Awesome install. Quick tip for anyone installing a new head unit, always get everything wired up and make sure the thing turns on before fastening things down and making it look pretty. It sucks when you spend extra time getting everything neat and organized to find that you missed a step and need to pull everything out again lol

Actually, with the tweeters in the lower position the distance from the drivers head to the two tweeters is closer to being the same. So, the sound arrives to your ears somewhat in phase. It IS better to have them up top if you're running an active system and can delay them to be in phase with DSP. But, they're running passive crossovers and aren't able to do that. So, my man in the video there knows exactly what he's doing. :-)

There is a major safety issue in this video. The fuse on the amplifier wire is not to protect the amplifier (as the amp had built in fuses for that). This fuse is to protect the wire in the case of a short to ground. You need that fuse because of how long that wire is. It increases the odds of a short to ground from happening. If the fuse is far away from the battery, you have a longer portion of hot wire that is unprotected. You want the fuse to be as close to the battery as possible, or even on the battery terminal itself if possible. The general rule of thumb is to place the fuse between 6 and 12 inches from the battery. This minimizes the section of the wire that is unprotected. That way you can have a short anywhere on the wire and the fuse will still pop and protect the wire. (Unless the short is before the fuse in which case your effed (Hence why the fuse should be close to the battery)) The other issue is your wiring of the head unit. Ideally, you'd want to use a wiring harness adapter for that. They are cheap, and much simpler to use. They also remove any guesswork from that wiring. But I do not know the full story of this car, so I can forgive this if it was removed prior to you owning the car. Other than the major safety issue, the video was great. There were a lot of best practices that were followed to a "T" and your use of color coding and wire organization was great! I really think you should amend the video to correct the mistake you made, so that others do not make it as well. I have seen car fires happen because of a short to ground on an Amp wire. Hell, my own truck almost caught on fire due to this issue when the previous owner made the same mistake as you. (A rat chewed threw the wire, and me replacing it made me realize the issue)

Also a quick tip that is “illegal.” To bypass the parking break wire just put it to the ground. I haven’t finished the vid yet but I noticed y’all didn’t do anything with the green parking break wire. You will lose a lot of functionality without that properly installed or bypassed. Also never put the fuses inside the car. Always want them no more than 18 inches away from the battery unless the battery is in the trunk but still only 18 inches away. Other than that great bud bro.

7:21 Not all copper wire is the same. You have access to CCA or OFC which do make massive differences Multistrand vs single core too 7:55 Heatshrink isn't for holding wires in place either, it's for insulating, primarily as well as making the install look more appealing 26:00 you need to fuse closer to the battery, the idea is, if the fuse pops it protects everything after it. Say a wire shorts in all that distance before the fuse, it'll cause an issue. However, if there's only 6cm before the fuse, the chances of any damage happening before that is minimal Perhaps i'm just being pedantic, but should a "noob" reference these minor "issues" it won't be as good of an install as it could be!

I remember the old Sony car stereo just being poo, but I've been really impressed by a lot of their new stuff and I wish I could hear through youtube what yours are like. It seems as though for as much care as was taken to wire this up, you'd have shielded the wires in the doors that are resting against sharp metal edges. He soldered the connections to the speakers in the doors, but used an all-weather connector on the sub and didn't solder it. Also, one of the benefits of components is being able to get the listening angle of your highs closer to ear level and yours are put on the same level as the mid-bass, which doesn't really buy you as much benefit over a coaxial speaker placed in the same location. Do these ES amps have DSP built in? This is the first video I've watched on your channel, and I'm not a die-hard Subie guy, but I really dig the car!

You cancel the benefit of a component set with mounting the tweeter same place with the woofer you should mount the tweeter as close to the ear level as possible. If you don't have any place to mount the tweeter than you should use coaxials instead. But clean install overall and beautiful car.

Those specs are all over the place. Mono amp is 300W RMS but the sub is 500W RMS, and the main 4 channel amp is 70 watts RMS per channel while speakers are 90 each. Also you'll need to level down the gain on 4 channel amp to match db of mids with sub. And I'm not even speaking about how you've installed those tweeters on the lower side of front doors, pretty much making them useless.

So awesome seeing that tastefully modified K1500, I have a green 98 Silverado 4x4 that is almost identical, even for sound system specs and I've loved it everyday since high school. The rust is starting to show and I'd love to do a full resto. But man did you bring back memories talking about slamming those subs for my friends in the backseat all through high school and college, great times!

Small tip: butyl rubber around the contact point of the speaker and metal makes a huge difference. Have a 96 L coupe needing some minor TLC, looking to one day do what you have going here.

The only things I noticed that would be good to do would be rubber grommets where wires traveled through raw metal openings. Foam liners on the baskets of the speakers that were installed in the doors. Fuses installed closer to the battery instead of near the amp. That’s a long unprotected run that’s a higher fire hazard done close to the amp like that. A port somewhere in the rear deck to allow the subs sound to be more full sounding in the cab. Lastly, mounting the tweeters higher up on the door pointed in the listening direction. They won’t play to potential pointed at your feet.

Wires + bare metal = electrical shorts over time. Also, unwrapped wires will always make noise unless they are cinched down EVERYWHERE. All the metal to metal contact on the larger speakers could have been avoided by using some dynamat around the speaker holes before install. It is most certainly worth taking the panels off and reinstalling the larger speakers and getting some wrap or tape on any place the wires pass through a hole that isn't grommeted.
