Part 1A conversation about Morel speakers and amplifiers, plus we are testing a new camera

sorry about the issues

[@R34Sumo]

I have run Morel tempo components and and Morel Ultimo 12" sub in my R34 skyline for probably 5 or more years now. Personally i haven't come across anything that sounds as good around the same price point. They are a great SQ based company who certainly know what they are doing.

[@kcmullins6179]

I been thinking about picking some of their 6.5"s up and other door speakers n tweeters. For my VW CC TSI Turbo sport to go with my Sundown SA V3 8"s I got two of em running atm but I'mma add a third one lol. I love y'alls channel keep up the good work

[@danielantoniuk559]

I think there is some value it what you say about speaker construction and voice coil design. However, you are mis-informed about speed. For example, the 91db rating you mentioned as slow is actually the sensitivity rating of the speaker. All speakers are rated using a method of measuring the Db output at a distance of 1 meter with 1 watt input. This is to provide a sensitivty rating which can be helpful in system design. For example, a speaker with a 91db rating is generally considered a very efficient speaker that can be more responsive with less power so this particular speaker would work well with either a factory head unit and still sound pretty good. While on the other hand a speaker with a rating of 87db would really require an external amplifier to sound good. It is not uncommon to see speakers of lower sensitivity ratings on the higher end products since most units in the upper price point are assuming the use of an exteranal amplifier and they will sound nice with the cleaner more powerful wattage applied. Obviously you can still use a external amplifier on speaker if the speaker has a higher sensitivity rating (such as 91db) as well. It would be more accurate to say that a speaker rated at 91db is more efficient and versital because it can be driven by both lower power sources as well as higher power sourced (external amplifier, more wattage). It is not faster, or slower. So the conclusion should be don't use the higher end speakers without an external amplifier as the speakers generally are not as effecient and require more power to drive them. Of course they sound better too but do require more power to acheive that result.

[@calebniederhofer6529]

I have always been a big fan of Morel. I was highly impressed either the the entry level Maximo components. I currently run the Tempo ultra. One thing I will recommend is give them a quality amp. Don’t cheap out on amps and power. You can get a quality 4 channel for 350 in todays marked.

[@badlilstang]

I have ran Morel Tempo sets, Elate sets, Elate Carbon pro currently and have been impressed with them all.. I have not ran the super low end sets. The Tempo was an amazing sounding coax when I used it. For me Tempo on up is worth owning. I would not call them a Slow driver with larger voice coils. That voice coil can handle tons of power and provide tons of control.

[@CaseAgainstFaith1]

I have Morel Carbon Elates for my left and right. I'm planning on adding a center channel and plan to use a Morel Hybrid Integra coax. Oh, and great job with not bothering to re-record where you hit technical issues. Fail.

[@randyharrington3902]

What is a good amp for mids and highs. Thanks, you guys are amazing and fun to watch, also extremely informative. Love yall

[@38alloy]

Pleaseeeee do a video of the Morel 5.95 install , that amp looks awesome.

[@smetanavichlamanov8103]

I really like & enjoy the end part 😟😁😂

[@qball2000able]

Do you still need a dsp for the 5 channels? If yes, what would you recommend? Thanks a million!

[@jaydawg116]

In my personal experience, Tempos are my least exciting line in my store- personally I think the maximos are more expressive with better sensitivity. As well, for the pricepoint you can grab Audiofrog GS series or Focal Access in the same ballpark, both of which are in my board next to it and sell higher volume. Just my personal opinion, don't flame me please.

[@badlilstang]

Morel needs to release a higher end amplifier. I love Morel speakers but the amps look cheap and the power output is fairy low for a company that is known for buliding speakers that take massive power. The 5ch amp is as large as the Mosconi Pro 5/30 but the Mosconi makes more power other than the smaller higher A biased channels. They need a Supremo line of amplifiers.. something nicer like the higher end Mosconi, Helix, Brax, Sinfoni etc.. This amp feels more like a Tempo line up.

[@derrick0076]

What are your thoughts on morel maximo ultra 602 coax compared to the jl audio c1-650 im trying to decide between the two .

[@Adrian-Insta]

Question, would virtus 602 componets in front, then tempo ultra integra 602 ( 2 pairs), a rockford fosgate pbr400x4d, and an alpine ilx-w650e sound averagre, awesome or bloody awesome in a 14 seater minibus?, Thanks.

[@michaelturner2691]

So is the morel 5 channel amp any better than the pioneer 5 channel. I bought the pioneer based on your vid an have been loving it!!

[@michaelsuchan8934]

I’d imagine so, being an AB for the highs and mids enhances the performance that much more, plus a class D for the sub, nothing wrong with that pioneer especially for the price point

[@jesusvalbuena2058]

between morel maximo 602 vs audison apk 165p in terms of SQ which one should i pick?

[@brandoyo9689]

I miss Zed Audio... The Leviathan was a Beast!

Bummer, I wanted to see the rest of this. I'm interested in the 3 way system

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Watch part 2

[@davidmcginnis2998]

Is the 4 ch bridgeable?

[@asifsalamka]

Hi sir. what is the best component speakers. Give me a advice please

[@jantonio8611]

Hello, nice video! Currently I have Focal Access speakers in my car and I would like to know, based in your listening experience, if it would be a difference in sound quality vs Morel Maximo Ultra series? I'm looking for sound quality vs noisy sound. Thanks a lot!

[@Andrew_kiwi_AF]

Yes! The Maximo ultras will sound better then the access. Morel stay smooth over different volume ranges and simply stay the same quality but just get louder unlike other brands where tweeters become very scretchy

[@lagunacorona]

It seems like the set of coaxials that I can't decide on now is morels, audiofrogs or Hertz!!! Can't make up my mind I do like reliability

[@RyKoMedia]

Morels win for out of box installation with little to no tuning. AF is great, but tuning is an absolute must. Hertz is ok, but for me they are better for SPL setups.

[@donearl6675]

👍👍

[@GP-fc7jv]

Would the 4” fit my Subaru BRZ 2013 dash

[@Byu50]

I don’t need a booooooooooom booooooooooooooooooom I just needed a clean sound and a deep and tight bass. What amp is good for focal ps 165 f3e components. Thanks

[@rpnorthriver]

You guys are the best! Please help, I have 2 pair of the Morel Virtus 602 components (front and rear) powered by an Audio Control D-4.800 so I have plenty of power. The vocals and highs sound great, but I have no bass presence from the Morels. I used tons of sound deadening, foam "gasketing", foam rings and foam behind the speaker, etc. My JL sub saves the day, but again I should have some bass presence from the Morels. I have the factory Sony amp (Ford F250) feeding the Audio control so I wonder if I might have a factory amp polarity issue or roll off although I can't see it in the DSP. I know the speakers are wired correctly polarity wise as I ran all new wiring (that was fun :-)) and trtiple checked every connection. Would a PAC AmpPRO help in this regard? Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope. Any insight would be huge.

[@DirtySouthFlorida3]

Ever find the problem? Defnitly check your in phase after that set your crossover beetween 50hz 63hz or 80hz 24db slope for more impact

[@Bobcatspiritdude]

I think it's an issue with the factory Sony amp. Its probably setup for the Stock speakers which Used to be in there . I bet a quality aftermarket amp would fix that issue! Best of luck .💪😎👍

[@RobHTech]

Just saw this vid. ---What do you mean that the Morels are "Slow?" large voice coil, copper I believe, single layer? move slow as in they will not be good for stuff like Techno, or slow moving like rich bass?? or what?

[@bbfoto7248]

+Five Star Car Stereo Dean, there is absolutely nothing "SLOW" about Morel's speakers, haha! That is a myth. There is no such thing as a Slow or Fast speaker or subwoofer. It's technically impossible. Think about it. If a speaker was "slower" than another speaker, the music would become increasingly more & more "out of sync" with the other speakers in your system (your "fast" tweeters for instance), like a bad lip sync. That Does Not happen. People need to stop referring to speakers as being "fast" or "slow". And the area you are referring to under the speaker cone is the Voice Coil "Former" and the "Spider". The voice coil Former is the very thin Round Tube that the Voice Coil Wire is wound onto. The "Former" can be made of all types of materials...paper (like a toilet paper core), aluminum, Kapton, fiberglass, etc. The Flat but Corrugated yellow/brown fabric underneath the speaker cone is called the "Spider". It is connected to the outer perimeter of the speaker or subwoofer basket and to the Voice Coil Former. The Spider helps to keep the Voice Coil perfectly centered in the narrow circular magnetic gap while the speaker cone moves forward & backward, so that the voice coil floats in free air with no friction and without touching the edges of the magnet. The Spider is typically made out of a woven fabric called "Nomex". The speaker's "Surround" is the top rubber, foam, or woven fabric ring that is attached to the top perimeter of the speaker cone and to the outer edge of the speaker basket's mounting flange. The Surround also keeps the Cone and Voice Coil Centered in the magnetic gap while the cone moves forward & backward. The type & design of the Surround and the Spider BOTH help to determine the maximum physical or mechanical excursion limits of the cone (xmech). The speaker will be damaged if it is powered beyond those physical limits. The combination of the Spider and the Surround are typically referred to as the speaker's "Suspension". The Suspension may be stiff, or it may be light or soft, depending on what type of enclosure the speaker is designed for.

Mythopobists are welcomed, so to say

[@ICON-11-]

I have a question, how would I know fitment for a 2020 toyota tacoma and what would be the best model from morel to put in? I want everything to fit factory without any modifications done

[@jet613]

Honestly all of the videos I see online for car speakers reviews are never scientific. I wish they had a mocked up door and test vehicle with microphones meant to test frequency response. Now I have to dig through videos where they equate big magnets and voice coils as good and small voice coils and magnets as bad. Or they glance over rms wattage and thinks it's good because of Peak wattage. Or if it costs more it's just good.

[@JerChong]

Hi! Morel maximus 602 v2 and maximo ultra 602 which one would u recommend?

[@missaelcampos4939]

I’d go ultra

[@winstonmars702]

Maximus for sure

[@Andrew_kiwi_AF]

The Maximus has a crazy high sensitivity therefore the Maximus can be 3 times as loud on the same power. Both sets sound amazing

[@shawnkarvonen]

I'm assuming the moral amps do not have the light for setting your gains

[@luisacevedo324]

Dammit Dean Paul should have paid his electric bill instead of buying those moral amps LOL

[@jasonscalzo9597]

Why are you guys on it’s Wednesday?

[@JayO1963]

That five channel, is it only good for a standard sound system correct? 1 sub and speakers. Is this true or false, five channel amps generally are no good when you want to go BooMBooM hard bass and clean mids sound?

[@bbfoto7248]

+JayO1963 Completely false. With the right subwoofer(s) a 5-channel amp with 550+ Watts @ 2-ohms is totally adequate, for instance, with Two 15" high-efficiency subwoofers that are run Infinite Baffle (IB) in the trunk firing through the trunk/back seat divider wall, using the airspace in the large truck as the quasi-enclosure. And you can use Two of the 5-channel Amplifiers to create a very powerful system. For example, use one amp for ALL of the LEFT Channel speakers, and another amplifier for ALL of the RIGHT Channel speakers. On Each amplifier, you could Bridge channels 1&2 and 3&4 to send more power to your front component speakers, and use the 5th Mono Subwoofer Channel on each amplifier to individually power Each of the 2-Ohm Voice Coils on a Dual Voice Coil Subwoofer (DVC) for a total of 1100 watts (with this particular Morel 5-channel amp). Sure, for high power/low efficiency subwoofers, you would probably be better off using a 1,000+ Watt Mono Subwoofer Amplifier. It all comes down to exactly what Subwoofer(s) you choose, and what "alignment" you use them in (Sealed, Ported/Vented/Aperiodic Membrane (AP), or Infinite baffle (IB), etc.

[@leecarter2768]

As a younger man in the 90's, 500+watts would pound the street. Not all subs need 1000 watts to hit hard. If you trying to flex your car apart then no.

[@trudeaumustgo1920]

I think the sub channels are too weak of you ever feel like upgrading subs

[@diawaprolite7967]

Morel very high end gear

[@groundcontrol6876]

My precision power monoblock class D amp does 1000 watts and it was only 158 bucks 5 years ago. The Morel does basically half of the output and I'm sure it doesn't sound twice as good. The difference in sound is probably imperceptible if they're matched at the same output.

[@pperezilabaca]

Does Morel Tempo Ultra will fit on 2013 Hyundai Veloster?

[@MickeyMishra]

"SHUT IT DOWN"? SHUT IT DOWN!

[@astravfr]

hello from Portugal

[@TheFiendRacer]

650$ for the 5 channel morel

[@dhonzik]

Dean broke the camera

[@RobHTech]

No one? Hello? Is there anybody in there? What do you mean that the Morels are "Slow?" large voice coil, copper I believe, single layer? move slow as in they will not be good for stuff like Techno, or slow moving like rich bass?? or what? And, I didn't know that D amps "Break apart" at 2 Ohms. I thought they break apart at any Ohm really, which is why I use AB, except maybe for a sub of course.

[@badrealamhakeem2083]

moral 70 watt rms amplifier can run 75watt rms component

[@Dave97456]

MSRP of about 590....

[@Dave97456]

Euros, that is....

[@jadamlsu]

JL 650 vs morel 602. I asked for JL they put in motel said it was a better speaker anyway. Truth??????

[@ignaciolopez5501]

Disculpa que precio tiene las morel speakers 6.5 diámetro elite??? Grasias

[@ignaciolopez5501]

Componente

[@badlilstang]

Some class D break apart at 2ohm? ... What?

[@RyKoMedia]

A slow speaker? lol, ive been an installer, on forums, and all types of car audio groups for over 2 decades and you are the only person to ever say "Morel are slow musical speakers" or have heard anyone mention that ppl do not know where Morel speakers are from.

[@carlhess512]

You need to learn what the number for the sensitivity means. The spl of 91 means how efficient the speaker is for one word of power not how slow it is I don’t know where you learned your terminology but you need to go back to school and learn that the speaker is not slow nor fast it produces soundwaves sound waves have a designated speed you cannot change them to lower the frequency to the higher frequencies determines how many waves per meter or per octave or however you want to say it is means how many waves are in wavelength one hurts has one weight 20 Hz has 20 waves 20,000 has 20,000 waves

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Apparently the same place you learned grammar

[@lewthern]

Longest run on sentence I’ve seen in a while. Love when smart asses comment and don’t proofread their comments before posting it, LOL

[@Lochmodor]

Slow? If i walk into a shop and one of the salesmen starts describing stuff like that, ill probably leave. And by the way, 1.5" like the Tempo uses are a pretty average coil for a 5.25" to 6.5" speaker, a 2.1" coil like the Virtous uses are pretty big, but "ginourmous"?? Please save that superlative for their 3" coiled brethren. I dont own anything from Morel Israel. But i run a 3 way system up front consisting of 28mm tweets, 5.25" mids (3" coil) and dual 6.5" woofers (3" coil) per side, all Macrom branded gear made in Morel`s old factory in the UK .

[@Chukijay]

Maybe you should start your own audio shop and post it on KZbin

[@wyldeyouth]

Slow? Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. There is no such thing as slow when it comes to speakers.

[@valecasillas5729]

The tweet is made in Israel the tempo ultra only the mid is made in China
