Looking at the manual, looks you are going to be just fine!

I would set it up this way:

Sub - LPF 80Hz
Midbass - HPF 80Hz- LPF 5kHz
Tweeter - HPF 5kHz LPF Pass

Here is the LINK for the manual

Ok, showing off the car to a complete Bus it's not a good idea.

But let me know if some thing works for you.

I have printed the manual today...I will read it in the bus while we are going to Boston :D

Thank you Derick!!

I am out until sunday!!

Have a nice week guys!!


BTW I have molded the trunk for fiberglass...Ill give it more layers next week :)

[talnlnky]

why the polyfill stuffing behind the deck? Seems like that would increase the temperature of the deck, and any other electronics in that area.... Electronics don't like heat. I've got a denon deck with no internal amp that only has a 2amp fuse and it still gets hot when i play cd's.

I doubt the stuff does any amount of sound deadening if tha'ts what you are going for.

Agree!

See that black heat radiator (heat sink) in the back of the HU, I bet is looking for fresh air.

I had put it to see if it does make a difference because I had already seen it on Derick's thread...

I think it changes nothing...

[packetrace]

I started tonight the deadending progress...



Do I put enough ?

I didn't use any polyfill over there, I did put a layer of CCFoam (for vibrations) and a heat barrier above the HU under the air ducts and above the air ducts. In summer the sun heats the dashboard pretty hard, also on top added a few peaces of foam to get rid of a rattle under the speedo cluster.

Yeah that's more than enough, but what really is going to make a difference since you will have a sub i the trunk is to cover with a layer of MLV all the floor, wheel wells and side panels, other wise you will end up with a HUMMM from the trunk.

And leave at least one drainage just in case!

And don't forget to make a chamber for the air vent, that is where most of the direct road noise gets into the cabin, you can do the following test now that your trunk is naked, lower your rear seats and drive on the high way, listen carefully while switching back and forth the air from circ to outside, you will hear the chamber open and close.

Watch out! The fuel tank calls in that area...

[packetrace]

I have left a drainage :D

I'll check it for the air vent...

And...I have tried to get the back seat out....what a pain!!!!

I have stopped before I commit suicide!

[packetrace]

This afternoon I fired up the amplifier!!!

Wow!!! It makes a huge difference already!

For now I have only the Mids..which are actually the Pionner premier 6.5''..

Tomorrow I will wire and fire the L1v2! I will just drill a big hole in the a-pillar for now..Somewhen I will do like Derick did...put the tweeter in a plastic bag and put bondo under it to fit the tweeter on the a-pillar...

I can't wait to hear the L1v2 running!!

I haven't choosen a subwoofer for now...I am tempted by the Alpine type-r...

[why?]

alpine subs are totally insane. Make sure you want crazy SPL, because Alpine dishes it all up. Honestly I think Type R might knock you unconscious in a car as small as the Yaris.

I remember that, I hit the roof with my head so hard (and loud) that I had to go up stairs and check the kids. LOL

It's a pain for sure.
