Chevy Cruze part 3 Oh man this one is done, yay Installer Diaries 109

[@peternevai8929]

Been doing this professionally for years. From basic upgrades to competition car audio upgrades including designing Bass Drag race competition systems, You are pros and know your stuff.

[@luvmybeemer]

You guys are professionals! You actually care about your installs and making cars sound good!

[@deanslegos1990]

Truly 5 star

[@TechTimeWithEric]

I like rear fill. You are right about timbre matching, that is extremely important.

[@JustEnufCustoms]

You guys are great and very fun to watch I learn a lot from ya'll and as a installer it's great stuff. Have a great day and this 3 part video was awesome.

[@bartlett1389]

i have a type r 10 in a ported box with an alpine mrv-m500 running at 4 ohms so rms 300w and it rocks smooth on anything i throw at it it's worth every penny you put in

[@steveweston4444]

Real good videos guys, I like how you took us from beginning to end with this one. I see you having you own tv show on discovery at some point.

[@UrAvgBasshead]

I would like to see where you guys put the grounds. Sometimes that’s overlooked and it’s really important piece of advice. Thanks guys.

[@stopdalies]

Lmbo the model number being read reminded me of the old speak and spell toy. That alone made my day, you guys are great.

[@jamesorr1200]

Love the tuning tips!

[@flatdog691]

What type of guy doesn’t want to wake the neighborhood I’m almost 50 and I see myself at 65 hitting the bass waking up the snowflake 20-40 year old crowd one day lol

[@ttss5726]

better get at it then times running out for you :)

[@kenorton5531]

Such a simple sentence, yet it carries so much information. It tells the reader your age, yes, but also your geographical location, your level of education, your voting preferences and your psychological malady.

[@SDS-1]

Lol I take selfies when I test the speakers too. 💞

[@michaeledwards7331]

I'm working on a Chevy spark new Chevy's are a pain in the butt

[@cjenner865]

I ride my bass knob... Its a problem for me switching from rock to electronic music non-stop.

[@ADR69]

Can you record the reaction of customers as you're explaining and showing them their installs?

[@ADR69]

Rear fill just increases volume which is nice for some people. Sound is very subjective

[@cup_and_cone]

Rear fill matters the most when you turn your head, you hear the front bias and imbalanace (absence) of sound from the rear. When we drive we're constantly turning our heads around, not stuck face forward like a mannequin. In a parked demo it doesn't matter too much, but in "real world", most people find lack of immersion.

[@alexisking4316]

thechosendude rearfill is absolutely your worst nightmare in sq installs rear speakers in general other than a subwoofer ruins sq installs

[@cup_and_cone]

Alexis King - If SQ were king we wouldn't be sticking speakers in OEM locations, either. Everything is a trade-off. For many people they just want full immersion.

[@alexisking4316]

I agree bud I just said that to say if

[@facemobb111]

I have a 2016 Chevy Cruze with factory 4 speaker system . No amp..I'm wanting to add a aftermarket amp but I wann use my factory door speaker wires. How can I do this without running all new speaker wires to the aftermarket amp?? Thanks

[@mogge9604]

Love the bass from the selfie song 👌😊

[@JayLand1973]

I'm hoping u 2 will be working July 11-17. My family and I will be down. Hope to meet you u then. Thanks for your videos.

[@christopheranderson9240]

Morning guys! Always a good way to start the day

[@flatdog691]

Love my 12" Type R it hits guys

[@kd7kmp]

Great three part series. This was fun to watch and learn from you two. Just a quick side note (not that it matters much): timbre is pronounced /'tamber/. Timber is wood used to construct things or the word called out when felling a tree.

[@MegaRcdrifter]

Timber

“Its fire, dude” - Dean, 2018

[@raymondjaramillo7951]

Ive seen installs and wow great job guys!!!

[@oscarvaldovinos7468]

Love you work, great job guys👍🏼

[@BRAZENCHROME]

Lol you guys are great I love your show. I also like how you guys take your time to do the nitpicky things to make it right in tuning. A lot of stereo shops do not they put it close and call it good and kick it out the door and it's not even set right. You guys rock, good job, keep it up in doing it right.

[@maness2112]

I ride the bass knob plus my epicenter knob on every song. Make my lean in my car purposeful.

[@leonkernan]

Quote of the day: It's fire dude.

[@BoostedCruze]

This video should have way more likes. Awesome video!💪😎

[@berto928]

The 2018 “Dynamic Duo”...bravo guys, awesome install and info!!!

[@1Pueblito]

Is the Audiocontrol LC2I a good option for adding an amp to a Cruize?

[@Conqueef-tadoor]

Outstanding work you guys!!!

[@deanslegos1990]

The Cruze alternator can handle all this?

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

great work guys

[@JohnnyJTav]

Nice Subwoofer... Bad Looking Box

[@travishoel3755]

Great video guys

[@NghtMre-zn2bw]

I have blown 6 of the new Alpine type R subs with an Alpine amp made for those speakers. Never had any luck with them. I had to change to a Rockford sub.

[@deeeezel]

NghtMre 1428 I switched to sundown sa12 as of right now it's taking close to 1700 watts daily

[@PanameraTurboSEHybrid]

Not trying to offend you, but you probably had the amp tuned wrong.

[@bbfoto7248]

+NghtMre 1428 Were you using a sealed or ported box made to Alpine's specifications, or one that was properly designed using BassBoxPro or WINisd? Did you verify that there were no air leaks in your subwoofer box? Did you use an amplifier that sent way too many Watts than the subwoofer(s) are rated for? Did you wire the subwoofer(s) properly to provide the correct ohm load to the amplifier you were using? And was your amplifier and gain stage set up optimized so you were never Clipping the output waveform of the amplifier? Did you engage the bass boost via the amp's bass knob AND then also boost bass via EQ using the Head Unit? Did you send all of the subwoofers that you blew back to Alpine for warranty replacement? They can easily tell what most likely caused the subwoofer to fail by the type of damage or what part of the subwoofer caused the failure. This will help them to fix a problem or find a solution if there is in fact a design flaw in these subwoofers.

[@joseaponte5654]

Hi dean I was wondering if u can make an hardness for the Chevy Cruz hardness for me ..

[@ianseiler8813]

I just got done watching all 3 parts. And I have the same car with the same stereo. I just want to replace the 6x9 with some better 6x9 subwoofers and I was wondering if you had any suggestions on what type of 6x9 subs I should buy? I like my bass with low 🔊BOOM🔊.

[@Clint_L]

Gotta love Sia’s voice.

[@johndavis6596]

You guys have great videos guys, and you do excellent installs! If you need to figure out what a song is use the app Shazam! Let Shazam listen to the song... 9 times out of 10 it will give you the artist/song name.

[@rc121crx]

A sealed box !? Oh no.... it's gotta be ported and tuned to 31 hz . Otherwise it's not going sound good. 🙄 my type r 15s sound excellent in 2.5 cubes 😎

[@jesuspadilla6428]

Excellent work. Wonder how much the install was? Probably high but at least it was done right.

[@matthewlobberecht6187]

I'm thinking about adding 6x9s in my 2014 cruze as it didn't come with them from the factory. The problem I have is running wires the right way to the back to get sound without any issues. Any help on how to do this. Can you make a video or tutorial on how to do this?.

[@jayallison3538]

There are amps that the sub channel puts out some very good power Memphis 5 channel puts out 1100 watts to the sub or subs and if your doing a single subs a dual2 is ideal better than a 4ohm sub wired down to 2 ohm

[@avrajsamra4548]

Jay Allison yeah but it’s not all about how big the number is, it also depends on how clean the power is also

[@ilovetoyotatrucks]

So I ran My first Choo Choo train - I hooked it up to A earthquake BT4000 Bluetooth EQ & ran out RCA'S to a massive audio bp1000.4 4CH 380WATTS or 360watt RMS 2OHM stable bridgable 4CH There is no gain on either other than bass gain < all the way down> But there is a 9v output for RCA and the massive audio 4ch happens to accept up to 9v now I have the amp set halfway & the EQ is either 50% or 75% on mid midbass trebil & BASS is 25% or 50% no rattling sounds loud AF & super super clean- I'll post a video- But she wants it louder it extremely loud but the amp RCA voltage is at 50% / 4.5v I can go 100% to 9v but is that bad I'll retune the EQ obviously as needed but I feel it might not get much louder other than the speaker's< 4 ALPINE 6.5" the thin Mexican 1's from amzn> breaking in!

[@xXThePointXx]

Cool to see some tuning tech! Would love to you guys do a video tuning the AudioControl D series. I'm looking at doing a 3 way front with the D-6.1200 when it drops, but a 2 way front and rear fill with sub would be cool too.

[@RG-nv3gw]

OblioAndArrow, I second that! I have the D4.800 + GTR1001. But these videos are backlogged 6+months. That means we'll have to wait for Paul to sell one this year, and the video will be posted next year... lol

[@xXThePointXx]

R G Haha They could do a live stream? Lol There just aren't too many vids on tuning. I'd love to see them do one!

[@mopar392ta3]

Type R. Not R type lol good job guys. Fernando should talk more

[@jimbanville]

Can u please explain exactly what is going on when u r setting the amp gains for 0db and -5db? I’m assuming u r playing two separate tones (one 0db and one -5db) with the radio at its maximum undistorted volume.

[@Dave97456]

Nando Pedi: Fire, baby!!!

[@mycoptah]

Do you think the location of this amp would be problematic due to the heater vent right beside it?

[@dturbo306]

How good are those R types? Planning a build in a new car but want it to have good sound quality. I was planning on 6.5 r type components in front, 6.5 coaxial in rear doors, 2 12" r types ported and a pdx f4 and an m12 for subs

[@BoostedCruze]

I have a 2019 CHEVY Cruze. What do you recommend for the dash speakers. Do you guys have a video related to what I recommended?

[@shonsberge]

timber matching? or timbre (tam-br) matching?

[@JohnSRosamond]

what is that techno song you're playing Dean? The one you play a few times when testing the radio (and then say that's not what the owner listens to)?

[@vee790]

Hi guys can you help me with a question I have a bypassed my infinty amp in 2004 dodge durango with a 5 channel amp all the speaker are working except the front driver side tweeter do I lose this channel or no is there a way to check if its blowin or not? I switched rca already to see if that was the problem not help

[@andysandoval576]

How can I get a shirt that has a car audio brand logo??

[@feariraq3677]

Been waiting

[@nicholasking29]

Do the R type or S type handle more power input?

[@lakorai2]

Nicholas King type Rs handle much more power. They destroy the Type S

[@fdfc78]

Do you guys not build your own boxes??

[@lakorai2]

fdfc78 in one of the QA videos Dean explained that they outsource that work to someome else. The dust and noise isnt practical considering they only have one small bay. Bigger places like Steve Mead and Car Audio Dynasty have huge shops and tons of room. Steve Mead even has two CNC computer controlled laser cutting machines to do his boxes.

[@fdfc78]

lakorai2 Just started following them and was curious. Makes sense though.

[@workaholic7600]

Dean, are you looking weight? You seem a little off too.. Hope everything is ok man!

[@lakorai2]

All that work... And the guy refused to use an aftermarket head unit. Could have used that money from the line ourput converter towards a head unit and saved loads of money on labor costs. I dobt understand the obession with making everything "look factory".

[@ttss5726]

had you actually listened to what was said first they don't even make a dash kit for it and second there was features he wanted to retain. Youre the type that wants attention and so off your flash others prefer actually being able to not have it stolen because if there is no flash then there is nothing to steal according to the criminal world.

[@lakorai2]

If he cant install an aftermarket head then I get it. Some manufactures, like Mazda, now are extremely hostile towards the aftermarket. Mazdas new stereo systems in the 2016 and newer vehicles are complete garbage. I wont buy any car that I cant install an aftermarket radio in it. The problem with stock radios is their lack of features, weak output and inability ao add new features. Factory manufacturers take the "Apple route" of saying "sucks to be you, guess you have to buy a whole brand new car" if you want a new feature or sometimes if something fails.

[@jayallison3538]

Why not do a dual2 ohm sub to get a 1 ohm load of your doing a 5 channel amp

[@lakorai2]

Jay Allison Many 5 channel amplifiers are not 1 or .5 ohm stable. Usually if you want tot do that you would want a 4 channel and a high powered monoblock that is 1 ohm stable.

[@deeeezel]

I tried a type r subwoofer once fed her 1500 wattsa and she tapped out

[@mikeunivers]

Dean is losing some weight, looks thinner
