customer is ROCKING OUT in his car.. there' no better indication of what you did than him absolutely JAMMING in the car as you make this video. that's got to feel so good. outstanding Peter!!
Very good to see people get the install they deserve. Too many shops not delivering but I'm glad he is happy and can spread the word in France. Not everyone has loads to spend but it shows a nice modest system can sound great.
I've done several low-budget systems for people that sounded great. Under $100 in one case, using a combination of used and new components. My current car, I've got less than $1,000 in the system, and most people are blown away how good it sounds. *in all fairness, I have a good deal of "sweat equity" invested
I'm the same way. You can do it for a low total gear cost but if I ever factored in even my hourly wage while at work the cost would be astronomical! hahaha
That’s very true. I basically had to ask away until they said yea we can do that, and I was wondering why they didn’t tell me how much a DSP is a game changer. Thanks to your videos I have a better picture of what my car needs and checking frequency band to know the system’s weaknesses. Great video!
so many examples of poor installs and shops that do poor work and are happy to take your money. Is no surprise that people are turning to DIY. Your FB and Patreon channel (especially) is one of the few places where this information is readily available. Anyone can build a decent system if they want to with the help of your vids. Thanks for making this possible...
I know what my system needs, a fancy new dac board for my zapco dsp :) and a couple days down at the new shop you have, cant wait to come back for more choppy chop
I'm in this same sort of dilemma now myself, deciding what to do next with my system and I'm leaning towards midbass upgrade in the doors as I know it's one of the weaker areas. I already have a fully active 3 way front end with a pillar builds using micro precisions and helix dsp with gordon tuned PG titanium amps and 12w6 subs. I have a spare gladen 1800,1 monoblock sitting on a shelf which could be installed to for one mono block per sub but honestly, one 1800.1 is more than enough bass for 2 jl w6s. I like the idea of changing to the helix subs but just couldn't spend that much right now. I also have a spare PG zx350 that could be used on the tweeters to see if it gives any better seperation/headroom than using 2 channels of a 4 channel amp. I've already got stacks of headroom though with a titanium 1000.2 on just the mids and a 4 channel, upgraded, zx450v2 on midrange and tweeters. I could use the zx450 bridged for the midrange only and the zx350 on just the tweeters. complete overkill in my opinion though to go down that road. There's also no shops local anywhere to even get a listen to anything else, let alone an unbiased opinion on kit. It's the same game its been forever that dealers will push their brands (I can understand it and dont begrudge it) but it just narrows the options. Should I go for scanspeak discover midbass despite QTS values, or micro precision 5 series mids, or go for JL ZR 8" mids or...... fill in the blanks.
When you said 38.30 That - If someone has stuck,... million miles away... I felt like u were talking about me 😄😄 Yes here shops are not nice, I brought zapco Z seires amp and helix DSP AND ppls say its waste of money😅
Thanks peter for this great video…it’s always a pleasure to see a simple setup with great tuning sounding great. Do you have the ref of the sb acoustics subwoofer?
Great video Peter. Enjoyed the watch. 👏🏻 What software do you use for your DSP mate? I’m assuming it’s Room EQ Wizard, I’m still a beginner on this software.
Love your work an what U stand for as a installer.i have also been stung by bad installers I want to up grade my system once again but a bit concerned again about being ripped of as I spent thousands on the first install an know want to spend more once again .I'm watching an learning as much as I can from your videos the more knowledge I can get the better choice I can make keep up the good work
Pete you are awesome brother. I do my own installs. I would love your computer software, I use Term Pro with an RTA mic. But I like the way your software is laid out.
Hello, why are you always tuning your sound with a linear frequency response? After all, hearing is not linear, especially at different volumes. I'm trying to figure out the intricacies of the setup, but I haven't figured out a target curve for myself. Thanks.
@@jackdaniel9547 i know that many crazy systems are built over there, they can make them look flashy, packed with tonnes of uber expensive gear, but most of them have limited knowledge of optimal speaker installation, but who cares about the actual results when they look 👀 nice, right?! 😃
Nobody would give a sh.t about me talking to my phone after they sit back into their cars when it’s retuned! They just want to go through all their songs! I’ve done it several times and they never paid attention to what i was doing at the meantime. Plenty of these first impressions have been shared on TH-cam and Patreon too.
@@pssound9749 on the other hand, you can’t blame him. I’ve watched the whole video and the improvement you made for him. Nice tuning result seeing the basis 👍

Great video Peter. What you say about having a reference point is so true, even for DIY.
Very cool to help him learn from his efforts. I bet he enjoyed it.
Good to be in a position to fix and help.

Been watching you for a while and I'm considering getting Patreon.
I am a late comer to patreon. I wish I knew about it before. learn so much from the in depth content and behind the scene material. highly recommended

Please check the tuning playlist.
hey peter. which ab acoustics sub did you had in your honda.
After I eq my speakers what is causing me to get peaks when I sum them
hello piter, if the speaker polarity is correct. Does the DSP system need to change the phase of each speaker channel?
It’s also dependent on time alignment and relative phase between Xovers, so yes, sometimes you have to flip polarity electronically too.
Good as always ………. Do you know any one in Singapore that can do REW.
No idea. Unfortunately tuning is more complex that just “reading REW”.
