these adapter plates will be available to the public soon! they fit 2017-2019 ford f250 Superduty trucks. I plan on offering them in 2-way components as well as single and double 6.5’s. 5 1/4” too! Did i mention i also plan on offering the fully loaded ready to go? Check my webstore www.wccaraudio.com in a few days i should have at least these up.
Ok thanks! I would love to do everything your doing to that truck to my 2017 Platinum. I have a nice 2 10 box under the back seat with sundown subs and a crescendo amp but want more. Do the 6 smaller subs compare to double 10s ?
I can't help it Steve's workmanship is insane, unmatched, incredible and so many more adjectives to describe his abilities WOW!!!!!!!!! brother man wow...
Love the setup and the free lesson in how car audio is suppose to be done. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and style. The wiring on the doors look A1, never seen any other audio shop go into that much detail. Good job Steve! 👍👍👍👍
When it comes to online audio “experts” , there’s an abundance of them and the horse shit they try to pass off as legitimate technical information gathered from their impressive experience and vastly superior custom installations, can be easily recognized by its putrid smell. Fortunately there are certified and trustworthy companies like SMD to provide accurate test results along with reliable installation information for many great components Thanks Steve !
@@jody024 , Sinatra ??? I’ve heard of that dude. He and his associates weren’t called homies or anything else from the modern era of stereotypical identifiers so commonly used. Of course they were all into sex, drugs and the hipster music that the young at heart old folks were snapping their fingers to long before rock and roll took possession of every living soul on earth. Sinatra was the head honcho of this small group of cool cats from the entertainment industry. They were called the Rat Pack because their lifestyle would make Ozzie blush. Isn’t it frightening how the older generation swings 😳. I heard that Frankie had a totally bitchin Victrola installed in his ‘40 Ford 😎.
Sweet 3 way plate! Be interesting to see if the 810 necessary or if someone could just use an LC using the passive crossovers. Can't wait for the tuning video! Been trying to learn all I can about these DSP units before I drop the coin, but I think I can get away without one using the head unit's crossovers and time alignment.
@@meade916 😂😂😂my grumpy 67 year old step dad is gonna look at me funny when I start calling his side steps "amp side steps"...great video, as always, Steve
I dig the red white and blue spk wire coding, I always put the scrap damping material behind the driver on the outer door skin. Scrap is scrap....Cheers
Wire job clean and safe & the adapters for the doors... Proper!!!. Man I swear every time I get done watching your videos I want to do something bass related. I think I will sneak a few panels to the wood shop at my job and get busy on my lunch break. Keep up the great work!
Just bought the combo pack for smd dd1 and cc1. So excited. I was about to buy a o scope. Saw the comparison and absolutely mind blowing. I hot a Orion XTR.2500.1DZ (2948rms @1ohm 12.6) and massive audio 12 3000rms. So pumped to have it set professionally!!
When your dog barked mine got up to play with him because I listen through studio monitors, live action sound with 15" reference sub, also we listen to the same music in background, probably your line arrays? Effortlessly loud and clear.
Very nice work! I am curious to your get thought of placing all 3 components in the door vs. doing some in the pillar. At first glance, it seems like the factory grill in the door may be a little small to get max output from all 3 drivers. I appreciate your feedback.
Damn id give anything to work w you meade :/ always been my dream. Wish i could see your face if you saw my builds. N here i am again years later watching your vids again
Nice..! I always find myself turning to short dog, or 40 when tweaking levels. I've yet to pick up any of your SMD essentials, but it's on the agenda. I'm assuming that I won't be turning knobs constantly once I do get set up. Thanks for the vids, nice truck\build.
Actually i had this type of speaker install in my Ford 12 years ago. It's the Ford Fusion european "brother" and i can say that it works best if the plate is mounted upside down. The highs in the bottom and the woofer at the top.
The difference is that with a 3-way setup has more room to improve. 6x9 coax cannot have the mid xover points changed. I have a set of t4 components and, with the way I have it set up, the 6.5 likes to beam at 2kHz. The passive xover has the point at 2.5k. I'm running it active at 1.9kHz and the tweeter at 2.3kHz. Absolutely 0 beaming.
I live in sac how much to put those in my smart car I’ll come threw I’m looking to upgrade it just the door speaker set up obviously not your full slap that’s in the truck
Steve, what's the part number for the PAC harness you used to integrate the 3-ways in the doors? A link to where you got it would be AWESOME. Thanks in advance.
Nice work, build looks killer...wondering if the bluetooth audio from phone calls and the forward and reverse sensor alarms still play through the speakers?
Hey all. Kinda new to all this but I was wondering, is there an advantage to just running front speakers versus running front and rear? Any help would be great. Thanks
meade916 so I did a little experiment. Had the head unit at mid level and put the fader all the way to the front and it sounded like crap. When I put it back to center the music was much more full. When it was up front I also had to turn it up 6 notches to match the output I had when it was at center
Leaving only the front speakers gives it a nice front sound stage therefore enhancing the sound quality and realism. Your vehicle probably doesn't have a very good factory system but going aftermarket makes a huge difference if done right.
Preston Helzer This is what I have so far. Kenwood x702 head unit, cadence qrs6k3 for the front, if I do go with rear fill it will be cadence qrs69. I have a pioneer gm-d8704 for the front & rear. 2 jbl cs1214 subs in a sealed box with a pioneer gm-d9701 sub amp with all nvx wiring. Down the road upgrade would be focal 165as3 fronts, focal as69 rear, JL w3 13.5’s for the subs in a sealed box. Upgraded amps will either be focal or JL
Will my factory amp move Kicker components front and rear? Doing upgrade. Corolla with 6-3/4 components front and 6x9 rear. Already upgrade radio to Kenwood.

@mead916 do these b2 subs offer spl as well sound quality? Compared to say a 12w7?
Yezzz zirr!!!
Gotta make them for the 2020 Silverado 2500HD too.
Chyeeh
Sick! I'm glad for some reason manufacturers are still using 6x9s otherwise this wouldn't exist!

What are your favorite 6x9’s
I can't help it Steve's workmanship is insane, unmatched, incredible and so many more adjectives to describe his abilities WOW!!!!!!!!! brother man wow...
Most people might not be interested in watching wiring but that was clean af 👍
Your workmanship and attention to detail is insane. Nice job!
It's a shame the door isn't clear just to show that workmanship and quality and attention to detail. SMD is on the next level.💯🙌✌️

This dude is a friggin ARTIST! Respect that work! 💯
You are so awesome @ everything you do Steve!! Car audio master this world will ever see bro!! Cheers!!
My grandma said she needed hearing aids took her for a ride today blasted those two 15 's she said ohh I can hear again 😂😂😂😂😂
Bump that Sinatra!

This video clearly shows how important
Proper planning is when building your system...
💪💪💪👍😎
Doors are so convenient to work on with the truck at that height. no kneeling or sitting on the ground.
actually it wasn't too bad. Glad i have those Amp side steps though for sure :D nice and wide, with grip on them.
@@meade916 😂😂😂my grumpy 67 year old step dad is gonna look at me funny when I start calling his side steps "amp side steps"...great video, as always, Steve
I am really impressed, the fact that you show the mistakes… now I don’t have to make those mistakes lol great job guys
Love watching the master at work. Wish I knew 10% of what SM does about car audio...
Man i can only imagine how good that sounds.While sitting in your truck..Nice really nice..
I dig the red white and blue spk wire coding, I always put the scrap damping material behind the driver on the outer door skin. Scrap is scrap....Cheers

Your work is outstanding ... Better then factory machine could do Mr Meade
those components look absolutely gorgeous... I wish had the fabrication skill to make things like this..
Offers still available if u want to borrow 200 and pay me back years later with a system lol. 🤷🏽♂️
Awesome work and awesome helpful tips this video. I love to see the multiple smaller woofer setups, something a little different.
Just bought the combo pack for smd dd1 and cc1. So excited. I was about to buy a o scope. Saw the comparison and absolutely mind blowing. I hot a Orion XTR.2500.1DZ (2948rms @1ohm 12.6) and massive audio 12 3000rms. So pumped to have it set professionally!!

ya he wouldn't shut up LOL!! he was talking for a bit in this video if you listen he was just jabbering away :D :D
Damn beautiful job on those B2 Audio 3 way speakers bro. They slapped hard even without the subwoofers hooked up. Keep up the awesome builds.
Those adapter plates came out awesome. Nice job. I am always impressed by your work
I love this install series but I'm still waiting for a sound system to be installed in your Escalade!
Me too
That's three of us so far.
Maybe if we get enough people to agree, he will start on that install? 🤔😮
a million people agreeing wont get my amps here faster 😂 they are being powder coated right now so relax :) thanks!
@@meade916 yes sir
Man do those b2s get it all the way Steve. Sound awesome on geadphones. Thanks for sharing.
That sub enclosure is 👌🏻. I bet the port bazookas air onto the back of your arm when it’s on the arm rest.
I will watch allllll 40 min, at least a couple times guaranteed!!!
Nostalgia🤷♂️
ShiftyKing’s Guid2TheGalaxy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💯💯💯💯
That Bracket and speakers to pretty to hide behind the door panel. Clean precise work!!
Those B2 3way speakers and adapters are super sexy!!! Hell of an install.....
Let's make sure they fit first.. as I suspected.... Fits perfectly!!
SMD & B2 Audio FTW.. always innovating.. one of the top audio trend setters for sure, thanks for the awesome video Steve 💪🏼💪🏼
I love systems that sound like that
amazing ingenuity with that tweeter rig bro
Thanks for making the speaker rings will get a pair for my 16 f-150
top notch, like always at smd.
I need this exact adapter for my truck. Awesome job once again.
Came out nice thanks for the videos
Professor Meade Chopin the 2017 gang
Those adapter's are off the chain.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I like the RED , WHITE , AND BLUE!!! color scheme on the wiring..... 🇺🇸 Am I the only one to notice that?
Huh!?
Very nice work! I am curious to your get thought of placing all 3 components in the door vs. doing some in the pillar. At first glance, it seems like the factory grill in the door may be a little small to get max output from all 3 drivers. I appreciate your feedback.
nope they sound great.
and shows your computer modding skills with the wire loom great touch as always
Awesome build. I've enjoyed watching all the videos and seeing it all come together. Nice Job Man!
Nice job Steve
Beautiful man, don't know how I missed this one..
Love b2! That must sound so clean and good especially for crankin bury me in smoke haha
That was a great audio flex in the beginning lol
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think f250 and f150 are similar so this may be a two way deal
Just keeps gettin better
Wow so interesting
Oh my God those are too nice to be covered up !
Nice video...just got my cc-1 today. I can't wait to play around with it.
Off the hook great install LOVE IT 😜
Another solid fab with my favorite b2 audio. Nice work.
Dope as always!
Notification squad sound off👌
Damn id give anything to work w you meade :/ always been my dream. Wish i could see your face if you saw my builds. N here i am again years later watching your vids again
super professional/factory looking.
It’s crazy how good those look. Wow

master craftsman all day.
Awesome programming ,awesome work ,it speaks for it self 100%👍
Make your life easy and get that Milwaukee 18volt best gun install looks great always love your work
Damn. I'm definitely gonna be looking at the straight 6x9 to 6.5. As always great work
Like watching Bob Ross. Creating a masterpiece one router stroke at a time.
Nice always with b2 💯
F'n awesome as always. Thanks for putting out the great content and great work Steve!
that Laguna laser is super smooth.
Actually i had this type of speaker install in my Ford 12 years ago. It's the Ford Fusion european "brother" and i can say that it works best if the plate is mounted upside down. The highs in the bottom and the woofer at the top.
Question. How much for the under seat box with 4 of the 6.5 b2’s. Got a SKV1500.1d amp and looking for a box under the seat.
i posted Gately Audio's info in the video.
That truck is friggin dope all around!!! Bad ass system too man nice job!!!
Makes me wonder if a higher grade 6x9 coaxial would sound just as good and drop right in
The difference is that with a 3-way setup has more room to improve. 6x9 coax cannot have the mid xover points changed. I have a set of t4 components and, with the way I have it set up, the 6.5 likes to beam at 2kHz. The passive xover has the point at 2.5k. I'm running it active at 1.9kHz and the tweeter at 2.3kHz. Absolutely 0 beaming.
True but with them being placed off axis like a coaxial design the way its installed has a big impact also.
@@Masterdebator881
Oops, meant to specify the 6.5
I’m sorry if you answered this in one of your videos but I haven’t been able to find it, but what did you add in the Rear doors?
Rear doors are stock
so is he not playing the rear speaker at all because he said he deleted them on the wiring coming out the amp kit@@DGAF_AK87
Are these available on your website I would like to buy a set
As always SMD makin it look clean clownin
Those are freakin bad ass!!!!!
I live in sac how much to put those in my smart car I’ll come threw I’m looking to upgrade it just the door speaker set up obviously not your full slap that’s in the truck
Love your stuff. Just can't afford it I'm sure.
Would love to see those speaker adaptors go up forsale.
Mr. Meade, what might be your suggestion for a 2004 Ford Expedition, while keeping all seating available?
Steve, what's the part number for the PAC harness you used to integrate the 3-ways in the doors? A link to where you got it would be AWESOME. Thanks in advance.
Man try black label godspeed and hellbound, fast tight double bass and almoat painful mids...makes my tnt 15s get loose
Where can i get a set of them for my truck 2017...f250
I would like a set of these as a 2-way without the tweeter cutout but only see the 3-way available
Just plug a hole then you got one for a 2 way setup.
Nice work, build looks killer...wondering if the bluetooth audio from phone calls and the forward and reverse sensor alarms still play through the speakers?
yup works perfect.
Are the adapter plates available yet?
Steve meade is the man . I need a system install homie
I also like to get those quick releases a must have
10:18 Boyz in the Hood Quote: Dammn, that sh*t's bumpin' !
Hey Steve. I want this exact setup. I have a 2017 f250. How much would this cost. Everything in total
Your looking at probably 5-6k bro. This is gonna knock on a different level.
I was trying to get an estimate on how much a similar set up on the 4 / 18s setup would cost to put in a 2011 escalade?
I have a Ram mega cab Alpine factory system, what would be a good upgrade for the sub. Using the factory setup
Hey all. Kinda new to all this but I was wondering, is there an advantage to just running front speakers versus running front and rear? Any help would be great. Thanks
yes. It will sound better.
