Yours sound better than the stock 6.5s ?
I am trying to see where is the issue. Did you get the speaker hardness from Crutchfiled ? Metra 72-5602
I had to cut them since there is no connectors on the sub. So I plugged black on black and white on red.

Yes way better. Nice clean bass. Ya I used the adapter from crutchfield. Been a while since I’ve hooked them up but I think you have them right.

I also have MJP6s in for kicks and they sound great. Obvs. less range than the stock ones (wich really also sounded pretty good), but good low range sound.

I have B&O and this is without aftermarket amplification.

Did you run the DSP Setup with the mic and the gain TURNED ALL THE WAY DOWN?
Did you turn the treble / mid / bass on the factory stereo control all the way OFF?
Did you turn off speed compensated volume?
Did you set the volume to 'all occupants'?

Kicker EQ on?
Compression on?
Crossovers off.
Bi amp disabled?
DC power not 12v?

This seems to be split here.

My Polk DB 4s in the dash clip at around 20, but its also offensively loud at that point and well within my expectations of when they should start to clip.

Ford Bronco Kicker Key Amp 200.4 Install DIY Video - Do this first! IMG_4763


used @BuiltRight Industries to mount the sub today. works good, will rattle if you really push it hard but that was expected. i don't really shake houses or anything so a non-issue for me.

mounting didn't align perfectly with the hs10 holes, and i could only get three mount points because the rear seat position and fuck space, i have a 2d. the molle is great, scratches with metal on metal, but i don't care. the sooner i can wear this beast in the better i feel about not worrying about beating on it.

There’s gotta be someone out there who can fab up a custom mounting plate specifically for the Kicker subs that bolts directly to the side panels.

I found these guys but Im not sure I want to get rid of that compartment that you can place small items etc.
I also Think that for what it cost you can have aN audio shop make a custom plate. I can make it but I don't have a table router.

Sorry if this was asked recently but too much to go through every single post in this thread.

Anyone know when this kit is going to be back in stock or where to find an alternative?

Does yours cuts out about 19-20 Volume ?
I rarely have it that loud. My eardrums would be blown out. I run about 16 max most of the time. I was showing my dad my bronco last weekend and he turned it up over 20 for a while though and I never heard it clip.
