Posted June 16, 20205 yr Hi first post thanks for letting me join . I recently had the following installed in a 1999 C5 Corvette . Kenwood DMX 7706s JL Audio HD 9001/5 Amp Morel Virtus Component 6.5 Soeakers (Front ) Morel Tempo Ultra 602 (Mid) JL Audio 10W3V3-4 Rear Sub ( with adjustable knob) The sound sounds real washed out with no “punch” to it . Any suggestion on what could be the problem .. or amp setting that I should check ? I would really appreciate any help . Driving me crazy ! I included a pic of amp settings .

June 16, 20205 yr and this is what we are here for. I cant tell where your gain is set from here. Never used a JL amp before, should the crossover settings be either on 12 or 24db setting? Edited June 16, 20205 yr by jcarter1885
June 16, 20205 yr Author Thanks ! I’ll have to check the amp settings . Sounds very washed out and muddled .

Not very crisp or punchy . You wouldn’t even think it had a decent amp behind it . It’s going back to the shop who installed it next week to get checked out . It was put together with very decent components imo. I’ve had systems that I’ve spent 1/3 of the money on . And sounded twice as good as this one . Could it be the quality of the Spotify files ? I stream everything. Thanks . Edited June 17, 20205 yr by Kwikr1
June 18, 20205 yr Streaming is a horrible idea for good sound. I can't comment too much more because we are just missing too much information, but I would venture to bet there are some phasing and/or cancellation issues present here. Any competent shop should have been able to handle that though. I am a bit suspect of the shop right now. Hopefully something just went wrong and they can get you on the right track. And just so you know, we require pics!
