Ideal Aftermarket Audio System for Model S

[EVortex]

Hi, what sub is best after market to use with Light Harmonic amp (do you recommend gen 3)?

Thanks.

I like SoundQubed 8”. Check some of the prior posts for their current generation. I tested LH sub and was not impressed as I was with SoundQubed.

Do you have a pic and how do I replace them? Do I need to remove the pillars? TYIA

Sorry, no pics, but you will have to remove the pillar trim. Once exposed, you can see how the tweeter fits into the plastic enclosure in the stock set-up. I snapped the stock tweeters out and snapped the Morels in. On the Morels, I had to separate the tweeters from their default enclosures. The only other thing I did was to remove the high filter capacitors, but I could have kept them I suppose.

Did you have to remove the pillar to get access to the tweeters? Thanks.

Yes. It’s been a while so I don’t remember all the details, but it seems like there is a cover or a cap that needs to be opened to gain access to the primary bolt. I also remember something about having to remove the side covers on the dash. Maybe someone else with a better memory or recent experience can comment.

How to remove the pillars? Also any soldering work would be involved or this method is just plus and play thanks so much for answering my questions

I had a SoundQubed 8" Dual Coil that I wired to 1ohm. Worked great, and still works, but I have long since moved from the car. Im not sure about the availability of the soundqubed sub. You may want to reach out to them to find an equivalent.

May I check with you on how to wire to 1ohm and whats the advantage of that? Thanks

Advantage is to use both could on the sub, and performance.
