Nice video, I just installed a sub in my JL and followed your instructions. Worked perfectly. The remote turn on and high level inputs are exactly as you explained.

I also don't have the Alpine system and I agree that the factory stereo sounds really crappy. I was hoping someone would do an install like you did. I'm going to try it in my JL Thanks for sharing 👍

Nice job...I had the same base sound setup in my wrangler jl and initially added the jl audio 8" powered sub in the same location on the opposite side hooked up to a bass knob up front near the emergency brake. It filled in the bass, but the factory front and soundbar speakers aren't good. The key to getting it sounding good was making the speaker enclosures bigger to fit Hertz 5.25" components up front and 5.25" coaxials in soundbar powered by a 4 channel alpine pdr-f50 under the driver seat. To get a clean signal, all of this is ran through a jl fix 86 sound processor hidden under the steering wheel behind the plastic trim piece. I kinda wish I went with the bigger jl audio 10" 400 watt powered sub bc I have my input sensitivity at 80% and bass turned up all the way most of the time. One annoyance is jeep setup the bluetooth volume to default at volume level 15 and when the speakers are amplified, I manually turn down the bluetooth volume to 10 or so every time you make/receive a call or else it's too loud. Jeep needs to allow the radio to remember the last bluetooth volume level and stay on it. My system sounds better than the factory alpine, but cost more.

I iust ordered this exact JL Powerwedge+ yesterday but forgot to get the wiring kit. I tried using the link you have in the description but it won’t take me to the Amazon link. Can you tell me which wiring kit you used, I want wire this bad boy up in my 4Runner when the sub gets delivered. Great video and I hope it will sound as good as it did in the video regardless of how bad GoPro mics are, it sounded good with headphones on. 🤘🏼😎🤘🏼

Funny, I only watched this to see how you were supposed to hook up the speaker wires and you showed wires to two different speakers. Did you have to hook to the positive and negative to one speaker or both. Thanks
@MohawkDaveOffRoad
@MohawkDaveOffRoad 2 года назад
Positive and negative to both. Subwoofer has a dual channel input in order to process the bass from left and right channels.

Hey man, why didn't you go for a ported box. My sound system guy recommended this for my jeep because when I decide to take the top off, the sealed wouldn't be able to deliver the same bass as the ported.

Do you have a picture or video of how you connected the wires from the soundbar to the subwoofer? and a picture of the connections to the amp?
@christiangsusrocks
@christiangsusrocks Год назад
the wires from the soundbar go to the amplifier not the subwoofer. You connect rca wires to the soundbar which runs to the amp. then the amp to the subwoofer.

I have a different powered sub but I’m guessing the install is th same. I have the 7 inch base. By tapping into the sound bar speakers does this mean you don’t need to add a LOC?
@christiangsusrocks
@christiangsusrocks Год назад
you only need to add a loc if the current coming from the soundbar speakers is more than your amplifier input can handle.
@christiangsusrocks

Technically yes, you would connect to the mid range not the tweeter. For best sound quality I would recommend something like the Pac4 amzn.to/3mEV8Cn
@parall4x
@parall4x 5 лет назад
did you have any complications with the factory head unit cutting sound to the sound bar because the impedance is different with the amp in parallel? i guess not?
@MohawkDaveOffRoad

No issues, as the amp only reads the signal.

Hey man I was thinking about installing an amp with a subwoofer. I called Best Buy just for some advice they told me that the uconnect system will not work with the high input. They said you have to add a ceramic capacitor or something like that is that true?
@MohawkDaveOffRoad
@MohawkDaveOffRoad 5 лет назад
Works like a charm. No capacitors needed of any sort. Good luck, Best Buy install bay is a joke. I've had them build a 9000w soundsystem with a custom show enclosure in my Durango years ago. And they hacked the crap out of it. They used Bondo to seal the boxes too.... well bondo lasted 2 days with 9000w of subwoofer.... long story short stay away.

@@MohawkDaveOffRoad Thanks for all your answers. My Rockville sub (built-into the speaker housing) has a POS, a NEG and a REMOTE power input - is the REMOTE input where I run the cig lighter remote wire to? (obviously I still need power and ground wired too - correct?) And what gauge wire should I use?
@MohawkDaveOffRoad
@MohawkDaveOffRoad Год назад
@@detroitmannc that is exactly correct. You don’t need a heavy gauge wire for the remote. Thin gauge works great as the amp is only using it to sense voltage and there is almost no load on that wire. Good luck.
