[QUOTE="jowens500, post: 8589154, member: 568158"] Full audio upgrade in a Lexus RX using only an iPhone as a source running directly into a Helix DSP Pro via USB audio. [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170819/611015d3df3ce950b7cb895a1b9af22c.jpg[/IMG] This is the Helix controller used for volume and sub level control. I built a little pod out of expanded PVC, a little Dyna-Glass and lightweight body filler. It's covered in matching vinyl and located within easy reach in the drivers location. [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170819/3d81b8fdd1d5d91a871a5aa05f25e85c.jpg[/IMG] The hatch was designed to be able to swap equipment out without much extra work. As of now, it's Zapco, JL Audio and a Helix DSP Pro. [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170819/630b80e822a64081a90b19097eb24b4c.jpg[/IMG] Sub duty at the moment is a single SI BMK 12". [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170819/1021d14e35d024738e41379de3bbfa73.jpg[/IMG] I spent a solid two days sitting on my legs wiring up this monstrosity of barrier strips. [IMG]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170819/1f8cd08d8fff8d867a217b66ffdb9b6d.jpg[/IMG] Helix DSP Pro with the mid bass, center channel and sub RCA's connected and run to the JL 900/5 HD amps.
