Attitude Toy Hauler Speaker Upgrade to Rockford Fosgate Ep 56

[@jordangenson3037]

Sounds good! Put Rockford Fosgate speakers in my boat, great sound. Next is for the RV

[@georgeferrer23]

I went with the polk audio db 6.5 speakers. They have a higher Rms rating and higher sensitivity then the Rockford fosgate. You could clearly see the frequency response for yourself. They sound like a 6.5 inch bookshelf speakers on steroids.

[@JoseMedina-yg8in]

Thanks for a great video with all the information you gave. I will be adding a Kicker amp and some Skar Audio SK65MB, 6.5 full range marine speakers. ✌🏼

[@stevenjk1976]

Enjoy all your videos. Good editing and song selections.

[@GLifeUTV]

I hope so..Thanks you🙏 🍻

[@nhunter1370]

Hey. I love the video!! I have it saved to reference for when I get everything. The link you shared for the amp you used doesn't exist anymore on Amazon. Do you know the model number of the Rockford amp you used so I can search for it? I thought I had the amp saved in my Amazon cart but it isn't there anymore. Help. Please and Thanks in advance.

[@felipealvarez5886]

Nice setup! Link for amp used is not working. What model amp is that fosgate?

[@jorgeenamorado4782]

Great job!. Question. Where does your "Zone C" on your radio go to?

[@kael437]

Did you have to run separate sets of rca cables for the inside and outside speakers?

[@barrystephens900]

Wow I’m impressed, I’m sure it’s a lot better in person

[@GLifeUTV]

Videoa never do justice. 100x better then the stock stuff.. thanks for watching👍🍻

[@lunchie80]

The tiny airspace behind the speakers will always massively limit bottom end. In some cases, adding a bit more air volume behind can do wonders(remove a bit of foam, or make small enclosures for the back if the holes back onto cupboards or similar)

[@GLifeUTV]

Makes sense. Honestly for the amount of times we use it. Its a drastic upgrade from what was on it. But good point. Thanks for chiming in👍

[@sicstringerman]

I've been wanting to do this to our camper. Perfect video!

[@qualityeventzyumaaz6216]

Sounds good definitely have to do that to mine

[@GLifeUTV]

Its a great upgrade man🍻🤙

[@robertwong6197]

How did you run the wires from the stereo to the amp so the speakers button selector can still work for like a and b

[@GLifeUTV]

They wired exactly in the same manner going in to the amp as they exit the amp...So channels a and b work the same.

[@adama.5407]

Nice work bro.. fun video

[@texicano30]

Great job installing those speakers, did you went up on the size?

[@GLifeUTV]

The old ones are 5 1/2. Really cheap And the rockford speakers are 6 1/2.. alot better quality too

[@kinglos5577]

What a big difference sounds good...

[@GLifeUTV]

It really is, glad i did it👌🙏

[@danashearer2137]

Hell ya man!!!!

[@robertruffinelli4031]

Where did you wire the positive and negative cables for the amplifier? Did you just tap into the power and ground from the radio?

[@GLifeUTV]

Yes.tapped into radio

[@paulbobenmoyer9055]

Hey Sir, just caught your video on exterior speaker upgrade abd will be doing this to my 5th wheel. I was wondering though, like to here more details if possible, on how you did your amp install in your camper. As that and a new head unit is on the shopping list.

[@GLifeUTV]

The amp is just piggy backing off the radio power

[@nathanpreston7303]

Do you Absolutely need the amp for the speakers to work? I believe amp will allow you to make them louder. But I’m No stereo guy. Wondering if I could buy speakers now and amp later is all. My speakers are blown just looking to get them working again and split up The cost. Let me know thanks. And perfect video by the way!!

[@GLifeUTV]

Your will get poor sound without the amp. These speakers require more juice.. but im sure they would still work

[@nathanpreston7303]

@@GLifeUTV Just got all the stuff in the mail for this set up. Couple questions where did you pull power from to power the amp. Did you hook up the rem connection for switched power? If so to where on the radio? I have the same head unit as you. Last but not least what size fuse did you use for the amp.

[@goranhikl1180]

I hope your neighbors like Stapleton

[@rauljerez7868]

You got yourself a new subscriber my friend! Badass work bro

[@GLifeUTV]

Thanks bro. I appreciate it👍

[@SC-oc4bo]

Use a headphone splitter and two Bluetooth transmitters to send music to both

[@GLifeUTV]

Thats a good option.. i originally thought of maybe one bluetooth recievers that is able to output to two different devices st once but all had poor reviews.. i think i might go the direction u mentioned.. thanks for ur input 👍🍻🤟

[@oceansidesam]

Did you only hook up 4 speakers to the 4 channel amp and leave 2 straight to the radio or all 6 to amp? If so, how? This video is dope man, I just upgrade my 4 interior ones, now need amp and exterior speakers.

[@GLifeUTV]

I only have 4 total speakers. Two on the inside. Two outside. Thanks bro i appreciate it

[@paulbobenmoyer9055]

Sir, very much interested in how you wired up your stereo amps in your camper, as I been wanting to upgrade the audio in my 5th wheel and add a amp along with the new system.

[@GLifeUTV]

We pretty much used the existing speaker wire and piggy backed the power and ground for the amp off the radio

[@El_Rico_Panini]

Did you toss in a fuse anywhere when you piggybacked off the power?

[@jrgarciaofficial]

Time to bring that thing out to Pismo!

[@GLifeUTV]

😁😁

[@chevysonly2772]

Where did you get your power for the amp? Running to the battery?

[@GLifeUTV]

Existing radio power

[@AN-kg4ei]

question on your amplifier... did you use a line output converter or does that head unit have preamp outputs on it??

[@siornetwork7701]

every headunit will have line level outputs, but it may not have a preamp. His amp will take a direct line level input, and thats what he did.

[@GLifeUTV]

im late to the party... thanks for answering. u rock

[@curty85]

"No Homo"... LOL good idea on bolting the spacers in, Ill do the same thing

[@GLifeUTV]

[@vidarecia9098]

Sick video man . How much to get it done to my attitude

[@GLifeUTV]

Im short on time brotha, but there is a parts list in the description with some of the things i used, thanks for watching🤙🤙🤙🍻

[@jasonkubitz9410]

Yo man, thanks for the video. I have all the same stock speakers on my Attitude too. I would love to do the same outside speakers you did but I just don't have the time. What are some good drop in replacements you recommend for the outside? Should I run a separate amp anyway regardless of the speaker? Thanks bro

[@GLifeUTV]

Gonna be hard to find some good seakers without adding spacers cuz the depth of the wall is very shallow bro

[@jasonkubitz9410]

@@GLifeUTV I'm ok with running spacers. I just don't want to be cutting a bigger hole.

[@GLifeUTV]

@@jasonkubitz9410 okay well honestly any speakers are better then the paper crap that comes with it.. grab some kickers they are affordable.. as long as they are 5.25.. i beleive thats the size

[@jasonkubitz9410]

@@GLifeUTV Coo. If I go 6.5s, do I have to cut the whole bigger even when using spacers? Or does it depend on the speaker?

[@GLifeUTV]

@@jasonkubitz9410 i would say it depends on the depth size of the speaker bro

[@jrang8]

What kind of amp do you have in your trailer I see it’s also a Rockford Fosgate can you tell me what size?thank you

[@GLifeUTV]

Its a400 watt amp. Link in the description

[@jrang8]

Thanks and great videos 👍🏽

[@bigp20019]

I'M Glad someone did a video on this i'm looking at toy haulers But i can't see spending 80,000 or more with that crappy sound system at last they should offer a Alpine , Kenwood or pioneer stereo system not jensen

[@GLifeUTV]

Mine was closer to 30k.. my buddy purchase a fifth wheel version of the toy hauler that he got for around 58k. That one came with a kicker sound system, but even that one has issues. Thanks for watching🙏👍

What model is your trailer and does ur cam am x3 fit good

[@GLifeUTV]

Barley..check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqjVd5eVnrOteqM

[@CorbinDallas88]

Did you run a power line all the way back to the battery? 400 watts probably needs an 8ga wire depending on how far away the battery is.

[@GLifeUTV]

used existing radio 10guage wire..

[@CorbinDallas88]

@@GLifeUTV Got it. My radio is supplied with a 14ga wire which is pretty thin. Would I need to run the power cable back to the battery or is there typically an electrical panel I can run to? I've wired up a dozen or so cars/trucks but not familiar with RV/trailers.

[@GLifeUTV]

@@CorbinDallas88 well i myself thought about running another power source, but on my hauler it really does look like a pain in the ass.. i would probably be easier to go to the battery then to the 12v electrical panel. i would do it to the killswitc, so you can still shut it off if needed. not jus straight to the battery.

[@CorbinDallas88]

@@GLifeUTV Yeah it's going to be a pain in the ass lol. Unfortunately I don't really have a choice since my lines aren't large enough. I already installed a killswitch so I'm good there. Not too worried about running the power line to the battery, I'm more concerned about the grounding. The amp is about 10ft or so from the chassis, so I'm not really sure what to do there. Ground wires should be as short as possible (usually less than 2') but that's not an option for me. I may have to wire it up like a boat and just run the same size wire as the power all the way back to the battery. Or is it fine to have a longer ground wire and just run it to the chassis? main reason I'm posting this here is because I'm sure others will have the same questions.

[@GLifeUTV]

@@CorbinDallas88 I don't see any reason why the ground cant be grounded to the chasis even 10ft away...as long as the guage of the cable is sufficient. and the chasis has a sufficient ground to the battery. which in most cases these haulers do. As long as you have good connections you shouldnt have an issue. Even in modern vehicles with so many computer modules. the chasis is used for grounding all the time.

[@Hotshot80640]

Hey bro great video, now that you had these outdoor speakers for a min, are you still liking them?

Also did you run your inside speakers to your amp too? Thanks for any info

@@Hotshot80640 Night and day difference from what came factory, and yea we also ran some rockford speakers in the inside that are powered by the same amp. very happy with this setup

Thanks Bro🙏

[@vorriskl]

Just so people know. There's no such thing as a volume knob on an amplifier. That's a gain knob and needs to be set to the radios distortion level. Gain is not volume. You will destroy speakers and amps thinking that. Nice build though. Sounds great 👍🏼
