Ultimate Audio Setup 1LE
So I know that my 18' 1LE is intended to be a track car and not a Bass Head car but I love my music loud and clear. I am going to install all these parts this week and will post up a video once all is done and tuned correctly.
JL Audio HD750/1 subwoofer amp with bass level remote JL Audio Slash 300/4v3 speaker amp JL Audio FIX 86 Digital Sound Processor JL Audio 12w7 in a ported box with JL's exact specifications STEG ST650C Italian Hand Made Component speakers As of the moment I have only been able to put the 6.5" speakers in the doors. I used crutchfield for the install parts 6.5 speaker mounting bracket- Metra kit # 82-3018 costs $20 Speaker factory connect wires- Metra 72-5600 $10 I went to Home deport to get double sided foam to use around the speaker and mounting bracket so there would not be any vibration. That worked really well actually. Also I used roofing aluminum with rubber backing material as a vibration and sound dampener on the inside of the doors. Let me tell you guys, these speakers are amazing and I'm not even running them off my amp at the moment. Already 10 times clearer and louder than stock in my opinion. I could see myself being happy with just changing out the door speakers, but I'm going all out just like I do on my other cars. |

I wouldn't say ultimate, but definitely an improvement over stock

I have not seen any other 2018 1LE's with a setup like this yet. Pretty much spent a supercharger kit on Audio. Actually spent this on my Jeep but I'm putting it in the Camaro now. Going even bigger in the Jeep.

I have 2 arc audio black 10s in a custom built sealed enclosure, hybrid technologies clarus door amd tweeters, with an arc audio ps8 dsp unit, arc audio ks1200/1 class G/H amplifier and an arc audio ks300/4 amp. This setup sounds better than JL components by a decent margin in my opinion, for more or less the same price.

Admittedly, I didn’t use much of the necessary sound deadening materials in the convertible, but I still love the sound!

OK, maybe you guys beat me, but there are not that many people hooking up the sound system in these cars. I'm just happy with what I've done to my car. Have any of you guys sound proofed the floor or plastic panels and or trunk area. Ill be tackling that next. The W7 wants to rip the car apart.

I only use HAT drivers because they are the best in the world, at any price point, compared to the competition. Arc audio is known for making phenomenal amplifiers, I am running Audison Voce Amps in my other daily, but chose to try Hybrid’s class D amps for this setup... I am more than happy with the results! The only way to properly install a system in this particular generation Camaro (and maintain all factory functionality without disconnecting mics) is to use the GM 650 piece by NAV TV. DTA and DSP is optional but recommended I have a few links in another thread regarding proper sound deadening , which is costly and weighs a lot but is necessary for maximum SQ

I got the opportunity to meet with Miami_1LE yesterday and hear the system in his car and I was really impressed, great overall sound system.
