    Can I just replace my crossovers?

    By any chance can anyone else help me out here? I'm really stuck. Is it likely that third-party crossovers will be satisfactory? Thanks again.

    Can I just replace my crossovers?

    Thanks for there response. I already have an active crossover in a signal processor, but I have midbass installed taking up the Front 2 output.

    Can I just replace my crossovers?

    Pretty much a relative Noob to Car Audio. I know most of the basics but only get up to date whenever I'm shopping. Anyhow, my crossovers appear to be failing on a 10 year old set of Boston Z6. I tried to replace them with used ones, but those were problematic as well. My question is, can I...

    Finally got around to TUNING !

    I did the same thing with essentially the same TrueRTA setup. Got it as flat as I could... Sounded like a big steaming piece of crapola. But using it, I did learn where the issues were, which this time weren't all too bad, since the reinstall. Oh and my sub was at zero as well otherwise I...

    Thanks dude, I knew what I was getting into posting it in this forum. I am just sad I didn't get a single comment on the EJECT button... The lone thing *I* installed.

    Me, I wanna get another car with a single DIN unit just so I can wrap it around an Alpine IDA-X001. That is a secksy unit even if it doesn't play CDs. Oh and I made the auto tranny mistake with my last Mustang. Was too used to driving in LA where it ***** to have a manual in traffic jams...

    I wanted to, I really did, but I really didn't wanna screw it up. I tried to finish it and fix the crappy install but after I blew up a woofer from a set of Z6s with a test tone while setting gains, my wife told me to go ahead and let the pros handle the job. So I decided that if I was...

    It's not like I said, I want a system let's see what equipment I can piecemeal together. I researched, researched, researched and researched some more. Had specific needs & challenges for this car, not the least of which was that I wanted to keep some trunk space yet get as much power as...

    Well, I did pick up the car used for about $26K last year. The equipment goes around $11-12K retail and is a bit skewed because it's an expensive alarm, about $1,000 with all the extra features added and the navi system is like $1,700 but it's about as sweet a nav as there is. The amps, well...

    Well, they are not visible. And unfortunately, they forgot to take pics when it was all taken apart. I can post a pic of them in the original install:

    Well, after nearly a year since first buying the car, system is fully installed, fully tuned and sounds fully freaking awesome. Big thanks to Speakerworks in Orange, CA for their outstanding job at re-doing a really, really bad install that I had done at a cheapo shop. Folks, it's been said a...

    Anybody do a HU install on a late model Toyota Avalon?

    Further update in case anyone goes a'searchin for Avalon. We got one WITH the JBL system and SpeakerWorks was able to do it no problem. They relocated the factory head unit to the trunk with a custom harness and did a custom trim piece for the HU. I only recommend doing this with the very...
