  1. The site is blocking most attempts at up loading files . I'm lucky to have gotten a couple of cutting table pix up .
  2. I'm considering moving the tweeters . Just not sure where yet . On some music they seem spot on . For instance; Bon Iver's song "Wash" sounds amazing . Clear ,clean and , very detailed . The sound stage seems perfect . Then I listen to Red Hot Chili Peppers "higher ground" and , I can't turn the highs down enough . The tweeters are so forward , and in your face it's unbearable. So I'm lost as to what my next move should be . Right now I just stick to listening to what sounds good , but my goal of having a system that can play anything is still in sight .
  3. I would love to find an affordable escalade to build . I'm tues it to see where this truck goes . Looks great so far.
  4. I'd like to hear more about the mids too . Build looks killer so far !
  5. I'm still reading up , bUT I'm not sure I'm understanding the aplication in car audio. Is phase coherence possible in a car ? Am I on wild goose chase lol?
  6. So... reversing phase is a band aid for actual driver timing issues ?
  7. Well... more bracing= more better . All thread isn't sexy, these braces are.
  8. A sneak peek of my new box . It is being built by Dave Marin of High Output Enclosures. It will be bed lined with a red port perhaps. It will have 5.0 cu ft net ,and is tuned @33 hz . I have two options for power . I can continue using two p1000x1's both have birth sheets of 1500 watt's , or I can use a synergy wfo 3500; but it'll have to be run at .5 ohm since I have dual 2ohm xcon 12's . Should sound great either way .
  9. http://greenmountainaudio.com/time-and-phase-coherence/ I'm reading up on the subject
  10. So.. after listening a bit I have realized by listening to each pair of drivers individually that I was really over driving my mids ,and highs . For example highs were , l ch -2 r ch -3; they are now -4 & -6. Same for the mids I turned them down a few notches ,and it actually didn't really reduce the overall volume of the system; but its sounding much clearer . It's strange after turning mids and highs down then bringing the subs back in; the amount of presence overall seems the same . It's just as loud ,but much better sounding . I did leave the lh mid reversed phase . Can phase be normal at the sub low/mid hi pass ,and reversed at the mid low/ high hi pass?
  11. I could just bring my laptop out . I'll check out the other app you mentioned . Thanks Sean
  12. T/a o's on , and I can see the distances it is set to . Any recomended test cd ? I see some tones ,and sweeps are available to stream online . Other than that I have thr rockford fosgate clean setup disk, but I think its only got a few tones .
  13. I reckon my readin is fine , but my arithmetic'en ain't to Good . Good day to all. I'm still listening with out subs .... I sure miss em . It has prompted me to lower the levels on the tweets a bit . So as of this morning it sounds best with the phase of mid low pass set to rev , and all other phase set to normal .
  14. Probably should have done it way sooner . Lol
  15. I bought it new . I had just had surgery, and had a shop install it . They kindly ran auto everything ,and disposed of the packaging . I actually downloaded the manual earlier on my phone . I'm reading over it now .
  16. How do I control the eq independently for each channel? I didn't know it could do that ?
  17. Ok . Headed to work now with the subs off , amps left alone ect .
  18. Ok I'll give that a try. Sub off .. check !
  19. I'll try a little on my lunch break , and after work if I can . So these amps have the c.l.e.a.n. setup on them . When Initially set them up I used -5 db for the mids /highs , and -10 for the subs . The amps have an input clip light , and it never lit on the test tones , all the way to the decks limit of 63. So now I have a lc1 that controls both sub amps . At 51 on music (some music) it lights red for input clip. The output clip lights are normal during these episodes, but the bass does distort , it kinda gets a nasally tone untill I turn it down . It doesn't do this for all songs .
