The LC2i did end up being better than the epicenter for this application because the factory subwoofer signal is robust and full strength from 20 Hz to what sounds like a 12 dB rolloff around 180 Hz or so. But I have a 15 volt DC output from my amp board to power the LC2i. You’d have to find a...
I had the same issue start last friday and assumed it was my home charger. Went back and forth with service through email and eventually figured out it was the truck unable to accept AC charging. So is that 4 of us that had the same problem start in the same week? Unfortunately, my crappy local...
Has anyone with aftermarket 24” wheels done any range testing? I believe Nitto Grapplers are the only option to keep a ~35” tire diameter. Going to a 26” wheel opens up some all season options, but I feel like it starts to look a little goofy at that size
After seeing this post, I decided to finally call them to talk about the powershare credit. I got a beast before 5/23, but was ineligible for powershare, so I got 1 year free SC and $1100 voucher, much short of the $6500 worth of powershare equipment and install credit I was expecting. So I...
First of these that I’ve seen on a Cybertruck. This is the TMaxx Gloss Liquid Platinum from T Sportline, the precut kit with rollover edges. Its essentially the same color as Pure PPF Platinum, but less than half the price. With the Black Friday coupon, it was about $1500. This was my first time...
This is the TMaxx Gloss Liquid Platinum from T Sportline, the precut kit with rollover edges. Its essentially the same color as Pure PPF Platinum, but less than half the price. With the Black Friday coupon, it was about $1500. This was my first time to wrap a vehicle and I did rush a bit, so...
I wrapped my truck the other day with gloss PPF, pictures to come when everything is done. I meant to order yellow vinyl Foundation Series decals but apparently didn’t, so I took some Avery Dennison Gloss Yellow vinyl and the Cricut and made my own. After several attempts at getting the right...
Setting expectations is important. I ordered a wrap from them last week and understood it would ship immediately after processing. I paid the extra for 2 day shipping and got the email that it had shipped on Tuesday, so I made plans to wrap it this weekend. It didn’t come on Thursday, so I...
It’s holding up fairly well with a few caveats:
-There’s faint rattling from several of the pieces of interior trim, kind of hard to track down, but not terrible.
-I never got to test the fans on the amp because they’re only activated when the amp gets hot. Turns out they don’t work, as...
I actually think they’re good enough, which surprises me. My concern with upgrading them is any aftermarket speaker will need more power for the same volume level (for the most part). The audio signal comes from I believe one of 3 body controllers, so to amplify them, there would be a lot of...
Thanks!
-I have never really understood why people prefer sealed boxes. I’ve always seen it as a compromise based on space. I know there’s some tightness and midbass loss with ported, but being able to shake the seatbelts at 25 Hz is more important to me than the midbass. I discussed this a...
Finally finished a project that's been in the works for awhile. Its 2 shallow mount 12's in a ported box and a DIY amplifier that you can read more about below. It runs off of the 120V plug in the center console. I removed the factory subs and ran the factory sub wires into an Epicenter Micro...
Just got 2024.32.5.3 update this morning. First update I’ve gotten with autopark and first time I’ve gotten any sort of update kind of early. Tried it out in my townhouse complex parking lot. It has a narrow unmarked one way lane, hand painted parallel parking spots that are like 28 feet long...
It doesn’t appear that way. I didn’t qualify for PowerShare when I first got the survey in like January or whenever, so in February I got an email saying I didn’t qualify for “installation” so “instead, Tesla will provide you with one year of free supercharging,” which should have meant that I...
Of course, everyone’s ears and listening preferences vary. I don’t consider myself an audiophile because I can’t tell you the difference in the “sound of an amplifier” and I don’t recall my listening experiences on a specific set of obscure speakers from 20 years ago. But I was a car stereo...
Very helpful to know, thanks! I don’t suppose you have any knowledge about how the audio signal is encoded and accessed digitally by the factory amplifier? I believe I’ve seen projects on other cars where the audio signal is accessed via CAN bus with a raspberry pi and a CAN bus interface...
I thought the same thing at first, then I measured that space out and to keep it flush with the sides of the console and using 3/4” mdf, you’d have to conform to every angle precisely to even get 1.2 cubic feet, and that’s without leaving space to downfire or figuring out how to get rid of the...
I’m in the process of adding subwoofers and it has been very difficult to find the correct equipment. More info to come on that, but things to know about do upgrading the existing speakers:
1) any “upgraded” speaker will almost certainly be quieter without increasing the power. This is the same...
