at the 6:32 mark I just poked a good length of wire into the engine bay from inside the car, located it (easy since it's a bright blue wire) and fished it out with my hands. If it's a little cluttered under the hood you can use one of those things old folks/people with disabilities use to grab stuff to grab onto it and pull it out too. Maybe I'm just lucky though, because despite it being a mini van it was easy enough, albeit a little uncomfortable and cramped, to just grab the end with my hand after I poked it through the grommet.
34:10 is sound test for anyone looking for it but I was going to get a set of 12” but the same manufacturer what do you guys think should I get 8” or 12”
This is my first time installing subs. I have an aftermarket radio, will I need to cut all the wires for it still? That’s the only thing I’m confused about in this video. Why did you need to cut all the radio wires?
So the speaker wire from amp just has one woofer speaker wire connection? I was thinking on getting this system, but removing the speakers and mounting them in the left / right side panels in a 73 ford pinto, It's a trunk model Pinto, I have 6x9s in the rear panel near the back glass already, If I set it up as i said here, can't I use the rcs outs and run them to each speaker? It's weird how it has 2 speaker in the box, but only one speaker connection on the back
I’m having a problem with the amplifier, all the wires are wired correctly and connected to the amplifier but it wont turn on? i’m not sure why, I thought maybe I didn’t wire the car correctly so I tested out a different amplifier and it worked just fine. Any clue why the Rockville amplifier wont work?
on the Rockville amp? I have not touched any of them since i received the amplifier. The gain id to 6V Bass eq to 0dB LP to 50Hz FR to 10Hz and Crossover Mode to FR
I did everything in the video and im getting power to the amp but my sub woofers wont work I tryed a second set of speaker wires and still nothing. Any tips ?
I have a question, do you believe these will fit in a 93 s10 pickup/tahoe? The truck has had no speakers since I purchased it and I had it sitting because I been waiting to get my permit since last year in April, just been looking to get a nice somewhat system for a nice price.
@@DrivenbyGears what would be the best settings for the amp I've never touched one or seen one really for a sub that is, or should I look up videos telling me how cause I listen to more to hip hop/rap and idk if you listen to that type of music so idk if my anp tuning should be different
Do you know where the rca cables hook up on the radio? I have a Sony radio that has 2 black ports, 1 red, 1 white, and then 1 blue one that says “sub rear audio out.” But there’s 2 rca cords so I’m a little confused. If you know anything that can help me I would really appreciate it!
Honestly I picked up a 10' Rockville sub with that same amp and it really sounds nice.
Very good, it is sound this is subwoofers rockville,perfect sound The bass.silvio from Brazil.
I just bought mine and got it installed. It does sound good.
Heck yea I was suprised
@@DrivenbyGears Is your Rockville amp still going strong?
@@shimhedges715 yep
I want to hear a video of how your speaker sound

Sorry I’m a bit slow and wanna make sure it’s all right, so to be sure, the blue wire just connects to the blue wire from your stereo correct?
yes as long as it says remote wire or power antenna
@@DrivenbyGears okay cool, thank you so much man🙏
34:10 is sound test for anyone looking for it but I was going to get a set of 12” but the same manufacturer what do you guys think should I get 8” or 12”
Actually maybe go to 32:00
If it's small car I think 12s would be to strong
@@DrivenbyGears ok 👌 thank you
Np
@@DrivenbyGears oh one more question what video has that song on it
This is my first time installing subs. I have an aftermarket radio, will I need to cut all the wires for it still? That’s the only thing I’m confused about in this video. Why did you need to cut all the radio wires?
I didn't cut all the wires I did a new head unit so the wires were never wired up. So no don't cut anything just hook up rca cables and remote wire .
@@DrivenbyGears ahh ok. That makes much more sense. I was thinking why did he cut all the wires just to solder them back together? Ha
What is that 20 foot long gold wire for?
@@lylebauer634 for the sub and amp to connect to each other
First let me say thank you for the best video on how to connect Rockville system. I did exactly what you did but mine is a lil bit hot is that normal?
He just likes the comment didnt even answer😂
🤣🤷
@@drewill367 if it's not too hot then it's ok
@@freeair7292 thank you
@@drewill367 no problem man 😎
Never run your rca on the same side as your power it causes interference
are these worth getting

@@sufio454 i have one and the windows shake not even at full blast

@@sufio454i drive a sedan do u think duel 10s 2400w would be good
besides the actual amp where do i plug in the remote wires? do they go into my radio?
Blue one or the controller one?
@@DrivenbyGears the really thin blue one
Comes from the radio same blue wire or it will same remote antenna
@@DrivenbyGears thanks
Beautiful install, 1 thing though, never attach your amp to your box, it will greatly shorten the life of your amp due to the excess vibration
Okay question, to be clear, you got a new radio harness setup and just normally wired that but added the blue wire?
No blue wire comes from factory its the remote wire or power antenna wire, it's basically a power wire from the key
i know im late, but i had heard that you don't want to mount amp t box. Any thoughts?
Yeah a lot of ppl do but it could mess up the amp and also cause distortion
Do you just wire the remote wire to an auxiliary wire?
So you do hook up the REM? And what did you wire it to
So the speaker wire from amp just has one woofer speaker wire connection? I was thinking on getting this system, but removing the speakers and mounting them in the left / right side panels in a 73 ford pinto, It's a trunk model Pinto, I have 6x9s in the rear panel near the back glass already, If I set it up as i said here, can't I use the rcs outs and run them to each speaker? It's weird how it has 2 speaker in the box, but only one speaker connection on the back
Yes had only one spot for speaker wire from box so they must have wired them internally
@@DrivenbyGears do you know the ohms cause it a four ohm amp I think they wire it to two ohm got a pair on the way and multi meter just curious
I’m having a problem with the amplifier, all the wires are wired correctly and connected to the amplifier but it wont turn on? i’m not sure why, I thought maybe I didn’t wire the car correctly so I tested out a different amplifier and it worked just fine. Any clue why the Rockville amplifier wont work?
The switches on it what are they on?
on the Rockville amp? I have not touched any of them since i received the amplifier. The gain id to 6V Bass eq to 0dB LP to 50Hz FR to 10Hz and Crossover Mode to FR
I hope thats what you mean by “switches”
Turn all the dials all the way up and do you have the lights on the Amp lite up?
The lights don’t turn on when I hook up the amplifier, could the turning the dials up fix this issue?
WILL THESE FIT IN A 14 EXPLORER? THE 12S?
When you received your package did the subwoofer already come in the box?
Yes
@@DrivenbyGears okay thanks !
I have the 2 10s I need help adjusting the amp
Thanks! Checked there website👍 cool tip for audio or the garage. Keep it up brother
Thanks brother
Where does my output line converter go??
I did everything in the video and im getting power to the amp but my sub woofers wont work I tryed a second set of speaker wires and still nothing. Any tips ?
New amp
Also what’s the best amp settings
I got the first 2 knobs maxed out and the others half way
Do you need a extra battery or one of those things that hold power to run this more then a hour at a time
You should get a capacitor
OK but how are there two remotes? How'd you wire it? And mine came with an independence converter with the exact speakers.
I do not understand where the remote wire goes any way I can get som help?
It's the blue wire from stereo. Sometimes says power antenna
On my radio it didn't have the remote amp wire so I connected to the ignition wire
I have a question, do you believe these will fit in a 93 s10 pickup/tahoe? The truck has had no speakers since I purchased it and I had it sitting because I been waiting to get my permit since last year in April, just been looking to get a nice somewhat system for a nice price.
I’m putting 2 10s in my s10 as I speak lol, it’s an extended cab tho
What did you do with the bass booster?
Also I don't have a bass booster for some reason
bass remote malfunctioning.amp n sub cut out when plugged in....unplug the remote line and they crank up...?any advice?
The rca cables, both blue ones. Are they attached to the radio?? If so where at?
Yes back of stereo but not all stereos have it so if there is no rca ports on stereo you have to wite high low wiring
Bight them just waiting for them to come in , how hard do they but like can you feel it does jt shake your car stuff like that?
Yea in a hatchback I could probably blow the back window out
@@DrivenbyGears what would be the best settings for the amp I've never touched one or seen one really for a sub that is, or should I look up videos telling me how cause I listen to more to hip hop/rap and idk if you listen to that type of music so idk if my anp tuning should be different
@@DrivenbyGears also could you do a follow up on them like viewing then while in the car and outside with the trunk closed? stuff like that.
hey i don't have RCA outputs in my factory radio, can you maybe make a video on how to set up the high low wiring onto the factory radio?
Sure
What was the point of wiring radio wires to another harness??
I have a Jeep Compass 2016 can I connect it the same as you are in this video? I already purchased the speakers.
Yes you can
Just need a good positive to battery and good ground. Everything else comes from radio
Can i just hook up to my reagular speakers in car
Please do a follow up video on your setup
What did you need to see?
i’m so confused my 10s came with a 1200 watt amplifier and no bass know or fuse holder
I have the same amp but with 12 inch subs and mike does not bump like this. How could I make it hit harder? The little knobs on the AMP?
Yea you git to tune your amp to the sub also u can mess with bass in the radio equalizer or what ever app you use to listen to music has an equalizer
i have an Factory radio with this same aftermarket sub, will i need anything extra to install?
Nope
For the rcas you might need a line output converter
I have no RCA cables on the back of my stereo how would I wire it then?
I've never installed a sub and amp and it looks so difficult you are the only person with a video for this exact model
You have to use the high low wiring the one with all the small wires
Do you know where the rca cables hook up on the radio? I have a Sony radio that has 2 black ports, 1 red, 1 white, and then 1 blue one that says “sub rear audio out.” But there’s 2 rca cords so I’m a little confused. If you know anything that can help me I would really appreciate it!
You need a line out converter
Where do you plug the RCA into?
I’m wondering the same thing pal
What size was the
Little green fuse in the back of the amp???
30 i have the same kit
This box is supposed to be used in a downfiring position, correct?
No it sits like that and has the vent on the bottom
Hey, do you have the dimensions for the box? L,W,H,D?
Look on the link think it might be there
Got it!!! Thanks!!! I just scored this system for $35 super deal.

You think it can fit a 2010 genesis coupe ?
Absolutely
@@DrivenbyGears also one more thing you don’t need to buy anything extra it has everything right?
Yea
I got these same sub and amp and it doesn’t hit as hard as yours any suggestions why?
if you get a better amp it will hit wayyyy harder and have much more bass
everything was great about this video how ever you didnt exactly show so to hook it up to the radio
How much for u to install for me I have a 2013 Mazda Cx-5
How about a video on Audi A4 2014🙏🏽
What’s the wire that says rem go to?
Remote wire or power antenna wire
Good video
Thanks it could been better
Just installed mine but they don’t be shaking like the beginning. Do you think a wire is wrong or something?
You turn up the remote?
@@DrivenbyGears yes I have it up
What's your settings on the amp?
@@outidenine7611 you might need to turn the gain up on the amp and then if nothing changed check to make sure your power wire is connected solid
Wire your speakers down to 2 ohms and it should hit harder
what size is the box i know its for 8's im talking the outer width side to side and height front to back
Do it with the trunk shut
Is it 400 watts each sub?
Idk the subs are tied together
Good
U kept leaving parts out and it wasn’t as helpful as I thought. Rockville also did not give me a wire for the booster remote
It’s easy bro
