I got an 8" installed then realized I needed more so I sold it and now have the 10". Made a world of difference. I never crank mine to max setting. No need for it.. lol

I have two hs 8 in my carry and am very happy with the results, I did not use the supplied gain control, it did something to the bass signal and took bass away, I have been hitting them for three years now

Just done similiar in my 2022 MU-X and installed a JBL SL2, only difference is I took the speaker feed from the front two dashboard speakers, easy to take out and I soldered my subbox high level cables directly and fed them down into the footwells. I didn't want to fuse tap my rears and there are way too many cables in the MU-X to unravel in the first place. I also grounded to the seat but there is no bolt in the MU-X seats so I fitted a new bolt in one of the spare holes. The SL2 has audio sense so no need for a rem cable, only thing I find with the SL2 is that it doesn't shutdown for 10 minutes when no audio detected. Sounds amazing and a huge upgrade from the stock stereo setup! Thanks for your tips Adam, always helpful.

Good video man, But I think the bigger questions are around the beautiful example of the Nissan S15 in the background...

Thanks great video I was going to get an 8” but have now decided to go with a 10”.

Good Video, would be nice if there was a way to combine the controls so you only have one adjustment dial.

great video love that you installed 2 i have been looking at these for my truck to install behind my seat in the rear

Not sure if anyone has answered, but that bunch of black wires @ mark 4:00 with the collected crimp cap appears to be a multi-ground tap.

After i installed my subwoofer i found the sound quality better when i went into the headunits equaliser (EQ) ...from factory when purchased the headunits are always set on Flat and without Loudness switched on.

Great video mate....and nice install. (and the other one with the underseat sub into a Jeep was good too). I'm currently shopping for an underseat sub for my d/c Navara. Not looking for huge SPL (it actually ruins good music IMO). I just want to put some foundation under my Kenwood + Infinity component set up in the front. I have a couple of questions.... - How did you mount the remote gain controllers to the dash? - Given that you already had an aftermarket head unit installed, why did you choose high/speaker-level inputs instead of plug 'n' play "sub out" port or RCA's at pre-out level ? - Pioneer, Alpine, Cerwin Vega, Kicker, Kenwood, RockFos, Sony, JBL, Focal.....etc all make active underseat subs with 8" or 10" drivers. Was there anything special or different that made you choose the Kicker units? Was it just because they were on-sale? Do you think they perform better than some others, for similiar money? I'm having trouble narrowing down my short-list!

Nice Video as usual. Although Hookin up a powered sub into the rear speaker cables that are amplified from the headunit is not a good idea like this. It's actually tapping into and taking away power that should be going to the rear speakers. Should 100% be coming out of RCA's or sub output out the back of the unit that runs at line level to feed the subs that are powered.

Nice vid bud. I've just got the one in Mine and it provides LOTS. Enjoy the bass.

Nice explanatory video, thanks. A question: would leaving the rear speakers connected and connecting the sub in parallel to each of them work properly / be acceptable? Or is cutting-out the rear speakers the only valid / good option?

I just ordered one of those alpine pwe-s8. Was looking at these but got the alpine on sale for $210 havent gotten it yet but im hopeful

Hello friends, where can we tap the remote control connection (Blue wire) for the sub ?

The S15 in the back is so clean.

Awesome work mate, the real question is where is the video for the speakers ! The factory ones are woeful 😅

First time watching your videos... I turned away from video when it started and literally thought I was about to hear, .."And thi is Slapped Ham..." 😅😅 great video though!! Very informative!!

The box says this compact sub is only 180 RMS while that might be adequate, I think the Alpine compact sub is at least 100 RMS higher so not sure why you'd go with the lower RMS than spending the same amount of money and going with weaker RMS sub????

Thank you for this video and the sound test! Sound wise, would you prefer an under the seat subwoofer or a spare tire subwoofer, like the Jbl basspro hub?

Brilliant. Im a music type guy with bass. How much in total to spend including the double din? Please give me figure. Thanks and more power. Da bessssstttt.

Very nice sound man!

Hey Adam. Love the videos. It's been a while since you uploaded this and in wondering if you think it would be better to run 1 sub and have a amplified speaker set up or 2 subs and the speaker set up. Cheers mate

Nice Vid mate 🤙 just got one of those subs, what size conduit did you use?

Thanks for the video. We likely do the same. Do you think the head unit and sub upgrade is sufficient for a non audiophile or are you going to upgrade the factory speakers?

Hey mate, great vid. Question, where did you get those d'max door scuff plates? cheers

Must be able to hear you coming from a mile away - nice work! Any Velcro alternative ideas for us common folk with vinyl floors? 😝

Hi Adam, do you mind which video do you show how to get the cable through firewall to engine bay?

Quick question. Did you link the 2 subs together as far as wiring goes to go to the battery or where they wired separately with two inline fuses? Did you wire them as far as the output goes such left and right speakers tying them into the factory rear left and right speakers?

Gday mate, just seen that you have also used the pioneer slimline sub as well, now that u have used the kicker which one would you say is better? Obviously the kickers are more expensive but doesn’t always mean better

Thanks for sharing 👍😎

Just got one as a gift. Do you have to connect from each rear speaker ie left and right or can you just connect from one set the passenger side rear speaker. Looking forward to getting mine done and installed. Thanks

Can you wire them directly into the Head unit?

Hi. Love the video, but on my 2023 Dmax Xterrain there are two twisted pairs on the passenger side. Im guessing one is for roof speakers and one for back speaker. Will either pair be ok to tap into?

did you use Left F/R speaker wire for left sub and Right F/R speaker wire for right sub? Is that how I understand it? what if just doing 1 sub; would I need both front (or rear) L/R speaker wire? or can I use Right F/R if the sub sits under the right seat?

what is the amperage draw on a setup like that? I'm looking at putting a set under the couch in my RV but I'm not good with power

Good video really appreciate, fornme where or how should i connect the blue wire in the harness where do that ine goes i have s Toyota RAV4 '22 not sure where it goes ? Thank you,

Hi, thanks for the video, I have a pickup and the only place to put this bass is under the seat, I try with one bass it's OK?

Hey mate, awesome vid but I just want to confirm that with my 2022 dmax sx spacecab, i dont have rear speakers but I do have the red and white on my passenger side whereas my driver side there’s no red and white twisted but red and green, are they my driver side ones I connect too?

Hey bloke, which floor mats are those? I'm having trouble finding some for my d-max

Just a heads up when you unplug then reinstall, my 10 and my mates 8 but had dramas with the connector. One of my signal wire connectors was deformed so when I plugged it in, the male pin on the sub pushed the female pin in the plug out and was a pain in the ass to fix.

Hey Adam, Is it ok to hook up the power cables to that part of the positive terminal?

That's way too much power for me. I'm not going to be able to handle it, do they come in a 4in??

Hey there which underseat subwoofer do you recommend? I was thinking to get yhe jbl basspro nano but there are so many different subs like kenwood and pioneer.

Does the controller have to be connected as I really don’t want extra knobs. I’d rather always have them at 100% and control the levels through my headunit…

You don't need to run anything into the engine bay,you can just fuse tap these subs. There is also a factory earth point under each seat. If you lift the carpet up, you will see it,also, besides looking messy and being unnecessary, you should be careful running earths of the battery terminal in a vehicle with smart alternators

If you’re only installing one sub do you need signal from 2 stock speakers or just 1

is there a place where I can buy all of the wiring separately?

Awesome work mate 🤙 have just installed one but abit confused on the settings side of things ( gain/ bass boost etc. Am running just the factory head unit in 2022 dmax xterrain, what settings would you reccomend?

What if you also jam to hard rock like Metallica. Would these sound just as great when you don't hear Rap??

Wimbledon white, but the single stage tone not the dual stage. creamy white. I love it. dual stage is too yellow/almond color

Kicker hideaway are great while they work, driver has a design flaw that breaks of wire for speaker and speaker stops working and gotta send to kicker for $80 to repair

Would you recommend them for a Mazda Mx5 ND??

If you install two of these like in the video ¿Can you join the two in just one Bass Controller? to control both Bass levels with just one controller.

My question is, is it worth to get two or stick with one

So, what did you do with the blue wire? Is that wire unnecessary if the speaker is set to DC instead of +12?

Is one sub that much better than 2? Like, is it twice as loud? Or does it sound better?

So curious no amp is needed and did you get any metal rattle noise that you had to handle after a while of usage?

My kicker hideaway sub stopped working although the blue light stays on yet no sound? Installed at a shop on stock head unit with a loc any reason what it might be?

Hey mate I just installed 2 of these in my car and I now have a overload caution I can’t get rid of, any ideas?

Its possible to intall this sub with an epicenter???

Mine wouldnt work at alll, i had to use my blue wire for it to power up, haha even went to the shop and swapped my sub because I thought it was the sub lol

How did you connect the 2 subs together? Or are they ran totally separate wiring?

the left side panel had two white and red twisted wires I found out, cut the wrong one to begin lol

They must not be worth it if you can't find any videos with anybody that has them for a review.

Can you really call a vehicle ground an Earth ground? Debate!

Why did snip in half? Wrong thing to in car audio just use wire strippers to split cable not copper wire the splice the amp wire to the wire

Sounds like every Kicker I've ever heard. Not loud, not deep. Really flat.

Bad choice of songs , they seem bass less

If I have an amp and sub already installed but I want to downsize to save trunk space to this- could I keep my current power ground and signal? It’s an 8g wiring kit so still pretty small, if i could just plug and play it’d be pretty sick!

Those subs are useless, they are not proper. They are a joke, don’t come close to my 8W7, that I have in my center console.
