My buddy Psyph Morrison has never had a "real" sound system before. I have been telling him for a long time i would put something in one of his cars. Due to him living an hour away, having a job and also not having a car he was happy with, we never got around to it. But when he got the Accord, i was all in! This will be fun. WAIT till you see the look on his face. Enjoy the build!

for daily updates a lot sooner than youtube....visit and follow my instagram channel instagram.com/meade916 thanks!
meade916 I can't wait to see his face
meade916 i recently found out that the amps in my truck are not even secured they’re just wired in are you open to the public? I do understand you are doing this system for someone you know.
Also i seen stan around for a few years now
What u did was straight up knocking it out the park man.
meade916 bro looks good although I had a bad experience in not running it through the stock boot . Ended up getting water in the cab ...
sounds like you or your installer didn't know what they were doing. Next time take it to someone more qualified.
sorry Audry my shop is not an install bay for the public. But thanks anyway just in case i was! :)
Sorry about having to stretch it into another video but...like i said, the files on 4k video's take forever to deal with and if i don't show you every detail of what i am doing, you might think they just put themselves in there. Hug your local audio guy next time you see him because this shit is time consuming. Even the easy stuff takes time to do right. Respect to those who do it for a living daily!
Steve Meade, the Audio Doctor with a PHD in quality car audio installation. Salute from Kingston Jamaica.
So used to seeing the new Escalade, ISF, and systems over 10k watts. It’s crazy to see you work on something like an old Accord and a “standard” sized system at that. It’s nice to see that you’re not above it, and hooking up the homie too. Staying humble and never losing sight of your roots.
Steve you're an awesome business man and person.
No wonder you've done so well!
sorry guys 4k takes FOREVER and then some to fully process. Prob won't be till much later, more than likely tomorrow before the best quality shows up.
Looking good! Can't wait to see the amp rack
Steve Meade you took a gift and turned it into a living . You have the patience not a lot of people have and the drive to steady come up with cool new ideas. Your work is inspirational.
thanks guys!! I appreciate you early birds haha..that was fast! :D
meade916 great work
i cant watch enough man you build some sick stuff
Reminds me a those first few days whenever ya get a new vehicle n just got your beats inn lmao ain't got nowhere to go but ya out driving anyways and volunteering to run everyone else's errands hahaha
Steve makes the most simple job look nice and clean! Creative and gifted!
Hell ya. Kinda like these "normal" Install vids. Like the series & not one giant video. Keep 'em flowin
thanks Joey!
And what a great explanation of why TH-camrs do multi part video projects!
I think others think we must know why or just don't care LOL.
Take your time big man... we love your work. We will wait because it's always worth it.
There will be some that complain about anything. I prefer the separate vids as it makes the entire install feel like a “season” of shows. Brother Psyph is gonna be psyched 😎
thanks BigDWiz bro!!! plus, you know very well what it is like to work with these big ass files. haha...damn.
Still love the old-school videos ! Quality work and the metal bending !
It’s nice to see you do a pretty basic install. Well.. at least in a basic car. Good work man. Been a subscriber for years!
Boss install bro. You dont miss a beat. Even idiot proofing the panel wires!!! Bustaz take note - THIS is how its done RIGHT!!
What thanks for watching thanks for watching,, No .. thanks for posting.. you do awesome work dude
Call me a noob but that's the first time I've even considered mounting the crossover inside the door. Top notch job too with the custom bracket and everything. And to think I thought I was so smart for mounting the crossovers behind the a-pillar kick panels in my first install in my cousin's Ford Sierra over 15 years ago, haha. Though to be fair in that setup I mounted the tweeters about 1/3 the way up his A-pillar next to the front window, so I suppose in that case the crossover location did make sense. Still it's nice to learn new stuff especially since it's done with so much attention to detail. I love stuff done properly and Steve you always deliver, thanks!
Glad to see you throw some old school techniques into that install. Not everything has to be soldered, heat shrunk, and tesa taped. Much love.
Show these young cats some hard work, you just make it look easy.
Love watching you work, your installs are the best I have see and I watch a lot of car audio on TH-cam. Good on ya mate 😀
meade916 the only reason I start up my pc and watch his videos for hours ....
damnnnnnnn meade916 liked my comment thankss
thanks a lot man i love it!
Just got into the Elevators union, Time to make the big bucks and get a big system >:)
This helped me out with designing the build for my car. Thanks, man!
Man,this is one of your best series.
As someone who has installed car audio equipment for many close friends and family, your work is very admirable. I never really got into aftermarket speakers too much and am thinking about doing a sound system overhaul on my 2015 Forester. While I'm looking to maintain factory appearance as much as possible, and to maintain as much cargo room as possible, I took away some hints from this video as well. Great work!
Always enjoyed your attention to detail to even the most minuscule things. Love all the videos.
Love when the audio system is worth more than the vehicle!!!
worth more than your vehicle too. And?
Been thinking of getting component speakers for the Tahoe but didn't know where to mount the box.. This just gave me some ideas.. Nice work man..
Much love from Houston Tx...
Install episodes are good, please make more of these type of videos.
You’re doing ya thang Steve. You’re videos are great to me, wether they’re short or long.
B K true asf
jayhomi tv thanks bro
Good shit bro. From 1000 watts to 30,000 watts and still no short cuts taken. Keep up the good work bro.
Because if youre gonna do something, do it right or dont do it at all.
Shows great character and business ethics when you hook a friend up and still do this caliber of work! If there’s a thing called Karma your shop will be open and successful for life! Keep up the great work!
F'n finaly, vid 2! Beer time. I still find it mind blowing Psyph was rolling stock for so long, hell or even for a day!
Nice. Can't wait till video 3 and the final video.
big fan Steve I wanna get to the level your on much respect because you do your own work
Audio system worth more than the car! lol $1500 Honda with $3k audio system. Might aswell install a viper alarm in there lol. Great work though Steve.
worth more than that truck in your profile pic too. Who cares?
Clean install. Looking good, cant wait to see the end result.
Clever way to mount the crossovers.. Always learning new stuff on this channel 👌
I like to idiot proof the door panels too. That’s a cool crossover mount. Never thought about using thin gauge steel like that. Awesome install!!! Can’t wait for the react video. He’s gonna be stoked. Nothing like that first tuned listen.
My box Chevy.... that song is a slapper
Bro your videos are like good movies. Watch till the end and wait for the sequel 👌
Man, always play the right music in the background.
I'm still trying to figure out the song that used the computer love beat
The anticipation is a killer... Excited though
Its cool that u doing it for a friend 👍
Steve just keep up the good work. I watch u and sound man inc. Keep doing what u love to do. Screw all the haters !!!! Keep that sh#t slapping
So much professional in one video
NICE... KEEP THESE SORT OF VIDEOS COMING EVERY CHANCE YOU GET...
Steve, your work is super clean. I have a car like that and it was a bitch to run the front speaker wires. You accomplished the cleanest look I have seen right there. Not even my car and I really appreciate your hard work to get it done right.
Very nice mounts for the crossovers Steve. Clean and simple,that's how it's supposed to go.
Nothing to it but to do it and that's the right way. Keep up the good work, Brah...
Thats an impressive setup he's going to have . Im sure he's going to love it .
Mad props on fabbing up those simple, but practical x-over mounts!
thanks Delvin. It was freestyle mode haha...i just saw it and made it work. Helps having my little sheet metal brake (and years of roofing under my belt). I am used to working with GSM.
I completely understand your reasoning, but damn I wouldn't think twice about watching your videos even if they were 20-30 minutes long. Y'all do some truly quality work without cutting any corners. Eager for the next video
thanks man!
Nice clean installation by a true professional. 👍
Damn man I don’t be wanting the videos to end 😞
I miss the days when rockford built there actual seperates. Their tweeter, midrange, midbass combo for front stage was so clean and crisp.
i'm fucking terrible with door panels and you make it look so damn easy, fantastic work as always
in my defense...it is an easy car and an easy panel haha! but thanks bro i appreciate ya.
could you do an educational series? i know your projects are pretty well documented and you're a busy guy but i would love to learn more tips and tricks.
Good idea i 2nd that ^^^^^
really helps out new guys like me to see the simple installs. thanks!
You are the car audio system OG. I think its dope as fuck you installed in an older honda - even the old ones need some audio love. good work brother
Awesome work as always Steve. Those passive mounts are now strutural. Love it!!With the test bump, they sound fantastic. Great midbass already!
Nice Big Dawg, someday iam coming down to purchase some of those 18” Decedents Subwoofers you have, iam saving up some money till that day comes, for Sure, keep up the good work Homie 👍🏽👍🏽
4 vids I dont mind I actually find this very interesting I was always curious how this was done you do clean precise work I wish I lived near u cuz you wouldbe installing my system
really like that door speaker install. thanks for the great idea to mount the crossovers for now on.
Awesome vid Steve,keep them coming..after all these years and still as interesting as the backyard days..
Your build videos are my favorite. Can't wait for the next part. Nice sweater BLH
More care given to the wiring than some car manufacturers lol. Excellent video.
Oh yea man!!!! Can't wait for the next two vids love the humbleness!! Much love and respect from Colorado!
Always done so clean and profesionally. Thanks for all the helpfull and inspirational videos over the years. Have been a big fan since day one
Nice I have older Acura thinking about doing the same thing to it ✌🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Just finished watching the first video ...perfect timing😁
Keep up the great work bro. been watching since 2008. crazy 10 years already lol. you inspired me to get into car audio and im sure as hell glad i am in this hobby now
Damn, Psyph a simple guy rollin in an 02 Accord!
I actually engineer, design, install and program whole house automation, and theaters, which is all 12 volt anyway, but what I enjoy is that he makes his nstalls as idiot proof as possible, just like I use to do when I installed car audio. I carried that level of detail into home audio, and started my own business doing to homes, what he does to cars. #TRUESTORYBRO
If you ever need a sound barrier for a sound studio, hit us up Our Luxury Liner rolls make an awesome barrier layer and are used in Dr Offices, Elevator Shafts, and even in Recording Studios like the new one being built in Burbank, CA using Second Skin Luxury Liner (Can't reveal the name yet).
Second Skin Insulation I'll keep that in mind, I usually use quiet rock, and various industry standard acoustic panels to remove reflection, and so forth. There isn't a whole lot of call for sound deadening, as we aren't talking about incredible decibel levels, but rather HIGHLY calibrated set ups for 7.1+...
I will keep that in mind though, if the situation ever turns up, or I build another car audio system.
4K 60fps - Beautiful !!!
Hell yeah steve jammin type o negative
Great job Steve!!! 👍👍👍 That was awesome work!!! You did that quick and kept it simple!!! Great video bro!!!
After that sound system your boy just needs a set of 20s and some tints
Does good work. Just looking at those connections was confusing.red to blue blue to red wrong gauge connection on each. The person taking it part will think, it was connected wrong before him. Good thing it connects only one way.
No hay cosa más relajante en el mundo que ver tus vídeos después de un día de trabajo.
gracias Ruben!
That is a clean install...
Can't wait for vid 3
look forward to ya videos hard bro!!! all the way from New Zealand!!!!
Joseph Piper what part bro?
Psyph gonna love this
Had a system in my old Honda. Loved it
Love those classic install videos
Wish we had good car audio people in LI NY. West coast definitely shitting on the east coast when it comes to this.
I would think if the wires connected to the same color it would be easier for the person, cause they’re gonna be like “...well I think this color would go with this color” but either way they’ll figure it out. Even if they were all the same color..can’t really mess that up.
Hey steve, could you do a vid on how to choose equipment for your system? Like to know the decision making process from a pro perspective.
I.e. What level speakers and how you know they'll fit - than what amp brand and what you look for etc
Man after a few minutes I was just trying to hear that bay ish. Lol I miss home
Man your work is so clean!!!!!! Love it brother keep up the great work and videos.
Can we please have a Spotify or TH-cam music playlist of what you play in the shop?
Pimp my ride please?!?!?? Good work man!
That's going to be a nice clean set up. Great work once again bro
Was disapointed you did not go through the door boots nor put any kind of sealant on the mdf.
Steve is nothing less then a beast!
Great video Steve don't forget to have fun!
Good job men 👌💯✌
