Need Help? Let me know!!

[bigaudiofanatic]

So some of you may know me already from other forums and you may know now that I do very nice installs. For those of you that do not I am not your normal installer. I take pride and dedication every time I work on a car. I also do computer repairs and other electronics as well. If you need an install done or just have some questions just let me know. I travel up to 3 hours to meet someone for an install. I also will post my installs here showing my work. My aim is reimermatt. No question is to stupid to get answered.

[bigaudiofanatic]

Please feel free to comment.

Let's start talking that dash apart

Wires and Sat antennas

Had to carve out the back for the usb cord

[bigaudiofanatic]

Here is when it was all done. Most of you have seen these by now.

This one was a big one I will quote his review so you can read it.So Matt helped me install a kickass system in my 2008 Accord. It took a couple of days and a lot of driving but it was definitely worth it. Matt is a chill guy and we got along well right from the start.

I pulled into his driveway on Saturday morning a little before 8am and he had all of his tools and supplies laid out and ready to go.

We installed:JL C5-650 components in frontJL C5-650x coaxials in rearJL Slash 300/4v2 ampInfinity 10" BasslinkJL CleanSweepMTX Re-QDynamat Xtreme on floor, doors, rear deck and under back seat

We started off by stripping the interior of the car:

Then we jumped right into laying down the Dynamat .. here is the passenger's-side floor:

Door before Dynamat

Door after Dynamat

Fuse holder mounted

Cleansweep wired up, not yet secured

Amp being wired up

One of the rear crossovers mounted

Finished!!

Overall it took us about 25 hours spread out over 4 days (with breaks and stuff). Matt made the two and a half hour drive up to my place twice without hesitation. He did great work and I learned a lot along the way .. if you need any car audio stuff done, contact matt (AIM reimermatt), you won't regret it.

Here are a few older installs 97 Volvo 850. It was probably one of the more easier installs I have done. Here are some picks of the install.:

The loot

The wiring harnesses getting ready to be all soldered

The hole for usb port

The usb port

The sirius radio power plug lets mod it a little

Open it up

Solder it up

Heat shrink it all ready for being wired behind the dash after being wrapped in electrical tape.

Location of sat radio needs some mounting[/QUOTE]

[newI30owner]

what DIN radio is that in the 2nd install? looks great!

[headhunt3r]

I notice that Infinity Basslink in that Accord. Any comments on that? I'm considering getting one for myself, but haven't found any good reviews about it yet, or anyone telling me with confidence that it'll be a good purchase.

[bigaudiofanatic]

The bass link is not bad for what it is. It has a good sound and is compact most people believe that it is only one sub but there are actually 2 subs in it. It is not going to rattle your entire car or be heard for a quarter mile but it will produce some solid low fill for music. Sounded pretty good after setup and all.The head unit is a Kenwood DNX4160 the integrated GPS is made by garmin and the built in bluetooth is by parrot very good all around unit.

[EW]

All that JL and then a Basslink. LOL

[bigaudiofanatic]

LOL ya I know but we are planing on suing a dual 10 inch fiberglass box one sub on each side should be nice.

[Looneybomber]

most people believe that it is only one sub but there are actually 2 subs in it.

Most people believe that because it's true. It has one sub driver in it and one passive radiator.

Either way, welcome to the forum and keep up the good work.

[bigaudiofanatic]

Ya you are right about that but still sounded alright. More installs on the way.

[Looneybomber]

BTW, I am glad you're going the right way with the solder and shrinkwrap. I've seen too many "professional" installs with compression connectors.

[bigaudiofanatic]

Yep I only do things the right way. Thanks for the complements

[bigaudiofanatic]

So my dad owns a 2008 BMW R1200RT motorcycle and he hats the electronic controlled fuse system. If you over load the circuit that it is programed for than it shut power off to it BMW calls it cambus. So he wanted to be able to add whatever he wanted to the bike without worrying about that. So I installed an aftermarket fuse block that has both switched power and constant ones as well. Enjoy the pics!

[bigaudiofanatic]

Another install was done the direct link here " 'O8 CR-V Overhaul - Day One - Car Audio Forum - CarAudio.com " It was a 2008 Honda CRV came out great. I will not say much more as the customer "Adam" said most of it.

Directly from him

Today was the first day of my '08 CR-V's metamorphosis. With the help of forum member bigaudiofanati2 (Matt) - who I can't recommend highly enough whether you just need questions answered, want to hire for a build or to work along with and learn something at the same time while having things installed well (e.g. good solder skills, and methodical). We started with my car:

FROM: '08 CRV LX, with Pioneer DEH-7000BT I previously installed (together with bluetooth, external XM module, but everything else stock (speakers, no amps, no sub - blah blah sound with lots of road noise).

TO (so far):Alpine PDX-5 5-channel amp; Polk MM6501 6.5" component system for the front; Infinity 6032si 6.5" for the rears. Also, 3-bulk packs of Dynamat Extreme, Kicker 09PK4 4AWG amp wiring kit and Monster MPC I306 6-channel RCA cable. The sub-choice remains pending (but will be powered by the PDX-5) - as I'm still considering either sub-box location or some way of integrating a shallow-mount sub or the like in the truck (without buying a $$$ JL Stealthbox; I'd rather be a bit more unique/custom than that).

Well, without further adieu, here are some pics from Day One. The dynamating was all my work, so don't hold any faux pas there against Matt, lol. I'll leave it to him to reply and detail the considerations he has taken so far on the build.

[bigaudiofanatic]

All new speaker wire was ran to the speakers and to the new tweeters. The original plan was to build up a mount with wood and bondo the tweeters into the sides of the doors. "might still do" but we will first test the system with the stock locations and see how it sounds and go from there. It would look slick and would probably give him better imaging. As I said still up in the air. Tomorrow I will be working on the fuse mount for the crv and painting that. Than Friday we will get back together install the amp either under the seat or in another location. As we have said we are not sure what we are going to do about the sub yet but it will probably be a custom box build. Which I will look forward to. Other minor things will be remounting the blu tooth mic. the sad part about this is that the pioneer is already producing a low wine noise "always with pioneers" so I will probably ground the rca's and change the ground point see if that helps. Might be changing the head unit but that is up to Adam and what the turnout is. It is going to turn out to be a good setup.

Did the fuse block bracket

Fuse mount looks good. Up here in North Jersey, I continued with Dynamat. Today, I think it was seven sheets in the trunk. Here are some pics before and after.

Tomorrow, big things happening. PDX-5 amp which was finally delivered being installed, dynamat to the floors/liftgate, mount the crossovers, bluetooth mic, put everything back together again the ... yeah, listen to and tune it.

[bigaudiofanatic]

Drove down yesterday to continue work with Matt (after spending the day before putting in my trunk Dynamat, as shown above). Wrapped up everything nicely - Dynamat to the floors, amp installed, custom fuse bracket and sheet metal bluetooth mic bracket installed. The Alpine PDX-5 is awesome - so small and the verification sheet from the factory - well, a pic is below; obviously they severely underrate the powerhandling ability of them. I'll let Matt fill in any details from yesterday i'm forgetting. Again, can't recommend working with him highly enough. Learned a lot yesterday and his attention to detail is very significant.
