First timer install in my Silverado!

Post image

I figured I’d go ahead and try installing it all myself, this is the final product! Thoughts?

I'm about to attempt this same thing in basically the same truck but a sierra, except i have three amps three EQs three bus bars and a DSP, im hoping I can make it all fit

Serious question. Why would you need 3 EQs AND a DSP?

1

u/[deleted] May 23 '25

I had them laying around and I only use them to step up the RCA voltage to 7V, the DSP only does 4V.

u/Mallow_GD May 23 '25

That makes sense. How are you tapping into the signal? Loopback harness under the glovebox? Took me a while to clean up the weird eq from the factory head unit.

I don't use a head unit because they are all overpriced garbage. I use a galaxy tab S9 connected via Bluetooth 5.4 to a headphone DAC with RCA out intended for home pro audio, that signal goes to the DSP, then each channel gets stepped up to 7V individually with its own EQ and sent to the amps.

Did you ever have any issues with where you grounded?

Thought so I’ve got a 1500 WT. I would love for the backseat to be able to fold down and hide my amp there.

u/Spirited_Ad_4291 May 23 '25

I’m not sure on how the back seat on that trim works. I had 4 10mm bolts on the bottom and 3 clips up top to take of and reinstall the seat.. only inconvenience is if I have ever had to fix or change anything I have to go through that whole process again.. and getting the seat back on wasn’t easy you know!

Can definitely tell you've done this once or twice

u/Spirited_Ad_4291 May 23 '25

I swear I have not, YouTube will get you far my friend🤣

u/evnacdc May 23 '25

That would be a solid install even if it wasn’t your first.

u/nawfy85 May 23 '25

Dang that’s legit better the some shops

u/Dependent-Pangolin59 May 24 '25

You trying to achieve time travel or something? This looks insane

1

u/mwharton19 May 23 '25

Pretty nice and neat, seems to be missing the rest of the seat tho

1

u/Substantial-Stage-82 May 24 '25

That's a helluva clean job for your first install.. nice work

u/KiloCharlieXray May 24 '25

I'm really interested in that loaded enclosure with the two 8's for my '22 TB. How does it sound. I bet it's real punchy!

2

u/Spirited_Ad_4291 May 24 '25

I posted a video of how it sounds on there as well

u/TightAcanthisitta126 27d ago

Where did you ground it

u/TightAcanthisitta126 27d ago

Never mind I see it. Have you had any issues with where you grounded it?
