Father & Son Car Audio Install - GMC Yukon - Mids/Tweets + Amp Rack Wired Up & Fired up! Video #5

See all the pics/progress here: www.stevemeadedesigns.com/boar...
Rockford Fosgate/SMD Products etc available here: www.wcCarAudio.com
Finally got the door speakers installed and also the amp rack wired up and fired up! It sounds great! No plans to put speakers in the rear doors because FRONT stage always sounds best. The people in the rear should be able to hear the front speakers just fine. Although we might add more later! The rear door grills will end up with black speaker grill cover to match the front soon.
Equipment so far:
(1) Sony CD / Bluetooth H.U.
(1) Rockford Fosgate P1000.1 (on Lows)
(1) Rockford Fosgate P300.2 (on Highs)
(2) Rockford Fosgate P3 12" Subwoofers
(1) Set Rockford Fosgate Power T2652-s
more possibly? subject to change of course!

Sick ass system, usually on video music doesn't sound clear but all your builds sound super clear. Bravo to doing this build with your son, this is what father's need to be doing teaching and spending time with their kids. Hats off to you Steve.

[@kalebcarter3477]

I love the fact that he could have a crazy wild system but he's going for a more simple install being it's probably his first truck. I'm not sure if this is the case but I always respect when a younger guy gets a simple system first because it means most of the time HE worked for it, not just given to him, mad respect for that Steve

[@meade916]

GUYS: FYI: The new Psyph Morrison album is now available and the first 500 hard copies will all have a number on the inside cover. When we get to 500 i am giving away a Rockford Fosgate 500 watt amp! so get some banging ass tunes and a built in raffle ticket - video coming soon - link here www.wccaraudio.com/more/music/psyph-morrison/psyph-morrison-s-o-t-l-son-of-the-light-compact-disc.html 

[@mrsmichaelfreburg]

Amazing! I love seeing a father teaching his son how to do things the right way. No corner cutting, no skimping. That will transfer to everyday life. You are raising a responsible young man that will be an example to follow by all his peers:)

[@FirestarterAJ12]

Because you aren't demonstrating your extreme bass your mics can handle it a lot better and for the first time we can really appreciate how good your systems actually sound! And my does it sound real clean! Excellent job

[@deedeloney]

Anthony, congratulations on your build! It's been fun watching the videos you and your pops post. Hopefully you do more so we can enjoy the hobby with you. Also Steve thanks for sharing your talents with KZbin.

[@alivegas935]

It's always good to see father and son projects. Expecially when it's a smd project... it really looks good man

[@jreamsnyder]

Steve, great video once again. Thanks for sharing, your videos always inspire me to take that extra step on projects to make everything just right, whether it be car audio or anything else. I recently rescued some of my pop's old Cerwin Vega cabinet speakers. His reaction when he saw how soldered and heat shrunk all connections plus a bunch of other stuff you would never see was priceless. The truly impressive projects are the ones where things are pretty where no one would ever look, but if they did... WOW. You're the boss, keep it up!!!

[@GeezerAppeaser]

Saw/heard this truck driving past my house the other day. Sounds good!

[@Flashpoint922]

Those components sound SUPER CLEAN! Nice work as usual

[@overtron9969]

Very cool idea about the mercury switch, didnt think of using them for light triggers. Thanks for the install tip Steve, I always learn alot from your videos, you take simple and basic to the new level.

[@g1ng3r3131]

Love the fact your sharing your passion for all things audio with you son, top man!

[@marioplaya1991]

It's cool as hell how you try and respond to everyone!! Not many do that.

[@DjKamikazee]

That is a clean set up man. I know the feeling of putting a system in your son's car because I put a system in my son's first car. Made me feel like a proud poppa when he drove off.

[@Dmack434]

Nice installation but more importantly the time and knowledge shared with your son. I love this kind of stuff and wish there were more vids like this! Keep doing what you do! This alone made me a big fan and new subscriber!

[@NorwegianBasterd]

After all these years you still keep it going strong man! watched you for years! :D love ur videos man! so clean so nice :D

[@DylanK811]

Really great work man. I love the humble attitude even though the build still far exceeds what most folks can or are willing to do.

[@meade916]

thanks Dylan!

[@mdrawdy1]

LOL just a "slight" upgrade. Glad to see you passing on knowledge to your son

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

The most important install of all! Looked sick!

[@funboyDUBZ]

'Outta my zone' sounds awesome! Great track, great build!!

[@itskarisma6994]

love how this system came out so clean.

[@flackomedia8935]

i enjoy it cx i miss my old system v.v running 2x 15s in 3.2k watts seeing how u guys took the time to make it look nice came out like a DIME cant wait to do a other system in the future, LOVE the Dad and son series.

[@Jayhawks1]

Awesome job Steve very clean work props to you and your boy

[@wadeyoung1190]

HELL ya man you went from knocking out girls eye to one HELL OF A DAD keep it going and looks like you have the America dream

[@compthisflipthat]

Ah yea i was waiting for the led's. Looks clean Steve!

[@zodiack101]

Would love to do a fosgate power set up in my 87 GTA Trans Am. But i just cant seem to bring myself to rip out the original Delco equipment since the car is still all original. Love your installs btw. You do awesome work.

[@TheNewyorican89]

Wow that Mercury switch is damn good tip, would've never thought to apply that somewhere else than under the hood

[@lars457]

You're always an inspiration for me, keep up the awesome work! Greeting from Holland

[@602trouble10]

proud papi moment, thats whats up. keep up the good work the both of ya

[@TheWicked310]

I wish I could do a build with my dad...but he ain't into systems anymore:/ that's a sick ass clean install. If I had the money and resources I'd send my truck to you!

[@rahcrosby6002]

Thanks 4 the videos Steve. I got a 04 Yukon & y'all givin me good ideas on what mine could look like & sound like. Preciate the inspiration. Is it better/cheaper 2 do the work yourself as long as u know what ur doing? U & guys like u r what made me like the body style of tahoes n yukons more than I already did.

[@blufey2925]

Wow. meade916 is an artist. Sure he's got a shop full of tools and I'm sure companies like Rockford Fosgate give him all the equipment he asks for but he just really really is an artist. Superb work. Superb fabrication. Thumbs up and subscribe.

[@TeamJesus515]

The kids got skills. Clean install.

[@scrapironfish]

Nothing like the first system in your car. Nice work guys. I remember my first system in the early 90's. All Alpine Gear. Alpine was the shit back then. Remember "Pyle Drivers" Lol, Those were the worst speakers back then.

[@hunterholt8035]

such a clean install, much respect

[@rashad5286]

Good shit man! sounds crispy as hell.

[@davidbarkley121]

steve....THA KING OF AUDIO!!

[@but199018]

Best audio installers hands down!

[@doughboii559]

Build is gettin better n better hope one day we can meet up n ull hear some builds ive done

[@MrTimdtoolman1]

Super tight Bro, I know your son must be beaming with pride as well as Daddy. Nice work. Like I always say......if your going to do it, do it right.

[@meade916]

thanks Tim!

[@rickerd83]

I like this install. Just the basics that most of us run in the car. Just to show that you don't have to have 30k watts in your car to enjoy it.

[@Reigada17]

very nice! makes me wish i had a father growing up to do shit like this with

[@mafew32]

That sounds really good!

[@focused313]

This is the step by step people beg for on youtube. The only thing he didn't do was actually cut the wood for you. Great series of vids. You should start a school, maybe small votech stuff.

[@4dangler]

You guys do some good work. Wish I could have you build me a system.

[@Stoneyman101]

Amazing work!

[@amanteapasionado6836]

That sounded real good

[@Themayseffect]

That car looks dangerously gangster! Love the build, but i hope your kids don't ride around in bad neighborhoods in that whip! Awesome job though. I can see this build going further and further!

[@jpsaudio08]

again loving these updates. quick question where did you get the lil green mold stick that was use to get the curves for the box? that can get extremely useful for building panels

[@zp1944]

Such quality work, im jealous i dont have the guidance or the money to do such a nice looking/sounding build

[@DawidEs1]

I was saw excited when i saw that u uploaded this video (idk why :D ). Great job, i think that all the videos of this project will help me, when i will be building my system ;) I hope my English is enough good to understand me ;D

[@kodee8aj]

Wish my dad was lik u is why I can't wait to my sons get older so I can help them hook up sounds in there vehicle

[@CABRONZZ777]

where did you buy the little Rockford fosgate emblems I need them for my build

[@ikaikakamai4195]

Got me motivated / bitting some of your ideas on my yukon. digging the father son vids. Steve @ 4:10 what are those thing?

[@evagoras92]

wish you could tune my system steve! should i put that foam pods in my fiberglass speaker pods?awesome job by the way !!

[@carlosalmanza7709]

Sick install

[@MSTR-DTH23]

Are those speaker pods bigger that normal. Also did you make a hole in them. I've heard when using speaker baffles you have to make a quarter size hole on the back. I'm building my Tahoe based on these videos, just on a budget. I've done the big 3 and im about to do my amp rack. It won't be as nice but It will get the job done. Thanks so much for doing this complete overview in great detail.

[@but199018]

Where can I find that black screen mesh you guys covered the speaker grills with?

[@warrenwilder9806]

RESPECT to you! Long time viewer.. (2009)?? Keep posting vids Q

[@meade916]

thanks Warren bro! Respect back. Thanks for watching!

[@rocketgizer]

I'm trying to find a harness to bypass the amp in my Dodge Charger. 2013 with Alpine speakers . Would like to plug into the factory head unit's speaker output then into a DSP . Searched Metra but came up empty.

[@cfcman1975]

Amazing work Steve as per normal, I have a question tho, where did you get the foam pods from?

[@rm4213]

hey steve quick question i see you have the 4 channel and sub amp together in that box. when wiring the door speakers did you ever cross the power wires for the amp?

[@9806180]

Hey Steve, great work! Coming along nice and clean like always. Question, where do you get those foam pods for the door speakers?

[@Jeremy-ws7wg]

Hey Steve what was the piece that you put behind the 6.5 in the door? I have an 01 Silverado and I'm having issues getting good sound quality from my doors.

[@AlexMaturin]

Just got some tweeters for my 02 Sierra ext cab and been trying to decide on placement. What's better, on pillars facing windshield or in factory location? Hope you respond since I'm doing this like this coming week! Thanks!

[@th3unn3rv3d3]

Can't the boy rolling with busted gear. Looking good.

[@1skeeta4u]

Would luv to see the wiring process also?? Great video

[@MrJose123704]

Absolutely beast!

[@esanchez021]

Awesome man!

[@RoyaleWitCheese04]

Amazing. Wish there was a shop in my area that uses the fine detail you do Steve. Killing the competition!!! Oh btw Big K.R.I.T album just came out too. You should play some of it

[@meade916]

thanks man! no idea who that guy is but i'm sure if you like it it is probably good. I heard the name before a few times though. Never heard one single song in my life by him though.

[@spencediggz1]

meade916 I think BIG Krit is under the same label as Rittz. You'll catch him on his album.

[@splattaman81]

meade916 you should go pick up cadillactica its big krits new joint...his songs pound pretty good

[@matthewlentz8498]

meade916 Def some good Slappers Steve. Dude makes all his own beats. Hes not on the same label as Rittz. Rittz is signed to strange now. Cadilactica is cool but his older stuff is better, as far as beats go.

[@vinceeischen6559]

Stupid question. Where can you get that foam stuff you put in right before the mid bass in the door. Great build :)

[@ricocrockett370]

Very clean install. Minus the equipment, how much would you charge for an install like that?

[@bossmacnick]

Love this system...

[@nwbasshead]

Bad ass Steve!

[@JulianS-ye3vm]

I've noticed this isn't the first time you've not upgraded rear speakers. What does that do?

[@411erin]

Nice install. Where do you get the foam pods from for door speakers? Thanks

[@eliasibguzman5987]

hey steve do those p3s get pretty low bass cus this coming weekend i plan on gettin me a pair

[@danv2888]

Noticed you used the "Foam pods." What do you think of the Fast Rings. Is the "Foam pod" better.

[@kacpersurowiak677]

Hey Steve, what is the thing that you put behind mid range speaker?

[@mytempaccount7682]

Awesome entry system. What songs are in the demo at the end of the video?

[@ridenlazy]

Hey, where could I get a set of those door inserts for the 6.5s?

[@TerryHesticles280]

Where do you normally run your grounds? I'm going to put a system in my 2003 Dodge Neon

[@adamdesjarlais8183]

Whats the name of the black fabric material you put over the speaker covers

[@joshuaqueen8923]

I know that someone might already have asked you but what did you do for the factory sub

[@DracolegacyOfficial]

so is it just a matter of time before we see SMD branded amps?

[@jeffstwart105]

I have another stupid question that I don't understand. your running that p300x2 on mids and highs, I don't know how that works. are you running left side mids and highs on one channel and the right side on the other channel? or both tweeters on one channel and mids on the other. maybe running them in series? can you or anyone help me understand .

[@ATLRaines]

whats the measuring ment of that amp box? And the size of those fans

[@hataz_]

I know this may be a dumb question, but is there a wiring diagram for this setup. Thanks!

[@rebbewful]

I'm new here so I hope this isn't a dumb question but do you do audio installs in your shop for other or is it just for yourself mainly?

[@pacotacos1234]

Shit i would kill to have had some of those connects setting up my jeep a few years ago, very nice set up though

[@gummy237]

Nice system man. Btw does anyone know how to stop a sunroof from ratteling? its pretty annoying.

[@NumptyGarage]

another great build

[@meade916]

thanks angryLemon!

[@NumptyGarage]

meade916 No problem! :)

[@LilLunatic903]

What kind of LEDs are those in the amp rack?

[@juniormares5794]

@meade916 were you get those little Rockford Fosgate Logos ?

[@cerritos2cleveland]

Where can I get the foam cups for the door speakers?

[@chrisd.9134]

You should make something to cover the wires. But other then that it's coming along nice man. Like how everything sounds to bad it's on KZbin and not in person. But keep them coming.

[@willymarte4993]

Nice world Man, I like all your video. I have an Acura TL 2004 and want to put a system like this. How much would it cost me?

[@TianRmz097]

How much does it cost to get a new system? Like what you guys are doing.

[@lsgt5132]

I know this is old but my favorite install. Nothing can buy that there.

[@blazintracks2060]

why didn't you get a 4channel and hook up the rear speakers?
