Front stage amplifier is mounted and rca's ran to the DSP.

Part 1 of license plate deadening
-
Got her tinted this morning with 5% ceramic tint all the way around. Mounting temporary front stage amp, since my backseat is 22 inches long I'm going re look at amps and see what I want over the Crossfire 4 channel I been over lately.
-
Speaker wire is ran on both sides of vehicle as well as the 2/0 welding power cable run. I just need to find grommet with some room or drill my own whole out
-
Speaker wire being ran on the passenger side, 16 gauge for horns and 14 gauge for mids. All Knuconceptz OFC wiring.
-
Power wire being ran on the driver side, 2/0 welding cable.
-
Sound deadening is complete and the trunk is all buttoned up. Thanks to @Second Skin
-
I'm 80% done with the sound deadner, the trunk deck is next. I didn't do the under side yet because I don't feel like uninstalling the factory subwoofer till it blows or until my new Fi sub gets here. Doors will be next.
-
I'm finished for the day. Just need to get the spare tire area finished and she will be done.
-
The right side is complete with deadner.
-
The left side is complete with deadner.
-
All shiny and clean after the denatured alcohol treatment.
-
Sound deadening has began
-
Thanks Nem glad to see you man. What have you been tinkering with lately?
-
Wiring process has begun, DSP is mounted and backseats are out.
-
Thanks Randal I appreciate it man.
-
I will probably take this car to the shop to get some work done if I don't feel comfortable attempting it on my own. But I will try and get my hands dirty first before I go that route. I also need to find how to hook my AudioControl DSP to the factory setup. Stay tuned fellas.
-
Some of the equipment from the previous build and wires since I always buy extra to have. Enclosure should be done either this week or next week and Im still waiting on the sub but no biggie until I get the trunk deadened.
-
So far this is what the system will consist of, mids may change if I can't get the 8s to fit but we will see. I will use 2/0 welding cable for all main power/ ground runs, Knuconceptz wire for amps' power/ground wires and their speaker wire too. Second skin deadener for trunk and speaker tweeker pads in all 4 doors. I have some Soundskin speaker rings that I'll be using for my mids.

Slow build, but wanted to get a build log going.
-
Thanks fellas. If I did do another build log it would be pretty fast as I already have all the equipment so I may still post one here as well.

Bad HU or RCA cables?

What DSP? 9 times out of 10 it's the DSP. They are install and vehicle dependant.. just because it's the DSP doesn't mean the DSP is bad just a bad choice for your car or setup. Ive had the same problem with 3 different Dayton DSPs to turn around and have no issues with my Audio Control 6to8. -
Build log is officially done, car has been deemed a total loss after a truck with a trailer swerved right in my lane. Sucks but I guess on to another car with another build, since it's so quiet here I may not even post on the forum. But who knows, everything is out of my Sonata besides the NorthStar under hood battery, Pioneer double din and main power wire run. I will get those out tomorrow. The crazy part about all this is, I just got back from being in Cali for a week, accident happened in less than two hours after getting off my plane.
