Along with having the entire truck covered with Dynamat, its sealed so tight that when I put the hvac on, your ears pop. The doors have 100% coverage on the outer shell and the inside shell. Floor, firewall, and roof completely covered. Its stupid quiet when the radio is off. Almost weird feeling. Even with the Borla ATAK exhaust.

Forgot to say that the only reason i didnt put the tweets where you did was because i felt like there was to much seperation between the mids. This pic was before i installed the woofers.

So are your tweeters, mids, fd woofers running off one source signal (L or R) and "crossed over/tuned" 3x, or do the dash mids run the center channel mono source? What JL processor hub do you use?

The nav-tv unit takes the full range signal from the radio and sends it to the jl vxi hub. I think when you use the nav-tv unit, i think you loose fader. Then the hub distributes the full range signal to the amps. Then the amp inputs are programmed to each speaker position. So then you set crossover points, gain, and time for the specific speaker you assign to it. So, you really could have a woofer where the tweeter is. Its all settings. The amp does all the work.  Its like having a 30 band eq for each channel of the amp.

 

Im using all 8 channels.

2 front tweeters

2 front midranges

2 front woofers

2 rear door focal yellow components running passive

The 600/1 is running a shallow mount 12" jl sub.

 

Its all tuned via laptop and done wirelessly too. Check out the jl app. Called TUN.  Pronounced tune. They have a simulator to play with. It took a couple hours to set up all the speakers and hook up the rta to make sure there are no dead spots.

 

 

Check this out.

Damn. That's cool. I might need to get a Twk88 just to play around. Thanks for all the detail. Very nice setup you have.

Thanks. Yeah. The settings are so detailed that i dont even know what some are. You would definately need an rta to show what frequencies you have, dont have, and when they come in and out.  You really appreciate your components when they are playing how they are meant to be played.

I did my fair share of car stereo installs back in the day, some competition, some sound quality, but I would be completely lost today...The technology has come a loooong way. Awesome setup

Hey guys, can anyone give me some tips in fixing my problem. 

 

So I got a used 2014 silverado LT and front speaker went out along with dash speaker so I opened the dash and found 2 tweeters. Is there a specific speaker that I need to install?

 

Also I swapped the oem door speaker with jbl and there is no sound coming out.

    • Have considered installing a DC to DC charger in your camper to replace your isolator?  
    • Common failure.  You need to replace the fuel door housing.   The painted cover transfers over to the new housing.  To remove the old one there is 4 spots where you poke the plastic to release it.  
    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?
