    Jaybird is a good friend. Back in the day he loaned me $140 bucks to buy "Bass Box Pro" so i could elevate my speaker box game. He said "someday, you will hook my system up in return". So here is his $140 install about 20 years later.
    Next video, i will have it all finished Turn your notifications on!

    this mission is almost complete. Make sure to subscribe and set your notifications for this channel so you don't miss the reveal! He is gonna flip out! the last time he heard his car it was that Pioneer deck and those two garbage stock speakers. He aint ready for this! After i set the gains with the AMAZING and SUPERIOR SMD DD-1+ and the AWESOME CC-1 crossover calibrator, it is gonna sound so damn good! If you don't know why this is a $140 install, make sure you check out the entire playlist from the beginning. I talked about it several times. Plus you will get to see how that magnetic, wireless removable box was done. Thanks for watching! view the playlist here >> th-cam.com/play/PLbHKD58RLZvWx1xtb5HZNlTZxQkxytDWC.html

    You usually have a fine selection of tools and equipment. But you didn't have your green tin snips for left turning cuts. However you managed very well for using the wrong tool. And you are the highest quality . Don't doubt your work . You don't settle for less than the best. Keeps my interest where most don't

    Watching the front door speaker install, to make it easier to cut round holes in sheet metal, use either red( right cut) or green( left cut) handle sheet metal sheers. Great channel, thanks.

    • @meade916
      @meade916  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      i don't need help. It wasn't hard. Except for one side that was double walled. I have been working with sheet metal for 30 years, i got this. But thanks anyway just in case.

    @michaelwatson5747 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've watched these videos (series) enough times to know every word by heart. Today, I noticed something that I totally missed. Lol! The metal trimming moment. I saw the mod but missed the moment where you actually did the cutting. I'm having to do this with a set of Sony 6.5 ES components on an 06 Accord. The molex moment was NOICE too. Struggling with the tweeter placement (for me) as I like the whole stealth look of my tweets in the dash. This placement gets them out of the dash which changes the front stage in a positive way I'm sure. Video saved for ref. Thanks for sharing brother. Oh - Love the box too - that it works and keeps the spare in the car.

    Subs: $2.50 for both with box
    Battery: $0.75
    Wires: $0.05 per foot

    Now this is interesting, a budget build! Something that I can actually try at home hahah.. its too bad that in europe this stuff is relatively more expensive and less abundant (car audio equipment in general, there's no way that setup would cost 140€ here)

    • @meade916
      @meade916  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      it only costs that here because that is all i charged him LOL

      ​@@meade916 Well that makes more sense hahahaha
      still, it was really interesting to see the doors part, as its very similar to my car, sadly in mine the speakers are fixed to the plastic part (interior part) of the door panel so it rattles itself appart with the smallest bit of bass, even tho i covered the whole panel with deadener.. but hopefully i'll get another car soon XD

    Steve is the kind of friend ya want to borrow/help with $. He's a good guy and as far as his business, he stands behind his products and puts out great products. I've been really happy with everything I've had that was a SMD product and stuff he endorsed. (Of course until some pieces of shit thieves broke into my garage/car and stole everything. My entire set-up and all my install tools.) I would seriously recommend SMD products to absolutely anyone.

    I hope he painted the exposed metal edge after cutting off that thin strip. Lots of moisture will get in the door from rain and washes, and the raw metal will rust quickly if not covered. Worst part, no one will see it and it will fester and spread and eat the door from the inside.
