It is always great that you point out that everybody has different requirements for a system. We all have different things we want out of a system and being able to draw out those requirements from a customer is critical to having a successful continuing business.
@@paulchristiansen7014 Me too and I also like it subwoofer heavy though. I really adore the Sony Mobile ES speakers because the sound quality is extremely high for the price, slim mounting depth, and look very pretty.
I've learned a lot from you guys, thanks for your vids and more so, taking pride in what you do. I'm a custom airbrush painter, so if you have any "Super Kustom" jobs tell them "you know a guy"🤔😉😁
Same. I sound treated all 4 doors in my Highlander, and holy crap what a difference in volume, detail, and bass for my 4 Kicker KSS6504s. Dean's attention to detail keeps gnawing at me to also solder and fabric tape all my wire harness connections behind the dash. If he took my HU out, he'd be ashamed, lol...
I was based in Holland for a while back in 2002, and decided to do an install. The car audio shop down the road recommended Hertz to me so that's what I got and fitted. Meanwhile, one of my freinds bought a new BMW with an expensive optional Harmon Kardon system. He was totally appalled at how I built something from "thug shops" and it totally owned his "top of the range" system. TLDR: Hertz = pretty good.
Epic! Awesome video - your attention to detail and passion make this a joy to watch. Very educational also 👊🏽🙌🏽 if I wasn’t on the other side of the country I’d definitely be bringing my Tacoma over to you for an upgrade!!
Very thorough install! Thanks for sharing... but... where did you mount the Maestro Smart Controller? under the dash? I'm guessing next to the OBD2 jack? any recommends on placement of this is appreciated!
It's funny... I ended up doing something similar to my Frontier... 3-way 6x9 in the doors, and the dome tweeter in the dash. I was told that this would be too much tweet...and I'd be better off using a component set, with correct crossovers. I like how it sounds... the sound accuracy is pretty impressive. What are your thoughts? I actually 3D printed my dash mounts for my tweeters. I used PETG to prevent summertime melt down.
Fantastic video! Was curious if you've done a Tacoma with the JBL setup? Have been trying to research ways to retrain all stock locations and add some extra bass using the existing sub enclosure. Don't want my ears to bleed, just clean sound with some more thump than factory.
01:02:16 Why is the dash out of phase? Man this really has me thinking. I'm considering the reflection off the windshield... also considering the arrival delta between speaker location. But I'm missing something that would justify the dash being out of phase and some how arriving at the listening position in phase. I can't see how a reflection would invert the phase, and time correction should be the solution to align them with the door. So I see some forums stating any separation more than 8-10 inches the tweeters should be out of phase. So it has to be associated with arrival delta. I can sort of get my head around it now.
Nice install Thank you guys. What if I want to keep my factory radio and just want to install an amplifier with new speakers. What kind of adapter will you recommend and or amplifier that will work best with the stereo in my 2022 Tacoma?
Awesome 2+ day install, enjoyed all the extras and attention to details. I have the exact 2020 Tacoma on the thumbnail. I have swapped the 4 door speakers previously and waiting for my 5 channel amp to arrive. I plan to high level speed wire from the OEM head unit to the amp and speed wire back to the speakers wiring harness. The 8" kicker loaded sub 46TL7T82 fits in the rear pasenger pocket with grill behind the seat. I love your custom amp rack and fuse holder mount. Do you sell these items or can you provide info on find similar product here in Canada? Great video, nice work!
How do those Audiocontrol amps stack up against JL Audio? Right now I have a JL Audio HD900/5 but I like how the Audiocontrol amps have the DSP built in to it.
Hello, great video, just wondering do you sell those amplifier rack under the front seats for a 2019 Toyota Tacoma double cab off road? I'm planning on installing one amp on each front seat, please let me know, thank you.
Hey guys, is it necessary to keep the plastic vapor barrier, when I installed my components I didn't I just used a product similar to Sound skin and covered the whole door including the holes. I have a 2004 Tacoma
I have a Kenford amp and a Boonsnap amp, they sell them at the swap meet. They fit nice in my Toyota, they are 6000 watts but it doesn't seem loud at all.
I have this install in my 19 Sequoia but lost the navigation in the center dash screen, is there a way to throw Google Maps from Android Auto onto that screen?
you guys experience any issues with fast rings being in such humid and rainy conditions in Florida? Just wondering, seems like it would be a big sponge when it rains in the door.
It’s not the size, it’s the shrink factor. Not all shrink tube is made the same. You have 2:1, where it shrinks by half, 3:1 where it shrinks to a third the original size and 4:1 to go to a quarter of original size. I’m sure there are other shrink factor heat shrinks, but those are the most common ones. You’d want a 3:1 or 4:1 for RCA’s like the stingers with small wire jackets. Just make sure if your using 4:1 to start on the wire side and shrink only enough around the rca end to make it tight. Too much over heating and you’ll split the shrink.
@@mainmanmustard 👍🏽thanks for the reply bro. Ya hooked up with wirecarecom. Got a couple of their kids. 3 to 1 worked great and got some colors styles also👍🏽
To be fair, you can have a bleedingly loud system that retains high quality. I pump 150w into my door speakers. I wired driver front and driver rear door speakers into a 2ohm load. Same on passenger side. Pumped 150w into them. I can legit get out of the car with the doors open, in a parking lot, crank it to max volume, and its like being at a stadium, no distortion, ridiculously loud, and the quality is still there. You can legit hear me from blocks away if I ever turn it up to max. Thankfully I'm not deaf yet so I never really go to max except when I'm outside the car and showing off. Inside the car I sit more around the 50-75% mark.
@Jesse M Well, there is nearly $6,500 in equipment and installation accessories alone.... And I'd figure AT LEAST $1,500 for installation LABOR, but probably closer to $2500+ due to the sound deadening installation and custom amp & tweeter mounts. So a rough total of $9,000-$10,000.
I was wondering same thing so I created a list of the parts they used and went to Crutchfield to look up pricing. I totaled over $5,000 for the parts alone.
Going from 200 watts to 300 watts on a pair is not going to make a difference. You need to double your power in order for you to get double the sound. Or double the number of speakers.
Man I wish I could find guys like y’all to do my Tacoma sound system.
It is always great that you point out that everybody has different requirements for a system. We all have different things we want out of a system and being able to draw out those requirements from a customer is critical to having a successful continuing business.
yes, I am SQ plus type of person it's to what everyone flavor is in the car audio world...
@@paulchristiansen7014 Me too and I also like it subwoofer heavy though. I really adore the Sony Mobile ES speakers because the sound quality is extremely high for the price, slim mounting depth, and look very pretty.
I hear both of y’all. I’m more of a high end guy and try not limit myself on budget but on what is sonically superior.
You guys go above and beyond on every install, too bad everyone else wasn't like this.
After watching this video I realize I need to upgrade my Tacoma stereo. !!! Excellent work as always!!
You guys are amazing you guys are the kind of peopple the I want to install my system
Yall do a great job 👏🏻
Very meticulous work
Hey Dean and Fernando I love you guys Thank you for continuing to show the best

Hello I really enjoyed the video but why yo don't put the links where you get the stuff you use
Awesome video loud tweeters… even on my iPad with no headphones. Wow
I f'n love you guys. Wish I lived close enough to bring my truck in
6:32 make sure you put your 10 mm tool back in a safe place. Those things are always disappearing LOL. Also, it's a truck not a car. Great video 👍👍
0:19, BEST intro EVER!
Good morning guys
Epic! Awesome video - your attention to detail and passion make this a joy to watch. Very educational also 👊🏽🙌🏽 if I wasn’t on the other side of the country I’d definitely be bringing my Tacoma over to you for an upgrade!!
I need those brackets for the tweeters for my tacoma
Awesome video guys! Thank you for taking the time to explain each step. Keep up the great work!
Great install

"Not loud enough" for the price probably. Great video!

Nice job job there . Just a thought what about 5star sock's.....for the gear knob of course lol
I was looking into the installation in the Honda akord and I would love to know the price and location of the the equipment and the work of it
From spl show to morel virtus what brand has the quality of sound and longevity?
HEY GUYS,I REALLY enjoyed the video, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ALL WAS LISTENING BACK AND FORTH IN THE FRONT AND BACK 💺, USE IT AS A COMMERCIAL
Hopefully this video can convince my bro to put a system in his truck.
11:02 little tiny magnet
As if he didn’t show us the child’s toy that came out of the car door🤣
Just curious….I have a 2022 Tacoma and want a complete system. How much does this setup all in cost?
why not buy the tweeter adapters?
How do those Audiocontrol amps stack up against JL Audio? Right now I have a JL Audio HD900/5 but I like how the Audiocontrol amps have the DSP built in to it.
Hello, great video, just wondering do you sell those amplifier rack under the front seats for a 2019 Toyota Tacoma double cab off road? I'm planning on installing one amp on each front seat, please let me know, thank you.
I dont sound alignment either. I like it to play just like that

Hi Dean, great video on t6he install. Do you guys sell those tweeter mounts for the Tacoma?
Great detailed job!! Where you are located? I have '16 Tacoma...needs same system. How much?
Can you do a tacoma with the jbl system how to install amp pro please I wanna add a bigger sub to mine
Silly question for you….would you be willing to make me the underseat amp rack for my Tacoma?
why you guys doesn't install a power capacitor the way the alternator doesn't get damage
Quick question I have jbl package what if I just want to change the sub to another 8 inch sub what would I have to do? I want to keep everything else
"you can go blind" is the best thing Ive ever heard
if those tweeters are too loud for someone can they be made less offensive without loosing any definition or clarity?
Where did u get the subwoofer enclosure at
Do you guys recommend a shop in Anahiem California?
How do those 10 inch shallow subs sound?
Well...lets be honest....p3 shallow mounts do NOT equal spl
I want this in my Tacoma!!
Do you lose any camera functionality such as birds eye view?
I have a Kenford amp and a Boonsnap amp, they sell them at the swap meet. They fit nice in my Toyota, they are 6000 watts but it doesn't seem loud at all.
if you were to do this install in a 2020 version, would you? What would you do differently?
Total cost for 2+ day install?
The you sale that black plastic I need the same for tacoma
Hey Dean , could the kenwood also be ISO mounted with the factory brackets ?
Do you sale the amp board for the Tacoma?
What’s the price for all that work?
Would it be possible to share the wiring diagram? 28:32
awesome video!! ty
I have this install in my 19 Sequoia but lost the navigation in the center dash screen, is there a way to throw Google Maps from Android Auto onto that screen?
How thick is the abs you used for the amp rack?
you guys experience any issues with fast rings being in such humid and rainy conditions in Florida? Just wondering, seems like it would be a big sponge when it rains in the door.
Nice clean install but I would like to see you guys do a really high power system. (something that will break a windshield)
Did you run a thicker gauge of wire for the install?
Are you guys running the fronts at 2ohms?
How much does something like this cost
Love the videos you are doing keep up the good work.👌👌
Does this work with the JBL stereo in the 2019 Tacoma ?
Does anyone know or understand how he connected the tweeters to the amp without using a passive crossover?
Active crossovers through the dsp
Hey what size heat shrink do you use for example to go over the rca head but also shrink enough to the actual rca wire like you guys have there.

@@woodman0860 thanks for the info. Labor was pretty intense as well
@@woodman0860 so that would probably be about 3500-4000 because crutchfield is overpriced

So including labour and materials probably 5k install

If He wants it loud, D1200 and LC1500 would have been a better fit.
Going from 200 watts to 300 watts on a pair is not going to make a difference. You need to double your power in order for you to get double the sound. Or double the number of speakers.
@@ricardomolina4605you need ten times the power to double the sound.
