Quick little RV stereo upgrade.


Recommended Posts

So I have taken the past few days off from building the X to do a little side project I had.

We have an RV that has had a piss poor stereo for awhile now. So it's was time to upgrade a little. :D

Some of our out of town shows we drag it out to chill and BBQ at shows.

This had to go

I had this laying around so it went in as well as an older navi, An Ipod adapter and a Sirius tuner

Then I decided we needed to have a little tunes for outside. The plan is to have a simple 2ch and sub outside so we can listen to tunes as well as adding a projector that will use the side of the RV so we can watch movies, PPV, Sports, video games etc.

I just got started on the wiring.

I picked a roll of Shok Wire for the job.

And thats all I have for pics. I had just about all the power wire finished off when I split my head open on one of the open doors and put a 1" gash in muh head. So a handful of stitches later, I don't feel like doing shit for a couple days. So when my head quits pounding, I will get back to this and the X build.

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

- 60 ft of 3/0

-480 Ah of battery

- (2) stock alternators (70 +90)

- Kenwood Excelon x-794, 4v preouts

car audio is just a LOT more complicated than "this amp does this power" or "this sub will be this loud". its like 2 + 2 = banana. (if that confuses you then you get the point) lol

Not sure what I will do for subs yet. I have plenty of stuff to use in the stockpile. Might go with something simple for now.

The wiring isn't too bad just 10x longer then anything else. I did have to tie in after the step down from 24v to 12v but that was closer then the battery bank anyway.

More pics in a few days when my headache goes away. ;)

I spent a little time on this again today. Finished off the wiring and ran the RCA's

The fuse block was a little disappointing. Sure it looks nice, but the performance sucks. First all all the display has a loose connection so it's displays intermittently. The overall function of it works, so I will leave it for now. The other thing I didn't care for was the blown fuse alarm. So unless you use all 4 fuses or in my case at least have all fuses in, it will beep at you.

I have an idea for the speaker connections that I will have to search out for part tomorrow.
