00:00The reaction when we pull up in the Solosound H2, it's always a wow.
00:07We usually start with sound quality and just get used to that.
00:11We just blam them on the bass.
00:13I'm Raphael Capone, the owner of the Solosound Studios Group, and here we have the Solosound H2.
00:44The amount of speakers in the Solosound H2 is 86.
00:50We want sound quality at loud, natural volumes versus just blaring, hurting your ears loud.
01:01We've had many clients that use Solosound Studios.
01:06T.I., Future, Justin Bieber, Rocco, Jeezy.
01:16The Solosound H2, we use it for marketing, promotion, brand awareness, charity, competition.
01:25Thank you everybody for showing up. I'm sure Jason's smiling.
01:35We average at least 100 car shows a year. That's not including meets.
01:48We average just over 250, sometimes 300 to under 300 trophies a year.
01:57I got something to say.
01:59I made the Solosound H2 because it isn't the first of its kind.
02:03In 1990, when I was still in the military, my first show vehicle was built, and that was my passion.
02:12Of course, I wanted to open up a recording studio, but I wanted to do both.
02:16So I built a show vehicle. It was called the Motown Soldier.
02:20It became world famous back then.
02:23We got this in the end of 2014. In 30 days, we put all the LED lights on it.
02:28We got a system going in it. We put the wheels on it. We put the graphics on it.
02:33Started doing shows, and it was cool.
02:37When building it, my main focus was sound quality.
02:40I wanted to be loud, but I wanted sound quality.
02:42I wanted to what I hear in the studio to hear on the road.
02:44All of our speakers are doing different things.
02:48We have six tweeters, 14 horns, 12 subs, eight mid-bass speakers, eight mid-range speakers.
02:57We've been told up to three miles away, we've been heard.
03:02Sometimes on the weekend, I'll prepare for a show, and I'll be testing and tuning, and a cop pulled up.
03:09I was like, heck, I have a championship show tomorrow. I'm trying to set the system.
03:13He was like, I was 2 1⁄2 miles away and just followed the sound to you.
03:17I was like, okay, I'll cut it off.
03:19He was such a nice cop. He said, I'm going to give you 15 more minutes.
03:22I'll cancel all the 911 calls, just complaining about the sound, and get your system right, and I hope you win.
03:29I was a little bit upset, but I was going to be good.
03:32cancel all the 9-1-1 calls just complaining about the sound and get your
03:36system right and I hope you win and I took those 15 minutes and I set the
03:41system and we did that show the next day we came back with 12 trophies one show
03:46trying to get 86 speakers 11 amplifiers three miles of copper wiring three
03:53alternators seven batteries DSP and a vehicle this size everything had to be
04:01designed
04:22even our pillars which are easy overlooked our custom pillars that house
04:27tweeters of course we have a red chrome wrap with the red chrome matching wheels
04:31and then we have all of our microphone switches so we can cut on up to five
04:35microphones and have five live mics going at the same time because we have a
04:41studio grade mixer this is my favorite microphone so it stays up here with me
04:46but the mics we let people use are in the back a nice iPad and a dash and all
04:54our switches have been moved but the coolest thing we pull our iPad out we
04:59still have our radio controls on a quick glance that's the Soul Asylum H2 a very
05:06diverse multi control 86 speaker mobile stage sound quality SPL build a nice
05:16thing about the Soul Asylum H2 is it isn't slow it's top speed 105 miles an
05:21hour in this big beautiful heavy vehicle I'll let you guys just think about what
05:26it could possibly cost but we did buy the Hummer used for $40,000 and if you
05:33just take our amps and speakers in a box unshipped from Match Pro Audio you're
05:39looking at over $35,000 just in a box that's I can give you on prices if we
05:47ever sold H2 it would definitely had to be someone that was gonna use it for
05:50charity or use it for what we're using it for it couldn't just go and be locked
05:54up in some garage if someone offered me money to buy the Soul Asylum H2 without
05:58hesitation it would be for a quarter million dollars. When it gets dark the Soul Asylum H2 is
06:04bananas we have won world titles for our LED lighting interior and exterior I'm a
06:13very humble person but we made people change up their lighting game we're very
06:17competitive yes I go to the shows to compete and to win because I'm there
06:22representing my company at the same time, so we want the money, and earn it.
