Every man and his dog has seen a mid fitted into a door so taking the time to do the IB install and document it here is the best thing you could have done as for a lot of us we didnt know that something like that was possible. Anyone seeing this should watch the whole 9 episodes as its a great guide, and tutorial in how to get a great sounding stereo for a reasonable price. I do understand that cutting the car will put a lot of people off but it shouldn't as it really isn't as bad as it looks.

GUYS TRUST ME . SIGN UP TO HIS PATREON . like peter said you will learn so much !

Omg every time I think about an sq car I think about earls bmw. So funny you brought that up. That car was on another level. I actually had the honor to sit in that car in the drivers seat. He ran a looney toons cartoon demo and the road runner ran right across the dash. It was mind blowing.

Master fabrication is never boring I love watching pros work Great job guys

I love your videos man, I wish people under sound quality more, I'm not fully sq myself but I love SQL

Love this content Peter thank you. I keep preaching this IB method in the kicks for the best SQ. No rattles in the door and amazing low end that I didnt get in doors.

This was fantastic- highly considering this for my personal, possibly for subwoofer too. Love it

dont know how I Havent seen this channel yet. great work !!

Some people want everything for free. You guys do amazing work. Hopefully someday I can get to hear one of your cars.

You're an inspiration with my future build

I think you Do Amazing work 👍👍

I don’t know why every one gives you a hard time about the way you mount the mid bass. But what your doing is nothing new. But when I was in high school I remember reading a car audio magazine article in study hall. The article was talking about someone that built a 93 or 94 Cadillac Eldorado. A brand new car at the time. Any how, he mounted 2 12” Diamond Audio pro Audio mid bass in the kicks the way you did except the cone faced you instead of the magnet. Made a custom painted grill to hide them. If I remember right it was either 5-1/4 or 6-1/2 in the dash and horn compression tweeters under the dash. He used 10” mid bass installed in the rear side panels don’t remember what those where and 6-1/2 and tweeters in the rear deck. For SQ competition he used a 10” Infinity Kappa mounted in a metal box installed flush mount in the passenger floor just in front of the seat hidden by the floor mat. For Spl competition there was a separate subwoofer system activated by a hidden toggle switch in the center console. In those days they where pushing the sale of this material called MATT. It was some kinda mesh screen material that was mounted to the back of a subwoofer box 📦 that was built just barely bigger than the subwoofer it’s self. This guy cutt out the whole center of that structure panel and brace that was right behind the rear seat. Then he made a baffle panel and mounted it with screws and windshield glue inside the car. He installed 4 12” Infinity Kappas ,gutted all the foam out of the rear seat to promote more air flow. In the trunk he made a frame some where around 6 to8” deep then put this MATT material on the back. Then to cover up the ugly he made a baffled panel and flush mounted the cross overs and full range amps. Under the rear deck he made what looked like a dresser styled with 2 motorized drawers that rolled in and out by remote. Each drawer held 1 of the subwoofer amps flush mounted and fans installed on the back of the drawers The Cadillac emblem he put on the front of that rack made it look really unique. I remember this article so well cause at the time I was really into Infinity Audio. But Also that install was so out rages so crazy yet when stealth mode other that the Alpine head unit, you couldn’t hardly tell there was an audio system in the car and there was lots of trunk space. With the factory tinted windows you couldn’t see the deck any way. You would think that the way he cut that car up, it would be a weakened piece of Swiss cheese 🧀. Yet the car maintained structural integrity and it passed the safety inspection was tagged and insured. This guy had a daily driver brand new car cut all to hell to make way for this wild ass in stall did nothing but take home trophies. During sound quality compilation this guy played classical or orchestra music 🎶 in those days cars where stolen quite often just for the audio systems so stealth installs was the name of the game. They guy was praised in the article for cutting up a brand new car. A Cadillac at that. It took serious balls to just hack away. Personal I think that anyone giving you a hard time, is only doing it cause they are scared to do it them selves.

Hey, 14 k ... congrats dude

my ¨spl¨/ SQL car was about £2600 or about €3100 and when i bought all the gear in my car #b2audio and i was thinking i got to a really good price, (my girlfriend doesn't think the same way ) really liking your videos and looking forward to se all your crazy installs and builds

I enjoyed that, very good ! will make a point of listening to the car when i come down :)

Peter. Great job buddy

Very good job explaining the Theory of why have Average! Bang On Peter! ja ja ja OORAH Semper Fi and Can Do

Mmmmmmm......have to look at my ute. 4 way front stage.....definitely have rattles on the doors even with 4 sheets of deadening, think it's from the window cables 'twanging'. It is my forever car and yes here in Australia the rules are pretty strict about cutting. 🤔🤔😁 Sound quality all the way. Thank you.

I had a demo yesterday. Thanks Pete. I was wondering should I do IB or sealed boxes in front. After what I heard, I will do IB. Absolutely mind blowing result! I don't care about potential issues like road noise, moisture etc. It is worth!

it's true! Thanks Peter

I remember that bmw and it looked factory and sounded incredible

Nice job

Definitely buying something cheap to drive and you don’t care about makes a system easier to get to a pinnacle of performance 😎 I did that one as Peter well knows! 🙃

awesome trim rings

So true so true I was thinking about that BMW

I cant see myself cutting my baby up. And as I was watching you make that hole I was wondering about road noise too, so nice of you to address it. I'm gonna have to stay in the doors, though.. I'm sure it will be an absolute joy anyway.

I feel your pain. People don't always understand the fact THERE IS NO FREE LUNCH. I'm not afraid to cut or permanently alter vehicles and most people I've done work for aren't scared either. (Untill they know the cost)

Nice work Peter. Reminds of the E class mid bass install…

Ever since you’ve shown the mid-bass speaker IB installs in the kicks, I wish I had the time and energy to try it. I installed my 3-way mid-bass driver in door factory locations, added pvc panels to “enclose” the door cavity, plus strategic sound deadening, and I still get rattles that annoy me in delicate songs… it’s a never ending battle trying to fix these rattles. You guys have amazing solutions🙌🏼

Interessante nesse acabamento q eles acabam cortando própria lataria do carro

Only certain cars I would do midbass in the doors. Todays cars, the doors are built like tin cans. If you're ever needing sub bass performance from a midbass driver for whatever reason, try the Audiofrog GB60 if you have not. I got an in-car IB response down to 38hz and they love it and sound excellent. Surprisingly, these things have 9mm 1-way linear Xmax.

Been going through all your videos after seeing you guys at NY500 I have a t4 and want to know where is the best place for my front mids?

And he used tube driver amps, I remember that Install

@10:50 Tool Tips? What tool did you use to start the round section? It looks like you switched and finished off with a jigsaw? I have $1,730 US in mine, but I plan on investing more. Appreciate you sharing your work as always!

Would be cool if yall had merch for sale

hello bro. please tell me that which capacitor is used with microprecision 5.20 tweeter for play them active

Yeah that system is not expensive at all. My set has focal flax 3 way active, arc audio arc 1000.6, helix mkII Pro processor, and sub and amp and parts on that system is like 4k usd.

ib king:)

Can i use just one midbass but two midrange , two tweeters abd one subwoofer?

It would be interesting to see if you can build an underseat enclosure and speaker combo that will work better than the Focal, that would fit under most seats.

I have $30 silver flutes and $40 vifa silk dome and an 80prs and it sounds so good. Do you know how to use REW with the umik-1?

K da hora o acabamento

Can you please post link to the rainguard foam you use would love to try this

When installing the mids inverted, do you have to reverse the polarity? Since they are facing the opposite way.

Did you have any pictures of the midbass installation once completed?

Being that the cone is facing down, are these midbass drivers wired out of phase? Thanks

While driving, the mid bass speaker that plays inside the car will be louder because of the wind that pushes it inside the car. Won't there be resistance when the membrane returns because of the resistance of the wind while driving. In ib

Me gustan mucho sus instalaciones me gustaría traducción en castellano gracias

Woot

Like usual, a delight to watch. But why not placing the grill with the fenders upward? The wheel is throwing mud down to up. I bet those vents get some mud from the road 🤔 Not worrying about moisture on the speakers..because that.s no problem..the door is like a pool sometimes 🤣 but just for the idea of getting mud overthere between the fins

I would love to do an IB midbass setup in my current build (1993 Chevy Indy Pace Truck). My concern is the music's sound level outside the vehicle, either when driving around or when doing a demo. I would love to see a video of what the car sounds like from the outside at demo levels, with doors closed and windows up. With a single cab pickup, space is at a premium and doing IB would make a HUGE difference.

Hi Peter! Have you ever thought to milkshake a whole door?😉 I wonder what result it would produce..

Micro-Precision 5.16 midbass, looks like the Steg Q65c midbass

36:08 €2500 is very fair for a budget system considering all the gear went into the vehicle. The real investment, or price, will be installation time and tuning I would imagine? Around €1500 retail value for mine, can't find what the Helix B4 would've cost. Though still missing the midbass drivers. Still have to figure out a midbass solution so I am very thankful for these videos and will be subscribing to your patreon as time, budget but mostly weather allows me to do the install. Thank you Peter. Most of it is second handed gathered cheap over the last 5 years as budget allowed, €970 spent on the gear from my own pocket. Might have to purchase the HEC module adding another €120 as I'm unable to measure in REW with a chinese BT to S/PDIF receiver. Peiying PY-1K76D connected to 2 Focal P30F's Helix B4 connected to OEM speakers wired active, Focal 100CV in dash soon™ Helix DSP Mini Focal Solid 2 connected to the midbass, eventually And once budget allows I will be upgrading the DSP to an 8 or 10 channel model to run the 100cv active on the B4 and Solid 2 dedicated to midbass, possibly a center channel on the dash. The 6channel DSP will make its way to my home office 👍

My 2 way active with 2 subs ran abt 2k in gear, and I consider it a budget system. Id say 3 and under in equipment (not install) is still budget.

About money , i think 2.5 k in a sound system can look to much but av seen people spend more an have a really bad result doing themself. So for my thought it’s a reasonable price if the result it’s in a great sound system. for me it’s rta and eq settings the limit .

Hey Peter, when you sealed up the primary cover in the wheel well with the hot glue gun, I noticed it’s black. What’s the product used? I know auto body seam sealer will work well.

well, for this suzuki ib kicks seems most cheap best solution. only guess why i dont do it, we have heavy winter and all the road noise comes thru that speaker

I ordered some “PA speaker grill” and it didn’t work. I tried to pour water some water on it and it went right thru it 😢

Pete - would you be willing to consult me on my build? Do you offer that service?

Uma dúvida ai porque cortar a lataria do carro, alguém poderia explicar melhor ?

I have $3500 in mine and, although it's the nicest sounding system I've had, I wouldn't call it a SQ setup. I'm just using the very limited DSP built into my head unit on 2 ways in factory locations with passive tweets. I've deadened the crap out of everything and I still have plenty of resonance that drives me nuts. I'd call €2500 a bargain for sure, but is that counting the time and materials you've put into installation?

What year is this Suzuki Swift?

Is steg the best?

You should stop with this instalation of midbas as I do not want to cut my car. Anyway tomorrow I will check if I have enough space in footwell :)

Nice install but what about the wind force will that affect the performance of the cone movement and while driving on rainy days on water logged areas water won’t go inside the drivers?

I am curious how much does it cost that "cheap" system?

I love your woofers/mid bass in the kicks but its not practical if I have to drive through inches or water on a regular. For someday of us it’s not practical. Maybe someday I’ll have a car that I won’t have to drive in shitty weather.

Not sure about this sort of fitting ....as for speakers getting wet inside doors your obviously refering to german cars by far worse for leaking water in to car....

Where is your shop lads?🙌

Have you seen the rebuild going on of Earls red BMW?! search CarMiZa
