Ive always loved the mule build, I feel like it has the most potential for you to show off your creativity. Would love to see you finish up all the paneling and make that thing plush.
Thanks for the update. I am currently rewatching old episodes and am around 7years back when the Subaru motor was bought. The constant 'jokes' about this build taking forever are amusing.
Dude, you are AMAZING! The fusion of laughter and car stereo is so important to offset those moments where you find your self cussing and shouting and nursing painful impact spots on your body. I LOVE most of the Drum and Bass you play....im a DJ and thats one of my musical flavors. I notice youre no longer teasing C.A.F. which saddens me. I never saw C.A.F. makes jokes in return. I LOVE C.A.F. as well , amazing channel but i love watching yours cause its like entertainment AND education, SOUNDMAN is THA MAN!
When u go black and white it reminded me of the Clerks movie. Feels like this could be a late night comedy show on tv. 😂 Soundman you are hilarious and I love you 👍😁
Doug, I saw your video thumbnail this morning but was not able to watch it peacefully on the toilet as I had pretty bad diarrhea and didn't want to ruin the occasion. I watched it now some 12 hours later, and I cannot believe you went with a mechless Sony headunit. You always rubbished their Xplod speakers! Anyway I have the Sony 5300BT unit in my car and it's pretty good, does bluetooth well and doesn't crash, haven't even had a firmware update in 3 years.
Acura and slow is what I’m working with, oh shit that not the sound system just the car. Awesome work as usual though, was just thinking I need some man, I mean sound man in my life and here you come inserting yourself
I had a few songs I had to play first when switching up amps, Subs.... Outkast -Rosa Parks: Nelly Southern Grammar Biggy: Everyday struggle And there was a St Lunatics song that I dont remember the name of that had a nice loud wide range of bass
PLACED AN ORDER FOR THE SIDE SLIDER IPAD CAR DASH KIT A MONTH AGO, $263, NOTHING!!! SENT A COUPLE EMAILS, NO REPLY. I GET IT, BUSY, HOLIDAYS ETC, AT LEAST YOU CAN REPLY TO EMAILS!!
Starting to think this speaker set up might work really well in my 370... I haven't been able to decide on a speaker set up.. but this might work really well actually..
Doug should make a shirt with a milk carton with Rafa on it, then it woke be ready for Rafas mom to find him. Here's for 2024 and more mule footage and Doug playing with caulk.🎉😅😂
Did I understand your DSP input setup correctly? If I heard you right, you only have left/right and sub rca. Taking the signal for rear from front? Why if so? I enjoy front and rear stereo staging, is it just to ease installation or sound preference?
he only needs the front R/L since the signal is full range. the processor can split those into 4 and eq the proper frequencies for each front speaker, then sent into the amp to do the 4 speakers up front. then the rear or sub RCAs can be used for the sub after processing as well. then he has easy control from the head unit to drop or boost base if he wanted to. best part is the amp is only boosting part of the signal that each speaker needs. there's no passive crossovers cutting off signal that the speaker can't play.
@JasonWW2000 bummer man I was hoping he would have finished it. He knows what it takes to make 1 insane. I'm sure exo will turn out nice too but I'm guessing Doug has been around a lot of builds over the yrs especially back in the day when they were ALL OVER THE PLACE. Or at least they were in the midwest back in late 90s before they made the damn loud stereo laws that gave us all tickets. I have 4-JL audio 12-w1s (old school JL ) 1995 models powered by cockford ballsgate punch 200. (Foreman grill w end caps) and mannn I SPL at 151.3 in a chevy mini-blazer . No wall just a big ass box behind backseat all the way to ceiling and barely could close tailgate. All separate chambers w 3in ports all going up 2 subs faced back 2 angled towards ceiling. Dudes at local stereo shop said I got lucky w build bc they never seen such low powered subs spl so high. 🤷 lol. Eventually blew seal out on passenger rear window. That ride was the "panty droppa" 😄 🤣 good times but I know Doug could make a beast I wanted to see him out do the rest damn....
It depends on a lot of variables. For instance, you don't want a 6 1/2 inch mid-range to play too low of a frequency, like 30 hz. It'll just flop around and bottom out at medium volume levels. So you might try 80 Hz and see how it goes. The louder you want to play, the higher you would need to raise the crossover point to prevent over excursion. So it's all a balancing act and you have to experiment with your active crossover frequencies. You're typically not going to damage a mid-range by experimenting with different frequencies. When it comes to a tweeter you're going to want to go with whatever the manufacturer recommends for a high pass frequency. If they recommend 4k Hz @ 24dB/oct. then just go with that. Tweeters can be easily damaged by playing too low of a frequency so I wouldn't experiment on tweeter crossover points. Hope that helps.
you mean the solder on butts vs the crimpme butts bitching about crap quality of products on amazon from overseas while his lively hood drama is based solely on products from overseas guy? lmao
Newbie hear but why do you run the Sony head unit with 4 RCA outputs and a converter to get your sub output than run a different Sony or another brand head unit that has 6 RCA outputs -just asking because I'm installing a iPad in my 64 with your kit and haven't decided on the wiring part yet
DOUG DOES THE NVX DSP BLUETOOTH STREAMER WORK GOOD WITH IPHONE HONESTLY ? I HAVE A ZAPCO 8 CH DSPWITH BLUETOOTH SO THAT THING SOUND GREAT WITH MY IPAD . A FREIND DOES NOT WANT TO SPEND $900 FOR ZAPCO BUT THE NVX IS RESONABLE MAYBE IF IT WORKS WELL STREAMING FROM IPHONE . THX DOUG
I'm commenting when I'm only able 7 mins into this video... If you're doing DSP out of that head unit, make sure you toggle the MEGABASS off (it can only be toggled off using the center button on the front of the radio. It should go to about 46 without clipping... Should 😂 ALSO turn off DSO in the menu

Stup!d bass van build. 😂
Thanks for the update. I am currently rewatching old episodes and am around 7years back when the Subaru motor was bought. The constant 'jokes' about this build taking forever are amusing.
This episode has it all Doug! Witty, irreverent, & solid install content. Like the good old days that made us all fall in love with this channel.
I missed it when he used to go ham on rafas mom jokes but i feel its a little played out now lmfao
I’m so happy the old Doug is back finger banging the mule 🔈 🎶 💥

Thanks for including the segment about killing that off pop. Lots of good info this episode
Definitely need that Bernards & Jobs system in my car! Nothing beats the feel of a bumpin B&J on the road.
Always here for Mule content
Hope you and your fam had a great Xmas.. And enjoyed the calendars birthday
20:35 Thank goodness I'm not the only one who has the same issue but with XAV-AX3250 though not as loud as the mule.

I look forward to the 20th Anniversary of this build, Doug.
Bangin Holefson lmfao. Goes good with a sub from Cockford Ballsgate 😂😂
Love the assessment 👌 of B&W 😂and B&O
Doug, I saw your video thumbnail this morning but was not able to watch it peacefully on the toilet as I had pretty bad diarrhea and didn't want to ruin the occasion.

15:30 with the OLD SCHOOL transition
Happy New Year Doug
Doug about time I needed to poop!!! 😂 happy new year
So what's your opinion on this DSP after some use?
I liked the ballskin surround joke that got a chuckle out of me, Keep it up!
Acura and slow is what I’m working with, oh shit that not the sound system just the car. Awesome work as usual though, was just thinking I need some man, I mean sound man in my life and here you come inserting yourself
funny how many ppl dont know how to figure their rms. thnx for throwing that in there
It doesn’t matter what you did Doug!
Bought my wife a grand wagoner with Mcintosh system that’s really crisp.
Dude, thanks for the heads up on that dj pod cast!!
What wire Cutter/Crimper/Stripper you using? Looks more vintage than Raffas mom.
I had a few songs I had to play first when switching up amps, Subs.... Outkast -Rosa Parks: Nelly Southern Grammar
Biggy: Everyday struggle
And there was a St Lunatics song that I dont remember the name of that had a nice loud wide range of bass
PLACED AN ORDER FOR THE SIDE SLIDER IPAD CAR DASH KIT A MONTH AGO, $263, NOTHING!!! SENT A COUPLE EMAILS, NO REPLY. I GET IT, BUSY, HOLIDAYS ETC, AT LEAST YOU CAN REPLY TO EMAILS!!
I thought it was just me. I ordered Dash Mod back in May 2023, which was supposed to be ready in 1st week December. They stopped replying to email
Yo from San Diego California USA 🇺🇸 🎉
Made my day Dougie!

Great job playboy.
Rare Vinatage AAMP Of America butt connectors for sure... I still have probably 10,000 of them from my shop I closed in 2005.
Happy New Year!!!! New Door Panels next???
Starting to think this speaker set up might work really well in my 370... I haven't been able to decide on a speaker set up.. but this might work really well actually..
Finally some Soundman content instead of sandman content. 😅
If you finish the mule in 2024, it will be a good year. If you don't finish the mule in 2024, it will be a great year!
Jobs & Bernards !!! hahaha
Here we go with the mule🦙
Happy new year Douglas. Mule is lookin good
Those stickers crack me up haha
You need some more Raffa Rage clips! Those always make me crack up.
What happend to the sub box you built a few years ago.
Did you just do audio work Doug??!!! Careful, people might start thinking this is a car audio channel 🤪
Happy New Year mate! Wish you a killer 24!! 🤟🤟
Just on time. All I have to say.
Best toilet program 👌 blow out approved!
Doug should make a shirt with a milk carton with Rafa on it, then it woke be ready for Rafas mom to find him. Here's for 2024 and more mule footage and Doug playing with caulk.🎉😅😂
Bernards and Jobs = BJ Audio System.
The 9 volt side check is meta...
Can you do another run of the soundman bass dangler I lost mine
15:07
Air Valve Fitting #3,
Self disassembly inevitable
👀
Nice
I envision a Better Call Saul-esque random series... The intro sort of made me flashback to an episode.
Fuse that constant wire that feeds the processor. Por favor.
It might be on audio senses that’s why you have the pop might be
Doug at 18:00 what was that Nate dogg mix? Sounded good lmk thanks!
Hey what seats do you have in the Mule? thanks!
What settings on the iPad Apple Music app do you set yours to?
Great progress on the Mule. What’s the name of the podcast you downloaded the music from?
Did I understand your DSP input setup correctly? If I heard you right, you only have left/right and sub rca. Taking the signal for rear from front? Why if so? I enjoy front and rear stereo staging, is it just to ease installation or sound preference?

You pulled the McIntosh HU out for a Sony? Mac not have the I/Os needed for the iPad and DSP?
I ordered an Ipad in April sent my money and panel in April as well nd is looking for an update have heard anything since August?
Battery Cables USA's Extreme Cable is the best you can get....!
i dont see the airvents for the missing AC
What song is playing at 24:10??
Does that DSP have a timing delay for the “off pop”?
We want the BASS VAN. Come on . Vatos locos FORRRRRREVERR. HOLMES. LOL. Oops caps lock was stuck lol
That's been sold.
@JasonWW2000 bummer man I was hoping he would have finished it. He knows what it takes to make 1 insane. I'm sure exo will turn out nice too but I'm guessing Doug has been around a lot of builds over the yrs especially back in the day when they were ALL OVER THE PLACE. Or at least they were in the midwest back in late 90s before they made the damn loud stereo laws that gave us all tickets. I have 4-JL audio 12-w1s (old school JL ) 1995 models powered by cockford ballsgate punch 200. (Foreman grill w end caps) and mannn I SPL at 151.3 in a chevy mini-blazer . No wall just a big ass box behind backseat all the way to ceiling and barely could close tailgate. All separate chambers w 3in ports all going up 2 subs faced back 2 angled towards ceiling. Dudes at local stereo shop said I got lucky w build bc they never seen such low powered subs spl so high. 🤷 lol. Eventually blew seal out on passenger rear window. That ride was the "panty droppa" 😄 🤣 good times but I know Doug could make a beast I wanted to see him out do the rest damn....
11 minute mark...Is that the secret car on the screen he's been hiding from us for a while?
What is that seriously groovy chicky bow bow track you got playin in the background?
How do you know what frequencies to set the door speakers to? I see on speaker specs it has a range so do I just select an in between????
It depends on a lot of variables. For instance, you don't want a 6 1/2 inch mid-range to play too low of a frequency, like 30 hz. It'll just flop around and bottom out at medium volume levels. So you might try 80 Hz and see how it goes. The louder you want to play, the higher you would need to raise the crossover point to prevent over excursion. So it's all a balancing act and you have to experiment with your active crossover frequencies. You're typically not going to damage a mid-range by experimenting with different frequencies.
When it comes to a tweeter you're going to want to go with whatever the manufacturer recommends for a high pass frequency. If they recommend 4k Hz @ 24dB/oct. then just go with that. Tweeters can be easily damaged by playing too low of a frequency so I wouldn't experiment on tweeter crossover points.
Hope that helps.
Are you using fuses from Amazon? Luis Rossman did a video about this recently.
you mean the solder on butts vs the crimpme butts bitching about crap quality of products on amazon from overseas while his lively hood drama is based solely on products from overseas guy? lmao
@@rippingandflippingcards4135 No, he did a follow-up video on fuses.
@@PatrickHoodDaniel hmmm
Not much trust out there anymore. Going to rethink my buying this year starting now.
@@rippingandflippingcards4135 After watching, I need to remove all of my fuses in my sailboat. It's difficult to know who to trust these days.
Doogie Howser theme song. Caught it.
It doesn't matter what you do Doug. And of course the facts of the factory-installed systems.....sounds far more expensive, 😂
Newbie hear but why do you run the Sony head unit with 4 RCA outputs and a converter to get your sub output than run a different Sony or another brand head unit that has 6 RCA outputs -just asking because I'm installing a iPad in my 64 with your kit and haven't decided on the wiring part yet
9:39 how did you mount that amp? is it just self tapers into the backseat?
Never noticed the mule having back seats..am I higher than I thought?
Jeeps have backseats
Never noticed the mule having back seats..am I higher than I thought?
Jeeps have backseats
He's got a large piece of wood covered in cloth along the back wall. So he can just screw right into it, no problem.
Looks like she’s almost ready for me… When can I pick her up?
How's this thing not done yet. Last video was one year ago and feel you only connected 2 wires since😂
*Doug, I just want you to know I've probably smoked about a pound of Mary since I've been watching your vids some years ago lol.*
DOUG DOES THE NVX DSP BLUETOOTH STREAMER WORK GOOD WITH IPHONE HONESTLY ? I HAVE A ZAPCO 8 CH DSPWITH BLUETOOTH SO THAT THING SOUND GREAT WITH MY IPAD . A FREIND DOES NOT WANT TO SPEND $900 FOR ZAPCO BUT THE NVX IS RESONABLE MAYBE IF IT WORKS WELL STREAMING FROM IPHONE . THX DOUG
Don't think about getting rid of the mule,it's the one that represents the lineup of cars and builds you have. It's the O.G.of the bunch
whats the name of the dj music again?
When is Doug gonna finish the mule?
Keep the Mule
What happened to the McIntosh system?
What kind of head unit is that please
I'm commenting when I'm only able 7 mins into this video... If you're doing DSP out of that head unit, make sure you toggle the MEGABASS off (it can only be toggled off using the center button on the front of the radio. It should go to about 46 without clipping... Should 😂 ALSO turn off DSO in the menu
what happened to the box that was in the mule?
