp If I have one red wire and one black wire and one green wire and one white wire
I would say test the current coming from each wire and then connect the positive to where positive should go and negative to where the negative should go
The 360?!
Yea
I have a question. Do I need to run it through another speaker like in the video for it to work?
Unless if you want to hear the music in your computer , bc the subwoofers only do the bass not both
How did you split the Aux from the amp and the aux from your PC? It doesnt look very clear in the video? Did you splice the wire?
No I had an adapter that went from the amp to a aux cord then I put a splitter on that to get the external speaker going
How did you connect the capacitor ?
Look online at some diagram if I remember correctly I had a negative wire go to it with a 300 amp fuse I think and then took the leading out wire and connected it to the amp with a on and off switch
Rip the 360 cord
mine just straight up didnt work lmao
Alright I just cut open a brand new Xbox cord and I donât know what color the 4 differnt wires do. Can you help?
Black is negative and yellow is positive
I have set mine up but my speakers buzz as soon as they are powered on i need help
It's ur aux cord probably touching a ground and making like a static sound?
What about if the amp has the auxiliary turn on wire
Then you run the positive wire to the positive and the aux turn on because the auxiliary turn on is just a positive wire pretty much just has 2 positive wires and one negative
Help. My power brick turns red every time I put the blue and red together
Red means it's on stand bye as in sleep mode when it shows green it will get power đ
The power brick is weak,..caps suck, i think you should go up, that brick is only about 15A..id go like 50 amps or more
Can we see more home audio videos
If I had the extra money to throw into a setup I could make them I would
How do u hook it to the amp
do I need to use a capacitor?
No you don't
Highly recommend if you want more power but if you donât care about the surging then your fine
Its a terrible idea to power your high amperage amplifier with such a bullshit unit as xbox 360 power unit, just look how tiny these cables are, man!
Use a battery instead then and Hook a charger to it lol
You said adapter , what kind of adapter ? A aux adapter ?
Yes an aux adaptor
@@EricMaier bruh I finally got around to doing this and shit fucking bumps , got it hooked up to a baby kicker 300.1 amp and a 12 kicker l7 , stupid loud
How do you have that speaker and your subs playing the same music on one device?
I explained in the video I have an aux cord splitter with 2 aux cords one going into the amp and other going to the speaker
@@EricMaier yes I discovered it on my own before watching it again and realize I'm an idiot lol thanks man
Np
Eric Maier I think you can lower the impedance or rather increase the load for sake of audio clarity with a powered audio splitter.
what is the power source ? How many amps can this sub run?
Xbox 360 12 volt power cord and Can't tell u it was underpowered anyhow
Does the Xone power source will work also?
If it's 12 volts then yeah but again amps will be really low
Whatâs the thing called where you plugged in all the power for the amp
What do you mean
â@EricMaier the thing that told you how much power the Amp was getting
2:43 what is that plastic with screws for ?
@@EricMaier noo... the plastic screws are so the wires dont short out or shock other wires because they are cut...
So there's not current going thru mad shorting out the wires plastic does not conduct electricity
How to burn your house down 101
Use a fuse lmao
Whats a ferret? Thats wat my caption says
Holds power so the amp will not drain your battery
@@EricMaier oh oke
How did you hook up the beats to play the same as the sub
I have a splitter one going to the subs and other goes to the beats pill
@@EricMaier where can i get this splitter or got any link ...
Where did you get the table the subs were sitting on?
Josyfurniture.com
Thanks!
How did he connect the speaker for voice?
Splitter
I never recommended using a car amplifier indoors to power car subwoofers indoors because car amplifiers require lots of amps to get them working properly and using car batteries to power them indoors is extremely dangerous because of the toxic gases that car batteries give off also using a power supply to power a car amplifier indoors will work but won't properly power your car amplifier indoors because the car amplifier will draw more current than what the power supply is capable of putting out therefore I recommend using 2 receivers with a subwoofer output or using something like a pro audio amp instead because a car amplifier to power car subwoofers indoors is very risky and dangerous
I know itâs fine for what I use it for lol the power coming from the plug in is not enough to have it on full lol
Eric Maier I recommend using 1 600 watt receiver, right now I have 2 10 inch subs and 1 12 inch and itâs doing just fine with rumbling my house
Eric Maier mine was only about $400 with a set of 5 speakers and sounds amazing
@@dylan8577 yoo I have a 720 watt receiver and I'll be powering 4 10" planet audio subs
Travis Gulley can a car battery power three 1000 watt subs and I just put the car battery outside and use a long wire to wire it to the sub?
My amp doesnât want to stay on
My power brick turns red when I hook up the ground
That would be it going on standby
Put it on the floor
Your going to fry your voice coils subs should be for low power frequency not hpf it should have nun but only bass coming out not audio or high frequency notes
Can you just use a car battery?
It will work for an hour or 2 then u gotta add current to the battery
Doodoo beats
Where do I get the adapter
Amazon make ur self smart about ur models they have many adaptors just gotta word out the right names for them and they pop up
the buzzing sounds annoying tbh
my phone has more bass đ
Wtf why subs so complicated
Itâs can be I still made it simple
Eric Maier I have a subwoofer with just a + and - on the back
I need and amp going to that
Eric Maier bruh I donât got an amp
What about the rem wire?
What one
Wondering the same
@@EricMaier the remote wire (thin blue one) that is part of the wiring kit when setting up subs in car
loui Lu did u ever find out what to do about this ???
loui Lu 7073191930 if u did
"The minus part"
Haha happens when your trilingual đ€Ł
Is this still working in 2020
I dont live at the location anymore had to take the setup apart
And how loud does it play on 12v
Not very
12v is a car battery voltage sometimes 12.6 or even 14 volts the power cap is reading 14 volts so its getting more than enough power all depends on the wattage of the subwoofer if it was 1200w it would be loud
