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.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.

      In the 80's 90's I'd run Honda's 7,500 miles between changes using Red Line HP 5W20 and do it for hundreds of thousands of miles with issues. Back in the day it was an SAE 20 with the HTHS of a SAE 30 and SN add load. It was also very polar. Oxidation VOA was over 120. Besides those motors were SPFI and lean burn tech. I could have likely run it longer but never did.    We had a Toyota bought new I ran on Pennzoil's latest and greatest synthetic of the day with "Penthane". A made up word for a very low dose of PAO. Tried 7,500 mile OCI's in that Group III/VI chemistry and the rings tapped out at 90K. Rocker box wasn't as bad as the one Punch put up but it wasn't good either. Also a SPFI motor.    I'm around 3,750 across the board on these GDI monsters and the oil it tapped out by then usually on TBN/TAN crossover and color. Red Line HP Euro.    The AMSOIL SS brochures tell you to follow the OEM values for the service class but that it can be run up to 25K if monitored. I can't imagine what motor could go that distance and not tap out. I've never owned one.    Yes, I know. Lot's of people do. I'm just not going to be one of them.

      I knew a guy in the early 80's that bought a new Monte Carlo and ran it a 100,000 miles without ever changing the filter or the oil. Just kept adding. It looked like that inside.

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By whenindoubtuseahammer · Posted

      Good evening. I was lucky enough to get passed down to me a 2007 GMC LBZ that was my great uncle's. While the underside and rockers are more or less gone I feel like with time I can restore it to working order since it only has 110,000 miles and he put nearly every option he could get without getting the new body style since he did not trust DEF. So far I have done everything I can think of but when I put the key into the ignition nothing happens. I put 2 brand new batteries in it. Cleaned the terminals. Check all the fuses and relays and they all pass with my multimeter. I know I'm missing something that I just cant think of. The only odd thing is the OBD2 port works which makes me think its not the mega fuse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

      Looks nice. I still have my 2000, 1500. Bought a 2025, 1500 for retirement. Feels solid. These trucks have a bad rap on the internet. My brother has a `24 1500, 5.3 with 52,000 miles. No problems at all. Mine hasn`t either but mine`s only at 12,700 miles. Have seen some of these things with 100,000 miles with no problems.
