  • I've been working on a full car audio build and install on a 2017 VW Jetta. This build features sound treatment, a head unit upgrade, two new amplifiers, a DSP controlled signal, two 13" Subwoofers, and a custom trunk beauty panel to top off the install. In this video I walk through the whole build and we do a sound test and reveal the build to the vehicle's owner!

      Every person is different, with different needs. I have two kids, and a complete interior, two car seats for then kids in the back seat, and two twelves in the trunk on a 3K amp. It's enough to put the rear view mirror pointing straight down if I am out and about by myself, or if I have the kiddos, I'll turn the epicenter to pass through and it's as meek as a kitten. But, if I'm still around when the boys grow up, or I am financially capable of having a second vehicle, I'll go full tilt with 6 twleves and a wall, and passengers can call someone else to haul them around.

    Every vehicle I have owned I have done audio systems starting when I was 16 in 05 from the days of audiobaun and Orion. I have made my fair share of noobie mistakes. I am well informed in what to do but by no means I am a professional and I am always willing to learn more as the technology is always changing. I am actually in the middle of redoing my Mega cab and have referred to your channel multiple times to learn as much as I can and how I wanted to plan out this system. I would love to go all out on my dream system but I am making due with the best I can budget and some information you have provided has definitely helped get the most out of what I can do. Thank you for the years of videos and willingness to share your knowledge in such a clear and easy understanding way for all levels of expertise.

    Seems like a very nice system, I watched the whole series and I knew it was going o be awesome. But here is a nice cuve ball for you Mark: Try to build a system that leaves the car 100% usable (no big subwoofer box).
    I mean... The same you did with this one, but keeping the ability to use the whole trunk (the main space of it) and still being able to fold down the seats to acomodate large objects on both spaces. It would be very nice to see how that turns out and to be able to learn hou you would solve it.

    Seeing the spare brought back memories. A long time ago I had a sub floor in my trunk with a few batteries, 4 JL 12W3’s, 3 Fosgate amps. Long story short, I had a flat late at night on the highway with no cell service and not another human in sight other than a pissed off girl friend. I had to dismantle everything to get to my spare tire. Naturally it started raining. Lessons where learned that day.

    This build was awesome. I have two questions for you: what path do I need to take to learn more about how to complete installs professionally? Also, what do you think the issue may be if: when I either turn my ignition off or turn my lights off while my music is playing, the music cuts out briefly as if a power surge happens but then keeps playing. (Currently power cable to the amplifier is disconnected while this issue occurs). Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

    • @bnellynel
      @bnellynel Před rokem

      It is indeed a surge or clipping. You need to adjust your gains and perhaps look into capacitors etc to have more stable power to your amps. Some cars have circuitry that gets picky when things cycle on and off. An experience installer will be able to figure it out and install resistors or caps where needed.
