    GEN 2 Size and location of good amp ground

    A multi meter will tell you voltage but it won’t tell you the level of resistance for a particular amperage which for 3000 watts can easily be over 200 amps. Resistance equal heat, heat equals melted wires, melted wires can equal a burned down truck.

    GEN 2 Size and location of good amp ground

    Run a 1/0 power and ground directly from the battery to the distribution block and back. At knowledge fest 2018 in Dallas, they spoke about this specifically in the new f150's, chevy's, and rams. Quote from the conference, "The frames are obviously still steel but with the composites, glues, and...

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    For B&O you would use the NavTV Zen a2b. Same concept as the Dsr1 but it is capable of converting the digital a2b communication protocol of the B&O system. But with the Zen a2b, you will want to use a stand alone dsp as NavTV has not yet released their dsp software and their is no estimated...

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    Your installer needs to do some more research. I wouldn’t use him if he’s willing to hack your harness apart when there are plug and play options. The Dsr1 is the correct way to integrate into the Sony system with no splicing. You use the Dsr1 to remove and replace the factory Sony amp/dsp...

    DIY stereo upgrade for under $500.00

    For Sony, use the Rockford DSR1 for integration/dsp. Completely plug and play, absolutely no splicing of the factory harness, integrated chime volume and routing, etc. Makes your install as easy as plugging three plugs together. Also, you always use an external dsp if you prefer that instead of...

    Phoenix Android Audio retains Sync 3

    See the red box. All the other functions top and bottom are still available. The sync screen will just be a “section” of the screen. The red box shows how the factory GM screen is passed through. Same resolution as oem. Same concept on the fords.

    It’s still confusing as to why ford got rid of the hotspot in the raptors. Just make any sense to me.

    Post stereo install pics

    You don’t need more than 2 channels. Front left and right are full frequency signals. Toslink is only 2 channel left and right as well.

    Post stereo install pics

    I guess I got lucky. I haven’t had those problems thankfully with rca or toslink. It’s been pretty flawless. Any small issues have always been emailed to Tony and NavTV and within a couple days, there’s an update available. Sorry for your trouble.

    Also not sure what this means “The sound of the vertical screen head unit will usually be fed through AUX wires to the sound system of the vehicle.”

    GEN 2 Adding subwoofer to Sony system

    There isn't one. I would have told you to use the Rockford DSR1 over the Pac, even if you were using an external dsp. Completely plug and play for both inputs and outputs, does not require the dash to be taken apart, and removes and replaces the oem Sony amp/dsp. You could buy the F02 harness...
