    You know immediately that the 200.4 amp goes to the rear pods the secong you adjust the right side gain. Rears light up.
  2. Bronco standard sound system 6 speaker upgrade DIY writeup w/ instructions (dash & kick panel speaker removal) & wiring diagram

    I just installed the Mabett pods with 6.75KS Kickers in my 4 door hardtop, with the front panels swapped out for a Sunrider . I’m telling you that because the hardest part of the upgrade was trying to deal with the attachment screws with the top on. OMG! I then wrestled with trying to mount the...
  3. Kicker Key Amp 200.4 Install DIY Video - Do this first!

    @RagnarKon I'm pretty sure the harness that @plugnplaykits ships with the 11 kit hooks into the pods and the fronts.

    I've already got the Kicker 2 ohm sub in there. This is a straight out swap...4 ohm replacing 2 ohm.

    I also assume the wiring connection to the 4 ohm sub is exactly as it was with the 2 ohm.
  6. 2023MY Standard Audio (6-speaker) Subwoofer Delete Mandatory and Functional Amps Removed

    I assume the swap was an easy Out and In. Both subs fit the same mounting holes? I keep thinking of the word "muddy" when describing the sound I'm currently getting from the 2 ohm sub. The 4 ohm swap corrected that?

    So, to put it in terms an idiot (me) will understand, the 600Hz bass blocker is saving the amp from getting fried.
  8. [How-To] FORScan Audio/Speaker Mods

    When putting the 6.75 Kickers in the pods, should the Forscan setting be Speaker or Speaker/Tweeter? Does the choice also get affected by whether or not a Sub is there. I'm running the Fusion/Kicker 2+2 sub. I still don't have a handle on the difference between Speaker and Speaker/Tweeter...
  9. 2023MY Standard Audio (6-speaker) Subwoofer Delete Mandatory and Functional Amps Removed

    So the bass blocker is effectively creating a higher resistance on the 4" kicker, creating a collective reduction of the load on the amp? Until a couple weeks ago, this was a foreign language to me, so I really appreciate your patience and guidance on this stuff. Also, I'm curious what you're...
  10. 2023MY Standard Audio (6-speaker) Subwoofer Delete Mandatory and Functional Amps Removed

    A couple questions… Is there a crossover between the kick panel and dash speakers? If so, is it hardware or dialed into the EQ, which would be eliminated by going to “00” in Forscan. I can’t imagine they would be wired to be receiving the exact same signal. I’m thinking putting bass blockers on...

    Ahhhh…so that’s what my wife means when she asks me….”did you just distort?”
  12. 2023MY Standard Audio (6-speaker) Subwoofer Delete Mandatory and Functional Amps Removed

    I wouldn’t even know where to start! What would I need to do, and is it worth it? Is it something you would consider doing? I am going to put kicker 6”75’ in the kick panels eventually. The 6.75’s are going in on Saturday with Mabett pods. Staying stock on the kick panels for now. Couple...

    Here's chatGPT's contribution to the discussion... Generally, amplifiers are designed to operate within a certain range of impedances, which is the measure of electrical resistance in a circuit. When the amplifier is not designed to operate at a specific impedance, it can cause strain on the...

    Hmmm...Crutchfield tech support , after looking at the Bronco wiring, gave me this diagram and said the front is wired in series...not parallel. So if the front is wired parallel, if we substitute 4ohm for each of the 4 speakers in the parallel example, we end up at 2 ohm? Otherwise, we're at 16...

    I'd like to hear your findings. I've got the 2+2 with the Fusion amp. It delivers a lot of bass. Not crisp, but then again, is a sub ever "crisp? The fusion amp/sub is operating independent of the rest of the system...I believe...but I don't know how the sub harness is wired back to the radio...
  16. What did you do TO / WITH your Bronco today? 👨🏻‍đź”§đź§°đźšżđź› 

    Just installed the Sunrider top. Tomorrow, 6" Kickers are replacing the 4" kickers in the pods. I'm officially done "modding" the beast...don't understand why my wife doesn't believe me!:rolleyes:
  17. Forscan and 2023 models?

    I hadn't read this thread prior to trying to turn off autostop today....it didn't run. I have a MY23, and I never load a saved profile, so that nukes that idea. Thanks for the idea though.
  18. Bronco standard sound system 6 speaker upgrade DIY writeup w/ instructions (dash & kick panel speaker removal) & wiring diagram

    I just took delivery on the Mabetts... https://a.co/d/6cildHN By the way, is it necessary to put some Dynamat in the pods? And if so, what is the effect on the sound?
