[@meade916]

If you follow my instagram channel you know this video is a couple of days behind. It takes time to get the work done and even more time to film and edit. Especially when i am mostly by myself. I don't like interrupting my employee's to hold the camera. They are busy! If you are interested in daily updates as well as lots of live streams from the shop, give me a follow! instagram.com/meade916 thanks for watching if you did!

This is so awesome to see! I remember the silver paint, pre air ride, small fender Bender days! When the air ride, battery cut out in the rear and fresh perreli 26’s got installed that Tahoe started to transform into a monster! What a dream to be able to be in this industry like Steve! Awesome creator!

[@meade916]

Thanks Darren bro. I appreciate you spending all those years with me!! For real! Email me at [e-mail] i want to send you a signed SMD hat. Your choice of color. thanks again! Cheers!

[@shaneo33t]

Man its 2022 and I still remember the civic build and this box being built like it was yesterday. Always love your work Mr SMD. Definitely have to do a recap of all your rides.

thanks Genaro!!

[@AboutaMileAdventures]

Man, I got nostalgic just watching those amps light up again, I still remember the videos of building the amp rack and smoke testing it to prove the haters wrong.

[@meade916]

:)

[@DJLILM09]

The truck that started it all is still alive

[@The_Bass_Stunters]

Best tools of the trade money can buy what I would give to be able to complete a build in this mans shop.

[@RyanKirk99]

I built many audio systems in the 90s and early 2000s. I miss those days. This channel brings me back. Cheers Steve.

[@vqjay7075]

Watching the 2009 build beginning to end like 5+ times has given me so much knowledge about car audio ❤️

[@YoungTGlo]

Bro I used your fuse holder in my car for 2 12 kicker comp r running a 3300 watt 1ohm mono block d hifonics amp I loved it and never had any issues with the fuse at all. Unfortunately Sacramento drivers aren’t the safest and my car was recently totaled luckily he didn’t destroy my subs or all hell would’ve broke loose but glad to see someone enjoy there setup

[@rolly4x4]

Just been through and watched all the original build videos. Great to see the evolution of this car, gets better each time. Awesome work Steve, cheers from Australia 👌🏻🇦🇺

[@ramgarza02]

Your attention to detail is out of this world. 👏🏼

[@chadrobbins8881]

Hands down Rockford in the past and currently has had some of the best looking amps for over 20 years

[@dreednlb]

Got my SMD DD-1 today and already found that my gains were indeed not setup properly but I'm squared away now. Thanks, Steve! It feels like a real quality product that will serve me well for many years.

[@danfort3376]

one of the cleanest and loudest caraudiobuilt..its awesome!!!

That SMD on the fuse box really sets it off looks awesome

Look at Brandito with the hair trick. Good to see this one coming back. Respect.

[@arthurhughlett2292]

If there’s ever a KZbinrs museum. It’s gotta have replicas of these!

[@ericaswofford4231]

Details my man. The belt routing badge just adds a little dazzle dazzle to an already killer build.

[@frankierzucekjr]

I'm a Rockford Fosgate fan so I really liked this one. I got a T1 15 3 amps for subs mids and highs. I felt like I was doing something until I got embarrassed by this video. Just badass. I need a power wire like those. I have a Chevy Colorado V8, 450hp. Ima have to step my game up. Just gutted the whole interior to dynomat and wire everything correctly. Can't wait to hear it thump again. Great work man.

[@Compa-Santana]

I want to see the Tahoe in person just to have the experience after so many years just watching it in youtube

[@SouthEastStanger]

Just a little chip on the fuse cover, lets customize it! Yeaaaaaaaaaa, love it man......

I remember watching the vids from the back yard when u were first building this beast what over ten years ago for sure I think 13 but not sure

[@cafrogg2016]

So many Milwaukee battery operated tools! The rivet gun is nice. I wonder if it does stainless rivets too. I had no idea that they made so many until your videos. Tahoe still looks clean to me.

The Tahoe lives to fight another day :) very nicely done Steve.

I was very big in to car audio in the late 80's and early 1990's. Things have sure changed. But, my hearing is still very bad from those days. I can't imagine working in a shop like this.

Top of the line and over the top as usual! Nicely done Steve! Now take that thing to an empty parking lot and give us an old fashioned beat down! Please!

[@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128]

@JBLaccord he's gonna have to take it to a gas station first before he goes anywhere. As low as his fuel gauge was he might even have to get out his jug & pour a gallon or two in it before even leaving the shop. (Vid was recorded several days ago so I know Meade's already took care of it)

Remember to charge your caps with a 1k resistor prior to fuse installation to minimize arcing and maximize cap life.
