Hey Ray! Love your videos! I have a question for you or anyone who’s doing this specific install. First some basics info: 2015 c300 4matic. (I think thats w205..) Kicker mono sub amp rated at 400 RMS. LC2i line out converter 10” JLw03 as recommended in wedge enclosure Question 1: Reading up on the wiring gauges I found you could wire this single amp with 8 AWG for about 7-10 feet. While I think its always safe/wise to run 4 AWG I’m curious to know if it’s would be ok to use the 8 AWG amp kit I already own? Also, do you have to add in the the line out 12v as a draw on that wiring? AudioControl recommends 16 AWG for their products. Question 2: did you need to take audio feed from both sides of the car? I’m hoping one side of the rear stage will do the trick. Thanks! Love the videos! I’ll share photos/video when I’m done!

Nice set of videos for this type of install. I have a '10 E550 coupe and I did go through Visual Ice for my enclosure. I was impressed with the quality and turn around time from ordering. I plan to do my install this spring. The one question I have that was not covered is. Did you leave your factory Sub hooked up or did you "dq" it and just run the JL? I also heard that the newer HK sys7 sub is DVC. do you know if this true? Thanks in advance.

Hi I know this is old but helped me with setting up bass in my E class. Thanks to you for sharing the contact I now have a custom box built by a pro. I went with a JD amp which is able to take speakers wires but problem with that is my factory speaker voltage is almost 12volts at higher volumes and the amp can take upto 8volts safely so to combat this I’ve bought me an LC2i. The factory stereo EQ controls the bass level coming out from the sub and so hopefully accubass should overcome this issue for me. Did you select the hi or low on the amp for input?
@RaymondUrias
@RaymondUrias 3 жыл бұрын
Low. Higher voltage coming in is because the E class has amplified speakers. Make sure you pulled the source pre amp. If you pulled from the amp your gain setting are going to be wack

They can grab the signal from there. if that's what they were doing then I don't understand why they bothered using an lc2i they should have just gone straight to the high level inputs for your subwoofers amplifier. That particular subwoofer should hit very hard! if it's not then there is probably a tuning issue and the gain needs to be adjusted.

LC2i is up to you. It fills in the lack of bass in the low volume range and takes stress off the amplifer. What amp are you using, mine is out dated they have gotten much smaller since this video.

+1ELiMusic if you have the H/K there is a factory Amp. You could have that swapped out for a new unit that runs more efficient. You will have to run a new power to that location. From there you have a choice if you want to change the wires going to the door or keep the factory ones. In my opinion the factory wires are very good and can handle up to 60ish watts. It's definitely something you can do and you DONT have to give up your spare tire. You can make a amp rack under the passenger or drivers seat and put the amp there. Same for the Sub you can put the amp in another location and run the wires to the sub.

LC7i is a beautiful and the signal summing really cleans up the sound.Go behind your radio and use stinger speed wire to connect to your factory colors and hook them into the 7i then from the 7i to your amps. Then run new wires to your doors. It's a bit of work but totally worth it to have the best sounding ram!

@RaymondUrias 6 жыл бұрын
+bart hill you actually have a few options Cheapest- Go into your sound settings in the radio and increase the aux level Cheaper- Make sure your aux device volume is all the way up when plugged in Cheap- Download an AP on your phone called "Boost volume" and readjust your phone settings Fair- Buy an auxiliary input amplifier they are anywhere from $25-60 Expensive- Upgrade all your door speakers and amplify the entire car audio

@barthill9578 6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your time, I am going to try the aux input amp but if it doesn't do the job then I will get a amp I seen at a stereo shop, it's $150 and If it needs a audio controller gona go with the LC2i. On a side note I have a 2004 Ford Ranger that has a Sony stereo w/built in amp that was purchased at Wal-Mart for around $100 I think and it sounds amazing, base, super high volume, crisp sound it's unbelievable, well anyway thanks again for your help your video was the most informative that I've seen for this kind of car.

You need some sort of line output converter. If you're going to buy one why not buy the best one. This one can take the load off your main amplifier so you don't have to set the gain so high increase the lifespan of your sound system and make it sound better

Maybe a dead battery check using a voltage meter. I don't know what you did to your car, recheck all your connections and make sure you didn't unplug something. Depending on the age of your car you ESL could have gone bad.

Please don't use a multimeter to tune with. Too much risk for clipping and blowing a sub. Use a distortion detector or an oscilloscope for precise, quality/SAFE tuning. Check out Steve Meade Designs for top quality tools. You won't be disappointed.
