Gen 5 Prime XSE Premium - Adding a powered subwoofer to the JBL system and need advice

I don't remember. If you email them they are very responsive.

 

I did reach out to them and they were indeed very responsive. I didn't ask about the pins, but rather on a secondary question that arose from looking at there website.

It seems the harness provides taps to both front and rear speakers. They can also add a 12+ switched wire for a remote turn on if needed. Pretty cool. when I'm ready I will hit them up and hope i remember this thread and ask about the pin swapping...that could get real ugly if it's something critical....and takes out the amp or something...

 

Interesting find there. I think I had purchased the first one they ever made. When I re-did mine I just hooked to the front channels which worked pretty well. This was before the service manuals were available, I just used an extra speaker to figure it out. Should be pretty straight forward now with the wiring diagrams being available. Unfortuntely I had to take my basspro nano out because I did the spare tire addition but I plan on doing a larger sub in an integrated box. Unfortunately none of the major manufacturers have come out with anything so I will fiber glassing it myself.

 

Hey PhoS,
I'm interested in your custom wiring harness you made...is there any way to make one and I'll be happy to pay for it and your time!

I like that your rear speakers are now useful!

I was considering the beatsonic route but now I'm deciding on the audiocontrol LC2i and JL 8" micro sub.

 

Have you started your install yet?

 

I have the JBL system and am going to begin installing a Beat sonic - Ena-2t3 and Beat sonic ACS-T02 with a Rockford Fosgate P300-8P this week when the final parts arrives. I went with the ENA-2t3 instead of the Ena-3t3 because the subwoofer controller ACS-T02 works with both units and will provide the RCA needed for the subwoofer out per Beat sonic. I did a lot of research and feel like this is the best combo for the money to upgrade the system. Special thanks to this forum and Beat sonic.

 

Installed and sounding great...fine tuning the p300-8p gain/boost etc... (also direction - either going to have sitting face up with port firing rear or sitting facing passenger rear fender with port facing rear). figuring the best securing points for those locations.
