    B&O Sub mounting depth and resistance?

    Yes the tw5 is a 13" driver but its not nearly as loud as a tw3 nor does not have the low end extension of a tw3. Size is not everything. In fact: A 12tw3 has a 3.5" deep chassis and 15.2mm of linear xmax. A 13tw5 has a 2.625" deep chassis and only 11mm of linear xmax. A tw5 is designed to...

    B&O Sub mounting depth and resistance?

    Well yes, in an aftermarket box, a 13tw5 will fit. But OP was talking about utilizing the oem b&o enclosure which is significantly smaller than the .8 cu ft needed for the tw5.

    GEN 2 Info or opinions on component setups

    I am biased regarding 6.5” and I have personally experience with the morel tempo ultra 602 and they are truly phenomenal speakers. Their midbass is extremely impressive and the tweeters are very smooth and natural. The midbass on the tempos is even better than the morel Virtus which is the next...

    GEN 2 Info or opinions on component setups

    3-ways and tweeters is not the correct setup. Components is the correct setup. 6.5" vs 6x9 is an everlasting debate. You will find better speakers in the 6.5" category as a lot of high end speaker lines dont offer 6x9's. I personally prefer 6.5". Not sure what your budget is but if you want...

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    B&O or no? If B&O you will need to add a NavTV Zen a2b to interface with the oem harness and can bus communications.

    GEN 2 Anyone running more than 1500 watts rms having Voltage issues?

    That was my thought process. I’m already running wire, doesn’t hurt to run another down the same path while I have everything apart.

    GEN 2 Anyone running more than 1500 watts rms having Voltage issues?

    I agree with you. I really am a believer in the direct battery ground. Makes a big difference.

    GEN 2 Anyone running more than 1500 watts rms having Voltage issues?

    I’m running 3 amps-Audiocontrol 6.1200, 4.800, 1.1500- 3500 watts total. Plus other components. 2 runs of 1/0 to the rear of the truck and 2 1/0 directly back to the battery. Upgraded main vehicle power and all ground connections. Stock alt, stock alt wiring, stock battery. Never dip below 14...

    There isn’t an alternative. I would be willing to bet user error and no attempt to contact NavTV for assistance.

    Lol. Bold statement with zero context. NavTV builds some phenomenal hardware. I can’t say enough about their quality and customer service.

    GEN 2 Size and location of good amp ground

    One piece of advice, go get some Vaseline or ky jelly to help pull the wires. I think you will have better luck getting through the drivers side grommet with two runs of 1/0.

    GEN 2 Size and location of good amp ground

    I would do 1/0 from the battery. The. 4 awg from th distribution blocks to the amps. It’s such a short run, 4 awg will be plenty for that much amperage.

    GEN 2 Size and location of good amp ground

    I should have worded it differently. Run power and ground directly from the battery to your distribution block at you amp rack (if you are using one). I was just trying to drive home not ground to the frame and making full runs with your power and ground.

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    5 speakers? You don’t need to retain the center channel. It’s only there to make up for the poor output of the Sony speakers. Yes, either a 5 channel or a 4 channel and sub amp. I really like AudioControl. You could go with the 6.1200 and bridge the last two channels for your sub.
