Anyone start tearing down a 2019 to install sound system?

Did anyone re-use the foam filler behind the rear seat, it seems on my case I need to do a lot of trimming to put it back.

Thanks everyone, yes Zelas, you’re right that’s all I had to do, adjusted the vehicles factory settings and the chimes came back to normal

How did you play the calibration cd?

I downloaded track 1 onto a flash drive, I don’t remember the last time I did that, lol. Then I went to where the fix was and pressed the calibration button. Now I suggest you don’t plug your amps out puts yet, because once the calibration is done the weird music is played at 3/4 of the volume, LOUD!!

It’s a pain but it will go back and yes you need to trim to where you placed everything. I even had to grind the seat back mounts to fit.

Can you eq with that dsp?

Yes you can. It has so many options that it will blow your Mind. I also Can adjust everything via a usb cable and laptop. I have a setting that allows the sound to be directed to my ears when I drive by myself,which is about 90% of the time.

Just trim it and it will fit. I was lucky enough to get the Jl Audio VXI amps that it alows me to tune it Via USB and dont have to screw around with taking the seats out when I want to adjust a setting. We all know what a pain in the butt it is to get that rear seat out. It also makes everything neat and clean. I hate having the under seats with amp and processors.

I downloaded the files to a usb drive and played it via USB. I am able to play my sound at full volume with 0 distortion and its super loud.

After the calibration is done and the signal is flat does the deck eq now work or you have to eq in the unit?

Well, I haven’t eq’d anything yet but like someone above this comment said, you can hook up a laptop and tweak the eq as you please.

After Calibration and all is flat. Set up a couple of Eqs on the Fix. You can make up at least 5 if i can remember. 1 for country,1 for pop music what ever your flavor music you listen too. You can press the RBC button on fix to change that. I left my eq on radio flat. By changing the eq , you change the EQ curve in the fix. You are supposed to use the RBC for volume control. However with our radio you can use the radio volume with out clipping the fix. I hope this helps.

Yo Chewpeg,you need to give a report on that Mmats amp! I've been eyeballing that thing and my fingers have come VERY close to clicking that purchase link......:)

Like you it was in my cart for over a week before I pulled the trigger.
I’m running an active focal flax 3 way with the Mmats 6150 and I am grossly over powering what I have but I have no regrets. The amp has a ton of power, the woofers pound with this thing and the gains are barely touched when I tuned them so there is a lot left in it. It runs with almost zero heat coming off of it after hours of garage tuning. It’s big bold and no corners cut on quality of connections.
The negative is the fan that helps keep it cool is a touch loud if you are leaving it in the open which I am not.
What sold me on it is try and find one for Re sale!!!! There is none which tells me everything and bought one myself.
Now I have a dream to have another to match.

Regarding that loud fan,read post #25 in this thread link here.Guy mentions 2 replacement fans that are much quieter.....

Thoughts on Mmats HiFi-6150D? Or something similar? https://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/showthread.php?t=407047

Long shot but...

Can anyone help me with some DSP tuning on a Audio Control D-6.1200 Amplifier? Have trouble with Accu bass not being active. Can’t find a way to make it active. Also with some EQ settings. I’ve figured out how to set each set of channels up but I still feel like I’m missing something. If there is anyone than can answer some questions and is familiar with this amp in particular that would be great.
