- Buy one! I will throw in a Koozie! - Yes sir SSA is the source for you.... - I'm sure it would hammer. - Thanks!

Thanks Randal. Got the new cases in yesterday.

Nice Shop Guys !!!

#3 - STX

nope. pretty sure it would sound completely shitty and extremely bad if this were the case. then all of lower notes would be sent to tweeter. but both tweeters play the 1000 hz and 2500 hz test tones fairly similar, except some minor differences

There are a few of us doing autocross.

Yes, they will be up on the store soon.

Multimeter checks resistance and voltage, not impedance. It can be helpful in trouble shooting but let's start with your ear. Play a 2500Hz sine wave on your stereo (Funcgen on your phone or other wave generators work). See how that sounds between the two tweeters. When something follows the driver, I'd expect it but your description of what has happened is a bit hard to follow. Using tones will help highlight the differences.

Perhaps stated more clearly. In the past 20 years none of my vehicles have EVER had both tweets and both mids all be in electrical phase.

ROFL. You can't read. You've never gotten me bent out of shape, I just feel sorry for your confusion and lack of comprehension. Tony is a money grubbing noob cheater and has shown no engineering aptitude. May claim that as a title, but hasn't proven it with capability. I am not German. Not even close. Glad you can show your maturity and incapability to read even further.

Billy Jack acts like a pre-pubescent teen and is butt hurt because when he says ridiculous garbage i correct him. Particularly hard on him since in general he is one of the most confused and misled posters i have seen on an audio site. Therefore to further show his maturity he marks my posts. I don't care however as rating or not it doesn't change the content of my posts. I am not in junior high...

Does the behavior completely follow the tweeter? It sounds likely but tones are better for comparing as your ear can co fuse you on music

Baffle on my 02 was 1" and fit under it. Some trimming required though.

They are behind and through the door panels.

I am lazy work without an sxoustic benefit i avoid

if you tuck it more and paint it the whole thing will hide under the stock screen.

You stop and buy them a beer?

I found the CTS-V to be rather mundane. With the power it had it should have been more exhilarating.

15F or -10F you need to dress the same. 15F might even be harder on you than us. Our 20F feels warmer than SoCal's 40F. Moisture makes a HUGE difference in the bone chilling nature of cold.

Don't get me wrong. -10F or more sucks to be outside in...although i have clothes that can more than deal with it.

At 40mph (normal trail speed) when it is -5F the windchill is -60F. Only big day on the sled so far this year was at -5F. You've seen my bars, my hands are exposed. Got a little chilly but I'm buying some bigger windscreens for them today!

Something like these:

Just afraid that grabbing and ungrabbing will piss me off.

That all being said, I'm running the D2904/60000 pretty off axis right now. Had those when I had the truck too...

They were somewhat lifeless. Frying bacon lol. The problem with metal is that there are a bunch of bad metal options. Otherwise no real problem that can't be designed around.

Not so sure he'd benefit from the horns.

Or not at all. To have any benefit of the horns you'd need to beef up the mids. Otherwise it just would add more imbalance.

Sure the roof is killing them? It should at lower levels too then which you can counteract with your body. Like anything that flexes it needs a heat converter and a stiffener if it is real bad.

Have you tried just playing single frequencies to see the same effect? It should help you "localize" the problem. Quotes are because it won't be so local...

Honestly that just sounds like cheap amps with a huge noise floor. I some how doudt it's the alpine I have used their stuff for years and always got great sound from them. I did have one go bad after 11 years and about 4 vehicles but even it still played and sounded good all but the CD player that stopped reading disks which might have just been dirty from a decade of dusty mountain roads. I would try by passing those NVX amps and hook one directly to the head unit and see how it sounds.

Could the wires maybe be backwards on the crossover?

Yea then it does sound like the amp though. I would try a tweet on your head unit and see if it still sounds bad if it does you know it's the tweeters and not the amp but honestly it sounds just like a cheap amp turned up to high. I hate that for you I know I always hate when I have system problems is so frustrating. Usually I have to just step back and think about the problem for a while then I can figure it out. Good luck.

Can't see how reversing the polarity and running the speaker backwards is gonna help the sound in a small car.

Just cut the end of the wire off so there is no metal sticking out of the coating and you want even have to tape it. You can always take off some coating when you go to wire it back up.

You say I act like a teen but you where the one who got bent out of shape because I didn't take your opinion as fact. And it isn't just me you are a pucking smartass to almost anyone who comes on here. Hell I was reading a old post where you mouthed off to tony D'Amore and that guy is a engineer so that says a lot about you. And as far as disliking post you where giving me bad rep for liking a ssa product so it's only fair I give it right back. I think the problem is your German you guys think yourself better then everyone but we all know what nazi's really are.
