tacomaguy1 Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 you were testing tones off your phone through Bluetooth?....get some real tones on a usb or cd and try again I know when I play anything through Bluetooth it's always way quieter Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter99 Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 Gained almost 2dB, but still less then what I hoped for. Then I remembered on my previous test back in November, I was using DJ Magic Mike "Bassin' After Midnight". It was a song I always used to play back in the day (mid-90's) to make my trunk lid RATTLE like crazy. I was using 0dB test tones but I figured, what the hell, lets try it. BOOM Any thoughts on if I can squeeze any more deebeez outta this thing? I love it! Hate you, love you, love to hate you, LOVE the build! SHIT! STOP RAISING THE GOD DAMN BAR!!!! LET ME CATCH UP!!!

I did some measuring before I installed the HU and I was surprised to see (iirc) that Bluetooth was my best option for max signal. Good point thought, I'll go back and double check that.

Wicks Posted May 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 How about a video (...finally) of this thing in action....? Typical disclaimer: It was taken with my iPhone so the sound sucks, picture ain't that great either but hey, its better than nuthin'. Yeah, yeah, the trunk rattles a bit yet but I think a lot of the noise is coming from below the trunk and not just the lid itself.

Chris Hammer Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 In my experience bluetooth signal was never as loud or clear as a direct usb to my ipod.. but everyone stuff is different. I still think that is a good score and probably much louder then me. MY BUILD *****http://tinyurl.com/gmcbuild***** Vehicles 2005 GMC Canyon CB1000r - Currently where any future funds are going.
