Time to upgrade the dash speakers on my 2022 WRX. I picked up a set of Infinity Reference 3032CFX 3.5" speaker that we will install and upgrade the old dash speakers. We will be using a dash speaker Subaru wiring harness to make the install much easier.

I also added 600 Hz (p/n 266-205 "inline high pass filter") bass blockers from parts express. Got 800 hz (p/n 266-210) too incase I didn't like the 600s. They only have a 6-dB/octave cutoff, so lower frequencies are still there, just more attenuated the further away from 600 (800) Hz you go. I was trying to eliminate bass wave interference and and reduce sonic load on the 3.5" driver....

My vehicle have 4 x 6.5's and tweeters as stock, been mulling over replacing them with infinity reference, the rear are easy replacement as they are coaxials, been thinking if i should just replace the front with coaxials also or separates, but since i don't like to fuss with the wiring much, is it okay if I don't use the crossover that comes with the infinity reference package (if i go with the option of separates), will it even work? Or go for the option of front and rear coaxials and stick with the stock tweeter?

I've watched all your videos on the mods to your '22 WRX. The ones you've done on the speaker upgrades are the best I've seen so far compared to what others have done. It's not high on my list of mods I want to do to my '22 right now but you've inspired me to make it a point to do something with the OE speakers this year. Now - if you find out that the increased base frequencies from your speakers help vibrate and dislodge any stray bits of RTV sealant trapped in your oil pan pick-up I'll move it up to the top of the list. 😏

Thanks for doing this series Josh. I copied your setup (using your affiliate links). Im usually happy with a couple good 6x9s and dont know what to look for when I order a sound system. I had the HK system in my Forester and took a car without the HK (didnt want a moon roof in FL). I still dont think the system is as good as my HK forester but its loads better than the base setup. The HK setup has to be more than just the speakers and a sub because I know they use lower grade speakers in them too.

@JDMRightHandDrive Жыл бұрын

I am glad you found the speaker install videos to be helpful. The reason the HK system has a higher quality sound is the factory installed amplifier. It is pushing a lot more power and has a sub. I appreciate your support with my channel.💪

I feel it is kind of lack in bass. What would be your recommendation on that?

@JDMRightHandDrive Жыл бұрын

If you go for these make sure you install the bass blocking capacitor that come in the box to prevent bass distortion. Glad to hear that you find my videos helpful. I have not looked into a subwoofer yet. I was thinking about installing an inline amplifier from the factory head unit. That would give around 45 watts per channel, which would be more that double the stock radio. That should improve the bass. I need to research it though and make sure it will work ok with the factory radio. Thanks for watching and have fun working on your new car.

Hey another great video. I picked my car last week and looking forward to swapping out the crappy speakers. Quick question, is 3.5” the max that will fit in that dash corner ? There’s no way you could fit a 4” mid range driver in there right ? Thanks !

Yes 3.5" is the largest that fits according to Crutchfield. The speaker pretty much covered the entire opening.

Unfortunately I cant ever seem to find audio settings that work good for the oem head unit. It seems like every audio source or different Pandora station has different audio values. I will get it adjusted perfectly for my Pandora heavy metal station and then I change to classic rock and there is no bass and I have to adjust the bass up. Same issues when I change to FM radio. I am constantly adjusting the bass and treble for every audio source for what genre of music I am listening to that day. I need to change out the factory head unit next. Just have not gotten around to it yet. I have owned a lot of new cars, this is in my opinion one of the worst functioning car stereos ever! The speakers do make a huge difference, I hope you like them. Thanks for watching.

Awesome video! The other day, I went to see what was under them grills for the tweeters and removed them. I noticed that the wires were pretty short and thought, OMG how am I going to change this out? The link to the harness adapters was very helpful! I think what I may do is put a pair of Infinity Kappa Perfect 300M's in the corners, then just punch a couple holes in the A-pillars for some component tweeters! I already replaced the front doors with JL Audio C5 6.5" components.

@Kylethemestupfile Жыл бұрын

So I have one concern with this. Do you happen to know how subaru wired this system from the factory? I would assume the dash speakers are in parallel with the front door speakers. If that's the case, i'd be a little concerned about the ohm load you are introducing, changing those tweeters to a full range.

I am not sure. Crutchfield shows on the website that these speakers are compatible with 22 WRX without HK system. I let them do the research and for me I decided to go for it.

@nathanblake123 Жыл бұрын

A key point for setting your bass and mid as well as treble- take note that most car speakers are mid range- the bass they will play is mid range - I’d suggest setting that around 3-4 , your bass can be a touchy one, keep it around 1-2 and the treble on this head unit for some reason is unbearably high , so the -2 is perfect , you could probably get away with having it at 0 at lower volumes.

@@gustavogo2915 all depends on what aftermarket parts you use. If you stick to stock amp and 6 speaker set up, even with aftermarket speakers, you wont get the quality of the HK which is i think 11 speakers including the sub? The HK likely had filters and crossovers, sending only certain frequencies to specific channels, so as to not overload any one speaker.

@JDMRightHandDrive Жыл бұрын

Do you have the base model? Also did you install the supplied bass capacitor that comes in the box with the Infinity Speakers. I know those will distort for sure with the bass going through them, it needs to be filtered out. I already had my front and rear Rockford speakers installed before I did the dash speakers. I am not sure that has anything to do you your system cutting out. Make sure your speakers are wired up correctly. The Infinity dash speakers impedance is matched to work perfectly only with the base WRX according to Crutchfields website. That is why I went with these speakers. Mine are working perfectly after I installed the bass capacitor in line with the positive speaker wire. Good luck, I hope you can get it sorted out.

Update: I got these Infinity speakers and the same connectors. I can verify that they fit, the wiring is PROPER, and the Ohm rating is close enough to 2 Ohm that it does NOT trigger the Starlink malfunction light. The tweets are a little diminished, so get the JBL version, if you want spicier tweets. They DEF. improved the front mid-range and clarity. I have Kicker KS 6x9 in the front doors and Fiatal Pro 6.5" in the rear doors. I have the fader set to 1 click to the rear to balance the power better to prevent clipping the front speakers.

I have not had any issues with distortion on my front or rear speakers. My dash speakers were distorting from to much bass, I installed the bass blocker capacitor and that issues was fixed. All my speakers are distortion free at max volume. Do you have the HK system in your car? Also in the stock head unit I make sure to turn off all the extra features like bass enhancer. Even at bass +8 my speakers don't distort. Make sure the wiring clips that slide onto the speaker terminals taps are tight. You might need to slip them off and give them a slight squeeze with some plyers to make sure they are snug when they slip back on. Hope you can get things sorted out. Good luck and thanks for watching my channel.

@@JDMRightHandDrive it ended up being that one of the speakers I ordered came damaged! - apparently one of them being off will throw off the entire system ! I’ve uninstalled the damaged speaker and all of them are back to working condition

how does it sounds? better than harman kardon?

@JDMRightHandDrive 11 ай бұрын

I dont have the bass that the HK system offers. But it does sounds pretty close to what I remember about the HK system. My entire speaker set up was only about $200.

Thanks for the info. After installing the bass blocker capacitor there work perfectly with no bass distortion.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eZuZp6tz1sqvcmg.html Update video for bass blockers. Make sure you guys install them when you put your speakers in, its an absolute must. 🤔Just a heads up everyone. While driving to work and turning volume above 30 I noticed slight distortion from the dash speakers. Quick fix, go into the audio setting into the fade/balance. Fade the speakers to the rear by 2. This seemed to fix the distortion. I will be soldering on the bass blocker capacitor supplied in the box to block out some of the lower bass frequencies. From the research I did, this will fix the distortion. I will have a channel update later on. Thanks for watching.👍

I got the same speakers from Crutchfield. Did you solder the resisters on? Mine have distortion as well. Didn't want to have to solder anything to make them work. Probly getting returned.

Mine didn't come with the resistors?

@nathanblake123 Жыл бұрын

They are actually crossovers and I’d highly suggest installing them - they help tell the speakers to play the correct frequencies- that way you don’t have a tweeter trying to play bass and blowing itself up or sounding like absolute trash

Pretty sure those are bass blockers being a 3.5” you don’t want to run them in full range. So you should 100% run the bass blockers.

@JDMRightHandDrive 10 ай бұрын

yes sir, I added those a few weeks later. Your right, the bass blockers are a must.

It's just so unfortunate that this is a thing in 2023. Other competitors in this class, vw, honda, and hyundai, are putting in bose and beats for under 40k CAD but the wrx you gotta be up at 45k to get the H/K system and convenience package. Aggravating

For the price (33k USD for my premium), I think it’s a pretty strong contender. Lots of power, and a lot more ready to be unlocked, AWD, great driving dynamics… Audio was not prioritized and that’s fine by me, as there are amazing people putting up videos like these that can hep you fix it! :) Plus, the pride in saying: “yeah it sounded awful at first, but I worked on it l, replaced all the speakers and listen to it now!”. Nothing beats it
