I just had to test this out on the bench BEFORE i committed to building an amp rack (when the amps arrive that is). I want to install it with confidence that i know it works and i know what i am doing. It sucks to sit in a hot cabin of a truck after installing something and spend hours figuring something out...especially if your wiring is all nice and clean. I feel good about this! Stay tuned for more updates! visit and follow my instagram channel instagram.com/meade916 for daily updates and live feeds! thanks for watching!

Just a heads up in case you didnt already know, the volume button on the CUE works better as a slider. Start at the middle and swipe right or left to adjust volume quicker than tapping or using steering controls..

I’ve had the twk in my truck for over a year, GUI interface is great, Tuned with a calibrated mic, hooked up an Apple WiFi to it through optical, pair it with an iPAD using soundman dash kit via Apple play, and it sounds crazy good

That is very impressive. Fiber optics is what I use in my home theater. Super clean sound. Even when you turned it up the sound stayed clean. I can’t wait to hear what those new mids and highs sound like. I need that processor.

@TheVenice05 6 жыл бұрын

Preparation is key and you're killing it (as always) brother. This build has me wanting to grab that DSP and run optical. Shoot...I smell a complete rebuild. Time to start putting away the $$. Can't wait to see how this build progresses. Really like how you're keeping everything stock looking and clean AF.
