    What is it about rap(and pop)?

    I used to listen to rap a while back. I used to listen to a lot of 3-6 mafia. Then, went to hard rock, which i still listen to today. I think I will listen to 90% hard rock, the rest of my life. I did recently get some Gucci stuff, and its honestly not bad. I can listen to it. But most of...

    Alright, I have a 98 Grand Prix GTP. Just recently installed a system in the car (couple months ago maybe tops) I have blown 2 subs since (just blew the second one this weekend). I didnt think anything of the first one, as it was old, and I thought one of the voice coils was on the way out...

    help with 2 way active speaker setup

    10-4. Ill check it out here tonight and make certain. I will also set the TA by measuring, instead of just trying it by ear first. And by changing slope, you change polarity, your meaning if you run a 12 or 18db slope, to switch the polarity? As earlier I believe you said that makes them 180...

    help with 2 way active speaker setup

    Im sorry, but Im confused. I know for a fact the wiring on that driver was correct before i switched polarity. I used wire with a blue +++ on one lead, which went to the positive at the speaker, and the positive at the amp. All of them are marked, and Im very careful to make sure they get to...

    OK. Thats the part I didnt understand. So its for each speaker that your doing. (distance of furthest speaker minus the speaker your doing divided by 34).

    help with 2 way active speaker setup

    No... I know the polarity of each driver. They are all regular or standard polarity EXCEPT the drivers side midrange. I went through and isolated each speaker after I did my TA, then switched each individual speakers polarity to see if it sounded better/centered the sound better, or if it...

    I actually have the drivers side 5.25's phase reversed. It brought the sound stage closer to center so I left it. When I tried to reverse both of them it scattered the stage again. I will give it another shot here though. I'll try anything. Really appreciate the help! Im very new to this...

    time. They have a calculation that converts the distance in cm to ms. so i measured the distance to each speaker center from the center of the head rest in inches, converted it to CM, but then didnt know what to do from there.

    help with 2 way active speaker setup

    ngsm, I actually have the TA set. But I didnt measure. I did it with pink noise and isolated each individual speaker. Its not perfect, but its not bad. I also did the phase reversing of each individual speaker, then both as a pair. Everything ended up normal except the sub is reversed, and...

    help with 2 way active speaker setup

    The max I can fit in the door buckets is 6.5 with modification. Same if I decide to go with kick panels. I would just buy the Q-Logic kick panels, which holds a max of 6.5 as well. Obviously, the cheaper the better (I dont want to shell out 300.00 a speaker or anything like that, but dont...
