Hi mate nice work. I have a f10 I have changed the speakers in the doors and rear but the front speakers badly distort when I turn up the volume. The amplifier is stock, do you have any ideas? The fader is more to the back speakers.
I have had this before where it is the base stereo, that doest have any amp at all. Basically the speakers all run directly from the headunit itself, and that is just not very capable of running aftermarket speakers with a low sensitivity very well. What speakers have you put in there?
@TMCHL Correct, it's a passive active system, so the mid and tweeter in the door run a high pass of about 150hz, then the underseat sub is playing from that frequency down on a low pass filter 🙂
Hi . Can you please tell me if this type of upgrades can be done in my F10 / 520d year 2012. I have a Harman Becker BE9510 AMP with 16 speakers S677A system. My amp just completely gone now , no acoustic tones in my car , so I'm looking in any solutions . Until now with not much of luck unfortunately. Thanks for your help 👍
Hi Lorant, there are a couple of different directions you could go. If you do not want to upgrade your speakers in the car, something like a Helix V12 DSP would be my first pick. As this will cover 12 speakers on its own and can output to another amplifier at the same time. Where are you located?
@@nathanbliss6788 at this stage I'm not sure if my amp is gone , as suddenly today when I started my car the whole audio came back . But it has his moments when it freezes the whole display. So now I am investigating the CIC unit.
@@kcsacsa1 ok well thats good news. it could be the CIC i suppose, probably a dry joint somewhere in the system, good luck and let me know if the situation changes, cheers. im in gloucestershire btw.
The customer got his original amp back so that the car can go back to factory if he ever wants to. The Match UP7BMW comes with a plug and play harness making it plug an play. You can see me plug it into the factory harness at 3.40 in the video
Hi I have the match up 7 installed. Would you be able to provide me with the tune file you created for this video? Or your most recent one. I have a G30. Thank you
Ill find out for you tomorrow and let you know mate, send the shop an email at sales@phattaudio.com.au with your details and postcode and I'll work it out for you 🙂
I've looked at that setting a couple of times in other helix/match products but haven't had a chance to play around with it as of yet. It's on my list of things to try as well as the stage expander, and the real centre processing 🙂
Love that epoxy gun. Nice work my friend. You keep amazing me how far you’ve come!! 👍👍👍 Oh that CD brings back memories. What did you end up crossover points?
Cheers Clint I'm always pushing to improve 🙂 So fronts hpf at 90 12db found a bit of overlap helped with the upper midbass so lpf was 100hz on 18db for the midbass, factory center channel ran from 250hz up to 10k. It honestly sounded damn good for what what was in there. Every one at work agreed haha
@@wickswirescaraudioandfabri7730 That's good to know... I've got them in my vehicle, but currently not on an amp... Amp will go in soon, then I shall see how they go... Originally I was going with some Hertz, but I can't fit a 6½ in the back, so Maestros it is, as I didn't want to mix brands... I'm the only person I know that's using the brand, so never had any feedback on them until now...
They are a great speaker. I have used them a lot through work and have had nothing but good experience with them,. Oh yeah get the amp behind them and they will come alive. Don't be scared to get something a little over rated as the ratings are the the same 75Wrms all the way up to the $3500 M-Lines and trust me they take more than that. What sort of amp have you been loomking at?
@@wickswirescaraudioandfabri7730 I'll have approximately 80wRMS on each of them... Alpine Class AB 4ch... It's a relatively small cabin, so it should be plenty... If it's not, amp upgrade!
Thanks mate 🙂 I did do a small tweak on it but wasn't on film. I will do a lot of my tuning from crossovers and levels and use the eq last. That's all I will normally do on an initial tune as well, when it comes back for it's re-tune I will get the rta out and do a check over. But from the way it sounded already, it's not going to need much at all 🙂
its very frustrating that he got out of the car just before the bass starts. because thats usually a very very big upgrade on a proper tuned car. bass goes from some wobbly mud to actual tight kick in the chest.
I have a 2016 bmw 528i. I’m trying to locate the wire colors for the front door speakers. Can you help me?

so how do you set the front passive system ? HPF only? LPF bypass
@TMCHL Correct, it's a passive active system, so the mid and tweeter in the door run a high pass of about 150hz, then the underseat sub is playing from that frequency down on a low pass filter 🙂
Do you remember the mounting depth of those speakers or what is the max depth we can put in these f10 doors?
They were german maestro Concept CS4008, so they are 43.5mm deep. you can go a little deeper from memory but not a whole heap :)
@@wickswirescaraudioandfabri7730 thanks.
Perfect installation !!

What happened to the OEM amps and never show the new amp connections?..

Where's the best place to get the Match UP7 in Australia?
We are happy to sell and ship it to wherever you need from Phatt Audio 🙂 Where are you located?
@@wickswirescaraudioandfabri7730 Thanks. How much shipped to Brisbane?
Ill find out for you tomorrow and let you know mate, send the shop an email at sales@phattaudio.com.au with your details and postcode and I'll work it out for you 🙂
Match / Alpha one / hi-fi harmon kardon?
Great OEM style upgrade and looks like a very happy customer. What was the masking material you used for panel protection?
Thamls mate the customer was over the moon 😊 Its a Tesa protection tape i will try and get the part number for you if i can 😁
Has anyone used the augmented bass processing settings on the 7 UP amp?
I've looked at that setting a couple of times in other helix/match products but haven't had a chance to play around with it as of yet. It's on my list of things to try as well as the stage expander, and the real centre processing 🙂
What is the name of the song? Please and thank you
Gee, thanks for the heart. I still have no idea what the song is tho...😅
Where is rear speakers???
Love that epoxy gun. Nice work my friend. You keep amazing me how far you’ve come!! 👍👍👍

What are your thoughts on those Maestros?
Really nice speaker all round Very detailed and accurate. I'm actually about to put gm status in my car 🙂

Nice video, well-done mate. Have you done any EQ tuning / check speakers frequency response? Haven't noticed it. Otherwise thumbs up.

@@wickswirescaraudioandfabri7730 Let me know when you do that... curious to see it done. Just subscribed:-)
