Raising the sound stage...

[bzinn 1]

honestly I dont think I could listen to speakers that were not on an amp anymore.I like the presence of the sound filling the cabin,but not distorted and loud sounding,did that make sense....lol.

I have a set of 3" smaller mids I was gonna try on the apillers at the bottoms but the year is gettign away from me and tweets are still on a wire...

yeah lots of trial and error,and the worst part is then you throw in a persons taste for differant sounds,music,volumes,and tolerances for problems and it is hard to say what works best,but works well is always a good thing.....then tune tune tune...

I am hoping my tweets sound ok in that location when mounted in the pods as they did when I had them on the wire,I then stickytaped them to the pillars to double check,now to finish mount by the end of the month for toyota fest

good luck with your install and tell us how it is going

^preach it man! I'm on the home stretch on my install. I'll have six months of tuning before this system is comfortable. I have an IASCA and USACi event on August 21st. Do the math there.

lol, you're a bit behind When I tuned, I actually tuned the car with the x-overs and gains with my RTA, then flat-lined it. Then yes, it literally was months of final tuning. Then you get to the show and find out who the judges are, then re-tune for their preference. I once had a list of judges and their musical preferences!
