hello.
Continuing with the theme of the vibe 65.4 amplifier, I have it mounted with an android screen, some eton b100w speakers and encoded to hifi. It sounds very good, but the subwoofers are barely noticeable, another colleague has the same thing as me but with the subwoofers also changed and does not notice the bass either. Consulting an installer, he told us that when you connect everything by plug&play, the bass also comes out through the doors, hence when you turn up the volume, the door speakers creak, so you have to separate them from the subwoofers, so I recommend place the powerbox 400.1 to separate the subwoofers. I told vibe and they confirmed it. In addition, by placing this 400.1 amplifier, you could put 2-ohm subwoofers, which from what they say, sound louder than 4-ohm ones, which you can't with the 65.4. now I am soundproofing the doors and the next step will be to install the powerbox 400.1 I have to wait a bit to do it. I'll mention it if anyone still doesn't notice much bass and the door speakers creak. Regards. |

I’d imagine adding the dedicated sub amp (440.1) from Vibe would make them come alive though. Still very happy with the upgrade though for what it’s cost, I’m not “missing” HK from previous f30 anyways Last edited by pwaf13; 04-23-2022 at 03:53 AM.. |

It's only a 6.5 inch and not a particularly good one, so additional power won't get that good of a result. Replace them with 8 inch Earthquakes.

Hey guys,
I recently upgraded my base system with Vibe amp + a set of vibe front door speakers with their underseat woofers. Everything works perfect, except when I scanned the car for fault codes the following show up and keep returning: B7F821: Loudspeaker output lines, front left: line interruption B7F825: Speaker output lines front right: line interruption B7F829: Loudspeaker output lines, rear left: line interruption B7F82D: Speaker output cables rear right: line interruption I believe this started after plugging the amp with dedicated loom provided by Vibe. Have you had similar issue after installation of optisound 65.4? |

Sorry to bring up an old post.
I just recently tried to install the vibe powerbox. It made a big difference to the sound of the base system but when it was installed I couldn’t get no Bluetooth audio. I just kept getting please wait. Tried to pair with the headunit via my iPhone but the connection just wasn’t showing. I removed the t harness and put the original quad lock back into the headunit and then my Bluetooth audio streaming appeared again. Any ideas how I can sort this as ideally I’d like to use the amp. Thanks. |

But still does anyone know the specs for the stock ones
Base audio underseat are 4 ohms. Power rating not stated but going by weight and magnet size these would be a low powered driver. Suspect 30-40 watts max. The most they get power wise in base audio is 25watts where the ASD module runs as the amp. Base woofer at bottom of photo |

This is the reply from vibe regarding the amp and no Bluetooth
Hi there You have not moved the optical cable (black and green cable with red light coming out) from the factory harness to the T harness Is it easy to take the cables outta the harness as I don’t want to knacker the wiring |

AFAIK there is no optical cable with the base radio.
