Bronco Plug and play 1150W RMS amp replacement kit for B&O back in stock!

[WillinMA]

Well, I finally got the system tuned.

So in reviewing the system, I have to say that I am still getting to learn the software, but Fraser was an awesome resource. Without his help, I would not have been able to tune the system so quickly this morning by myself (took me just about 1 hour to individually tune each speaker and then integrate all the tuning in the main EQ).

It sounds amazing... It's balanced, powerful, and crisp. The sound is incredibly clean. While it would likely benefit from larger rear speakers (as opposed to the 4" Morel Maximo Ultra Coax 402 Mk II currently in the rear pods), I could probably make the same argument for every 4 inch speaker in the vehicle.

If there is one discrepancy, it would be the volume difference between using a blue tooth input and the radio. I don't remember the difference being there before (mostly because I don't typically use the radio) and I strongly suspect that this problem is on the Ford side of the equation and not the MoBridge amplifier. It would be a nice feature if the amplifier could mitigate this difference between the gain on the radio and any Bluetooth devices.

While the software wasn't intuitive for me, I am not an audio guy or electrical engineer, it's fairly easy to use once you learn your way around. For tuning the system you will want to invest in a calibrated microphone and download software for acoustic analysis (I used REW and a UMIK-1).

In the end, I am very pleased with the results and the cost of the system. Although I am not an audiophile, engineer, or musician; I highly recommend the MoBridge and Fraser as a typical person who likes good audio quality. This is what the factory should have delivered as a premium sound system.

Glad you got your system tuned!! I gotta get Fraser to help me do that as well! I bought the mic and downloaded the software. I'd invest an hour just to make sure I got everything dialed in correctly!

Let me know if you want my rax file, I would be happy to email it to you. I have Morel Maximo Ultra Coax Mk II 402's/602's with a Kicker 48TRTP122 subwoofer.

Thanks for the offer but I actually started with the file Fraser supplied as I’m closer to their set up used to test… The starting file he gave is actually quite good for my setup ( components up front, 6.5 in rear , 12” sub on tailgate) but I’m curious what would get tweaked if I did a full sound config!!

Happy to give you a hand, just let me know when suits you!

**Further 2 door owner update**
@Rat Has just finished installing a Stealth box and our amp in a 2 door and it doesn't fit without modification.

It looks like the easiest way to go about mounting our amp in the 2 door is with a bracket like the MTI one and removal of the factory sub box all together.

Ya, the factory sub box is a no go, but seriously, it's not worth keeping. I also have a 2 door, I am still using the MoBridge mount but I mounted it where the sub-box used to live. I still had to modify the panel a bit to make it fit well.

My system sounds so much better... I was listening to some Metallica (Blackened) this morning and the sound was just out of this world, especially when you hear the bass drum, sounds like you're in the room with it.

I really don't want to remember how it sounded before I made the jump. Worth every penny.

Hi all,

I have just finished off some software that changes the behaviour of the bass control in the headunit. This now sets the subwoofer gain instead of just applying a bass increase in the master gain, which just applies to your woofer channels.

This is basically as close as youll get to a "sub woofer bass knob"

Email me if you want a copy of the firmware to try it out.

I'll have a stock + jl stealth box calibration file available in the next couple days.

Shoutout to Mobridge!

I installed the Mobridge in my B&O Braptor Friday. I'm a JL fan so I went with the C2's everywhere but the center channel and sub.

Mobridge made the factor sub sound much better but it's too powerful cause it's popping. That will be updated soon but its fine at lower (wife acceptable) levels. Ticking in the factory center channel but that will be either updated or disconnected.

Installation was easy, save yourself some time and just remove the AC controls unless you have doll hands.

It's expensive but its an amp and dsp in one. A quality DSP/Amp will run about the same cost but you will still need a module between the Bronco system and your amp. Mobridge eliminates that plus it's very do it yourself so you can save on install labor no to mention this eliminates the stock amp. So, you grab an molested free signal.

Thank you for the kind words!

The ticking in the center channel is actually an introduced bug in the latest 4.1 software. This should be fixed in 4.2 which will be released by the end of the week!

Fraser/@mObridge - would you guys be able to provide a diagram to connect SCV subwoofers? For both 2 and 4 ohms single coil connections?

Thanks a lot!

What shop and area are you located at?

 

[thenewjs]

Has anyone, added a sub to mobridge? Im trying to add a Jd/1000 to power a 13tw5.

I'm trying to identify the connectors MObridge uses to connect the power and ground. They look like headphones jacks.
