99 Jeep Install, Massive audio, JVC ect

Recommended Posts

Neato. I am starting to build appreciation for how much work goes into properly installing systems, however simple.

Nice simple install. I'd rather see something like this done with care, rather than a sloppy attempt at a wall. :)

good eye... it is a grand cherokee.. I didn't think to type in the "grand"

So I'm up bright and early to get busy. nothing better than going to bed at two a.m. and getting up at 6a.m. and getting to work.

I've gotta get this done so I can get my truck built.!

Sometimes I love the one amplifier solution. This install sponsored by Massive? ;)

The massive 5 channel does the job well.. It won't win you any bass comps but it's more than plenty of power on the single 12. Gives you a good shakin' :)

**the mid channels have the gain set super low... like 1/16-1/8 the sub gain is at 1/8... the whole setup is adjusted so when she turns the bass and volume all the way up nothing will distort or blow. I've adjusted that way because I know how teenage girls are. It sounds really clean with the volume at 2/3'rds and the bass at center. I just know she'll be toying with it.

as for sponsored by massive.. :) I happen to have a few massive items laying around. the install took some of my excess gear off my hands ;)

***off to finish it up.. need to clean up my mess, and clean the interior of the truck... she dropped it off super dirty..

Finished it up... Sounds GREAT!!

if you look at the vids turn down your volume---my camera really distorts... Don't worry the stereo doesn't sound like that

OK, today I built the subwoofer box, it's 2.8cubic feet tuned to 33hz. Took less than 2 hours from start to finish (Planning, cutting the wood, assembling and covering the box!!)

had to rewire some to make slack to mount the amp on the new box (I moved the amp a few inches)

the stock battery terms were junk so they had to be replaced, I used two AudioPipe adaptors--rewired and loomed the power and ground

so that is all... tadaaaaaa!! :)

about 26 hours worth of labor went into doing this.. just so you know :)

**I didn't really make much money on the deal.. I over did her budget so it cut into my profit.. I'd rather make less and get the job done right than skimp on some things.
