Yeah you don't wanna use that fuse since it has power all the time unless you like jumping the battery. The remote wire goes to a fuse that is only live when the key is in run or accessory.

I’ve already installed everything except the preamp , it’s supposed to arrive today , so I figured I’d be ready when it gets here , I didn’t think to use the side pocket I keep my emergency fishing lures in for my amp , but certain it’s to small for my amp , and I didn’t want it exposed at all , so I used the cargo storage tub under the carpet to mount my amp, however it is sealed and had concerns of over heating, I cut out a small circle on the driver’s side edge and mounted a 80mm 12v fan out of a computer , it sits perfectly and looks super clean in the corner, there is also a decent air channel that runs the edge of the tub to draw air from , it blows directly onto the amp , there is a slight drop off where the amp is mounted , which I appreciate, I utilized the drop off to put a small piece of foam under both low side screws for a nice air gap under the amp while leveling it in the process, I will drill a couple 3 inch holes in the lid of the cargo box and put a piece of screen over the holes and lay my carpet back down , it should exhaust threw the carpet , amp should stay moderately cool , Just a idea for anyone who may not want amp exposed , also if you like to show your stuff off , the lid could easily be exchange for a piece of plexiglass , and u can either cut out the carpet to expose the plexiglass or remove the carpet so you can cover it when needed ,

You saved me almost $200. I love the sound quality of the factory radio, and I didn’t want to part ways with Sync. So I did this method and it worked perfectly! I had to turn the bass all the way down on the stereo, because at higher volume the factory speakers would distort when hard bass kicked in. So now it’s balanced perfectly with the subwoofer.

I know you said white with a brown strip is front left negative, but doesn't the factory diagram say it's white with a black stripe. There is a brown with a yellow that was throwing me off that is rear left negative, so I had to find the factory schematics. Edit: also the black gray cable is the ground. Is it possible to ground to just there with a t tap?

Nice one man!!! I completely agree with Leonel Ramirez. This helped a lot. One question thought, is the "Pac SNI-35 Line Out Converter" mandatory? What does it do? I have already set my amplifier and sub-woofer like you explained except in my case it is a 1000W system, but where I live you won't find a line out converter. Thank you and anyone out there for an explanation in advance.
@dragonmaster3915 жыл бұрын
a line out converter converts the high level outputs that would be going to a speaker into a low level signal that the amp can take in. If you have an aftermarket headunit then you'll have outputs for the amp on the unit. The line out converter is only needed if you dont have the proper low level inputs and have to hook into speaker wire to add the amp. Any proper setup does not use a line out converter.

Hey guys, we followed the video directions and did not have any success... Hoping you can help. We hooked up the sub & amp box to a different vehicle and it worked just fine. We are having two problems 1) The amp has power all the time, not just when the key is turned to the aux or engine start position. 2) The sub is not receiving a signal from the head unit (the music is cranked and the bass level is set to max) so when everything is connected the subwoofer does not engage. I’m 99% sure the problem is with the wire taps we installed (head unit to rca adapter) but wondering if you have any suggestions?? Thank you in advance!!!!!
@jupit3r6582 жыл бұрын
I’m not sure if you found your answer yet, but for the reason your amp is always on: after looking at what fuse they tapped into I found they tapped into the climate control which is, for some reason, always powered. As far as the head unit tap, I don’t know if you followed those exact colors he gave you but some cars have different colors for the speakers. I would check that.

Very cool. CLEAN. I'm really picky about cosmetics as I feel most are. (or should be, but to each their own) I'm kind of curious on that particular set up's improvement ? I like the fact that doesen't eat up a ton of cargo room (translating "usually" into eating less of one's finances) I was thinking of Alpine type "S" in the 4 factory door speaker locations. Maintaining the factory head unit (I know I could deal w/getting around Sync, the steering wheel etc. But it's a daily driver, I don't want a "Here I am" or " You"ll hear me 2 mins. Before I get there" system) A decent to vast improvement of the factory 4 speaker system is deffinately in order ! I'm open to suggestions & honestly somewhat torn between Polk D.b. or the Alpines ? Another thought other than what you did possibly was trying 1 of the many junk yards in my area/or Ebay; Acquiring the optional factory sub & mainly mounting pannell & possibly do some mild sound proofing/deadening & similar to this set up, install a single 8 inch sub w/appropriate power.(This is assuming I can "switch" the optional panel containing the fact. Sub. & replace with a budget friendly alternative into my Mariner which does NOT have it. I'll look into that shortly but don't expect that to be much more difficult than tracking down the proper pieces and mouldings to do so) I know especially in audio; You get what you pay for ! There's always sales, open boxes, etc. That when not needed asap, I've done pretty well with in the past. I think anything more than a single 8-10 will probably require more space than I'm willing to part with. Dual 12's are out, just trying to keep myself from from stripping the car down & refinancing my home, in an attempt to make rain drop's bounce, but I'd also like to maintain my sanity & add some much needed "umph" as my factory components are rather old & tired, as well as, is basic as was possible over a decade ago! Does a single 8 or 10 sub. Add all that much ? I'm not in the financial bracket for the $600 stealth box. & with the factory 6×8's, worth changing front & rear to 6.5's ? Go 5.25 ? A combo ? I'm open to any experienced opinions and or knowledge pertaining to upgrading the overall sound quality of the Escape/Mariner/Tribute that yourself or anyone else wishes to share ! Great video & T.y. beforehand for any & all thoughts!

@@ProvoBeastAudio Definitely, however I have access to an 2009 Mariner factory premium sound for cheap. And I also enjoy upgrading cars with original equipment options. (and I'm not that critical on the sound system - of course if it was a factory JBL, BOSE, Infinity, etc. that would be a no-brainer, but the Escape premium sound is not that great so I'm wondering if it's not worth the effort. My biggest thing I'd like to do is get all the factory wiring/harness/loom for the sound system too - not sure if the sub wires are already in my 2010 XLT)
