The sub box surprised me, also i like how it fits so deep into the wheel well, plenty of room for the mid bass :)
I wish I had found your channel 2 years ago! I have a 2006 Honda Odyssey and I think it would make more sense for me to do enclosures the way you're doing in this car!
I don't normally comment because most people say what I'm already thinking but DAMN!!!!!!! This is about as high end as it gets. That box is unreal! Also the kick placement was awesome. Such nice work guys!
You should check all his vids... they are almost all high end!
@@explorinlearnindoing5462 I'm a subscriber, I was just complimenting bro
You probably already know but some strategic use of cardboard under/as a part of your tape job prior to fiberglass, can give “ramps” or whatever necessary around edges to reduce that tight fit
Cause we all love our Bosch jig saw as a bit of kit!
Great stuff guys!
I'm preparing myself for part 3!
Peter congratulations to you and your team. Another great job.
The deepness is so ur legs dont get crushed
Love the work again!
Nice install 👌
back in the late 80s i did an ib kick install. I used the holding power of the magnets to hold the speaker to the car body, install done.
Thanks for this great video! Will love to see the ib install of the amarok ;-)
very cool project. please make a video when its done where you play some music with the microphones in your ears. i really love those.
Cutting the midbass with jig saw ....lol....that's old school ...nice!
With a new school Festool jigsaw! 😜😃🔊🔊
@@pssound9749 lol...get it done...style points are for CZcamsrs that don't actually do real world installs
Excited for this build as it's not too far off from the equipment I have. Still trying to decide between using my Topping D10 or iBasso hi res player into the V Eight.
@@rap-soldier2185 I have the iBasso DX240 with the same DAC chip as the topping D10. The problem is that the helix v eight doesn't take 192k sample rate through optical
@@sammyb_tcg3485 unless you can hear over 48khz 96khz sample rate is plenty, I would always go digital if I can into a dsp so I’m not sure what difference dacs make in the devices
Some people can’t listen to less than 384k these days…yet they wouldn’t hear difference above 44.1k blindfolded.. 🤦🏻♂️
The video is great! I have a question for you, I own two pieces of JLaudio 12w3v3-4 woofer, is it better to put both of them back in the trunk or to put one front and the other back?
Get yourself an air hacksaw,so much easier than the jigsaw
I have one, but compressor is not strong enough. 🤦🏻♂️
I believe just to get better sound out of this 2006 Honda Odyssey will be better to do the things that you were doing versus adding a subwoofer all the way in the back!
I did a system (4th box build in my life) in a CLK cabriolet. It came out nice but my sub was a JL 13.5 shallow on top of spare tire. It had a really good sound...but u are letting us know it could have a better sound in front?
Those mercs do have big footwells.....
what kind of material to bond wood and fiberglass. i am talking about the green one
Peter , in my Cadillac CTS, Im at my last component to buy a DSP
My installer trying to get me to buy the
Helix DSP mini MK2 ,
Though I’ve always been a fan of zapco but from the 80s
The zapco looks great and comes with dash unit, there both near same price
What do you feel a better DSP ?
Amps Taramp smart 5K
And 4 ch, 1000watts AB
Skar amp
I have the LC8 too
So zapco or Helix?
1st☝
Buy a small air saw

filling with water to see how big it is and if it leaks? how i do it i install driver and take impedance curve and play if it leaks somewhere.
and how do you find then the place of where it leaks..?
@@saulidze pushing driver and listening, few needle hole size doesnt even matter. my latest box was 100% wood, i dont want to soak my box. and if you take impedance curve youll see possible internal resonances as well.
Peter what is the price of a birch plywood in the u.k. In the u.s is 120 dollars in California.
£80-90 for the 3/4”, so similar.
What are the best head units for sq ?
Head Unit? Haven’t used one for 6-7 years! DAP/phone/tablet/DAC, etc.
Sony xav-9500es is good option
Where did you get that vacuum hose? What is it called?
It comes with Festool vacuums.
@@pssound9749 Thank you Peter!
No lock tite in that inner box screw???????
No, but it has spring washer, so don’t worry!!!!!!! Ohh, few more !!!!!!!
@@pssound9749 Perfect!! Thanks for the reply!!
IT'S NOT NECESARY AND DONT COUNT FOR A CC CALCULATIONS

I don't understand how installing midbasses off axis in kicks is better than installing them in doors.🤔
Axis of midbass in 3way where they only play between 60-400Hz doesn’t matter at all! Wavelength is too long to be directional.
Door locations suffer from cancellations in intended frequency range, whereas kicks don’t. Doors are flimsy and have many rattling parts, kick are rigid. You can not list a single reason why doors would be better acoustically than kicks.
I thought that a more on axis approach in kicks would deal with the huge dip around 150hz on driver's side.
@@kostas133kostas never. 150Hz is over 2m long wavelength. You can turn that driver in any direction, it won’t effect that. You can try it though and see it for yourself! 😉
@@pssound9749 That’s really eye opening. (Or ear opening ha) I always thought a well prepared door would be best. But yes that makes sense. Thank you for sharing.
