Hey guys I’m sharing a build I did a few months ago on a 2017 Tesla Model S. Everything technology wise is this vehicle is pretty nice , except the lack of quality audio performance. Customer wanted a very nice sound quality sound system upgrade. In these types of newer vehicle that have everything integrated into the multimedia system, you can’t remove the stereo like in the old days to get better sound. The t components need to stay to keep everything in loop working properly. The best way to achieve better sound is adding a digital sound processor (dsp). This allows you to tune each speaker individually to the vehicles cabin environment. Also most factory amplified systems these days are heavily equalized that we have to detune the system to get a good flat signal to start with. Which requires calibrated microphone, rta software, laptop ect. So a lot of planning and time goes into setup everything properly before getting to the building stage.
The build design I went will was Totally stealth build with high-end Audio Frog GB Series 3-way front stage Speaker components. Filling and blending the bottom end is a single Audio Frog GB10 10” Subwoofer in a custom sealed enclosure. Handling the power and processing is a Helix PSIX DSP / 6 Channel Amplifier 120w x 6 with hi resolution streaming via HD audio card. Powering the subwoofer is audiotec-fisher Match mono block 500 watt rms Amplifier. Take control of the audio system from the driver seat with multiple seating positions tunes using the helix Director touch screen remote. Allowing making sound adjustments on the fly. The Director controller allows multiple sources via the touch screen controller as well.
Every full system build I do, I sound Deadening all the trouble area and all doors, trunk, hatch areas. Goal is to keep all the noise out and sound inside the cabin. Eliminate any and all vibrations the system will produce with increased power.
Here are some pictures of the build
