Wiring connections Please take the time to do it right the first time 🙏🏼
Here at Nvs Audio we solder all our connections or use a hydraulic crimper and also solder . Having a poor wiring connection is a stupid reason to have the customers equipment or shorten it’s life span . Poor connections cause a drop in voltage and a spike in current draw that creates heat .
People don’t realize that it take 200 amps of current for 10 seconds to blow a 100 amp breaker or fuse !!!!!!! If you are having a blow fuse issue or a breaker that keeps tripping please check your wiring . Make sure it’s proper gauge ofc copper and make sure all the connections are solid.

I feel so good about myself now. Crimpers, ferrules, connectors, heat shrink... I rescued my own bike after I paid for a god awful install... after watching your channel, I'm upgrading to a full Beyma setup😂😂😂. I wish I lived on the east coast so I could have my shit upgraded by NVS

I've seen that and worse and fixed so much hack work, cheap customers and no knowledge shop owners/installers. Most of the times the customers freak the F* out on price for high quality equipment and labor and lot of alley hacks. Great video!

@RanGer-498 2 года назад

Is it needed? maybe not. should it be done? Yes .. it prevents the chance of failure in the long run. People always say im to picky on my wiring that cant be seen ,but to me its a art. Sadly i lost my favorite crimpers a few weeks ago. Glad to see more installers/owners who go that extra distance.

Ohm's Law (E = IR) is as fundamentally important as Einstein's Relativity equation (E = mc²) is to physicists. E = I x R. One of the best videos I’ve seen on this subject! Great job! Keep them coming.

The spade terminals aren't "terrible". using the 12g instead of 8g ring, holy cats... Well, I mean, it "works", but... it sucks and creates CURRENT issues as you stated at the end *EVERYONE, THATS THE IMPORTANT PART* Your installations are fantastic and in my own field, I appreciate the attention to detail you show. HOLY CATS WHY IS ANYONE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE HYDRAULIC CRIMPER YOU USE?!?!?!?! A bathroom has a sink, you can turn the sink on full blast or just a little as you need, it still has the same amount of water that is available. You move your hand a bit more to move the handle open a bit more for more water. With the hydraulic crimpers, same thing. It's like a clutch pedal, you feel the pressure with your foot. according to how thick the wire gets, you need to use more force to crimp it. Like squeezing an old orange vs a fresh orange. That's probably the best one. Your hand is the size it is, you are as strong as you are, but you only need as much force as you need to crush that orange, the fresher the orange, the more force. The thicker the wire, the more force.

The funny part is they used the correct fuse holder on the other side . Anl or mini anl basically any fuse holder the holds the fuse down with screws not just pressure.

Great video's. Question? I have a 2019 Batwing Harley. I installed a Hertz amplifier, now I am adding the Hertz sx 6.5 neo speakers front and rear. Is it wise to drill vent holes in the speaker pods to allow the speaker to move the air and improve the sound? Or is this a urban legend? Thanks again for your product reviews.

@ridethepace6005 3 года назад

Carlos, what would be the typical turnaround time to add the Rockford Fosgate stage 3 kit to my 2020 Road Glide Limited? You are a few hours from me, in Western MA. Dont jump me if this is a dumb question, but do you typically do that in a day, if I rode down, or how would it work? I'd love to have you or your guys do the work, I can see you live and breath for this, which I respect. Thanks.

Just installed my new Rockford fosgate 98-13 stage 1 kit with new head unit and 4 new speakers. Sounded okay at first pretty loud and clear but not much base. Went out and listened again later and turned it up pretty loud and now i sound like im having some distortion! Is that system capable of busting the stock speakers with out an amp connected? What could be causing the distortion after only listening to it a few times? It has distortion on any input radio, bluetooth etc..... your thoughts????

@michaelvalentine3131 3 года назад

Why is it not cool to drill holes in bags for 6*9 speakers.

@NVSAUDIO 3 года назад

I will address that on part 2 of the video . Adding holes so close to the face of the speaker restricts the air flow and changes the sound that the speaker produces . The increases pressure on the front of the cone causes stress on the voice coil trying to force the air though those tiny small funnels . I’ve when you buy mesh grill Material the manufacture post the open area specifications of the mesh to let you know how much air restrictions the grill provides so you can calculate for it .
