Pretty sure I’m going this route. I’ve been happy with the CDT components in the Ram. I already have leftover Mx-1000 cross overs that I got with my three ways before. They are running full active through my Helix v eight DSP. I also already have a 5ch amp(4x100, 1x300w). With this amp my...

I appreciate all the input. I’ll check it all out. I forgot to put in the initial post, that I have some 5 ch CDT amps leftover. I was thinking one of those would work out. 4x100/1x300 at 4ohms. My wife won’t likely want a separate sub enclosure in the rear. That’s why I was looking to sneak...

So flat can be synonymous with bright? I assumed otherwise…shows my level of understanding. Speaking of mixing or mastering, the way it’s setup now, some stuff sounds great. I have a new appreciation for whoever did work for the Dire Straits. So far, it sounds the most accurate with the way...

Definitely not blowing them off and didn’t mean for it to sound that way. I’m taking it back and explaining what I’d like to achieve. There’s somewhat of a language barrier, as I’m a neophyte. I’m doing my best. I know what I want it to sound like, just struggle to convey that. Fatiguing is a...

We are selling one of our new cars because our needs are changing; one of us will be driving much less. I have a 2006 Honda Element that’s been non op’d for quite some time. Looking to get it back on the road. My wife and I will be stripping it down, applying some deadener, and adding new audio...

I’m going to ask for the file for the tune when I go in next. Also considering getting a separate tune from a different Helix dealer for comparison. If I can avoid that I will because shop rate is $160-200/hr in town. The initial tune was $300. I’m hopeful the first shop will get it much closer...

Not really happy with the sound yet. It’s way too bright. On axis mid and tweet may not help. The shop I took it to for tuning is a high end shop. They are the guys who sold me the helix v8 DSP. The type of shop where component sets start at a couple grand. They thought CDT’s recommended...

Remaining gauges installed and took it to get tuned.
