    Unless I understood something wrong from your build.

    Installed an amp and subs over the weekend

    Thanks for the reply, I figured it out, needed a smaller relay to fire up that stinger relay. Resistor was getting hot because it was trying to handle all the wattage power going to the amp instead of the stinger. I’m moving into a bigger system so the resistor is removed and added a battery...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Never tried lower voltage amps just for that reason. Most of the higher wattage and branded amps support up to 16v, voltage has nothing to do with the isolator, there’s amps that draw more current and amps, the stoc electrics will trigger the computer and will give you error alerts and limit...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Just make sure your amp supports up to 15.5/16v I moved on from small wattage systems had all kinds of amps with stock electrical (meaning no extra battery) you can go up to 1000w with a few amplifiers without having to add a relay isolator and resistor. I’m currently on 2500w system.

    Almost had a Tesla wiring fire - what did I hook up wrong?

    I have the same issue and happened today with a resistor I used, was getting hot and when I increased the volume it started sending weird static signal to the subwoofer, after a few second burnt smell was coming and it was From the resistor. Had to yank the wires off the resistor to stop it...

    Installed an amp and subs over the weekend

    Hello guys, I have the 2023 Tesla Model 3 with the 16v. But the issue is that when I have the stinger and everything hooked up correctly that specific resistor of 100w 5ohm gets extremely hot. Will that be wrong gauge wires I used? Or faulty resistor? I used both resistors on the package that...

    Brother I’m in the process of ordering the parts for the dash speaker install. Did you use any kind of 3d adapters? Or these speakers don’t require adapters? Also what wires did you use? For $18 I found wired harness ready to go.

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    $3k? Who in the world would pay that money for a speaker and amp? I paid $300 for 12” subwoofer with enclosure, 750w amp and wiring kit from Skar. I don’t think the alpine will hit as hard as my current system.

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Yup, if swap them I really don’t care about door woofer producing bass at this point, I just want them to produce more vocals. I might try the 3 dash speakers next, snip the twitters from the 2 corner speakers and leave just the mid speaker with the twitter. And again I feel like I will not...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Thanks for your response, well I’ve added a bigger watt sub from Skar as well as an NVX 750w amp with no issues. Car is flexing at this point lol. I need sound deadening ASAP. What brand did you use? Also I’ve seen you swapped to the 8” Skars on doors, but my question is the ones you swapped...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Hey Brother, hope everything is well. Can you please give me links to the tool/speaker combo/ and the rest of the stuff needed to swap the 2 dash speakers? I’m very curious to see if there’s a dramatic difference if I change them. Thanks.

    Correct. No auto sense amp needed if you take that route. They shut off as well after they don’t receive signal.

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    my first amp was an Alpine m500 that had auto when high input was connected. Then decided to purchase the Lc2i pro and swap amps since my subwoofer was 1ohm and the alpine amp was producing 500w at 2ohms, I did run it for 2 days but you know that it will sooner or later, so I refund that amp...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Well yea, the harness did make an improvement especially on higher volumes. You can hear everything a lot clearer and the quality is much better with the twitters and the pillars added. For some reason I was only able to add 2 500w amps without getting an error code about unstable power...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Supposedly the wires I tapped where the left or right side door woofer (not sure what side but I can find out.) The LOC was needed just because the system and stock amp have a cutoff to protect the stock speakers from high volume. if you tune it well it’ll sound much better with the speakers...

    After Market Amplified Subwoofer and front speakers on a 23’ Tesla Model 3 RWD

    Hey brother, I did not try them yet but I have the amped adapters purchased. there’s one thing I’m unsure of and that’s why I did not try them yet, do the stock door woofers if get replaced with midbass speakers will function as voice midbass speakers? Meaning will they play higher voice...

    Yes, i just chose to go with an Alpine amp 500w that another guy had connected to a 2023 With no issues. Also i was so dumb when i was asking you about the door woofers, for some reason i was so confused that they were somehow woofer/speaker combo, but they are there only to produce the bass, so...

    Thank you for your recommendations! I realized that the amp I ordered has no auto sense/on, do you know where I can tap the Remote wire? Or do I really need it? Since the 16v on the penthouse goes to sleep after some time the vehicle is off?

    Nice I chose to purchase a Skar 500w mono block that supports up to 16v so I don’t have to mess with step down devices. Now since I am adding a subwoofer with its box, from your point of view, you feel like we still need midbass speakers in the doors? Meaning since the subwoofer will take...

    Thanks for your reply! I am going with a 12” Rockville, how did you figure out the 12v vs 16v? Did you buy a volt drop device?

Also i...
