    Help Needed: Tuning System

    I believe I have the frequency on my amp dialed in for both the components and sub. The music has a real nice blend, the sub seems to work very efficiently in concert with the components. My next question would be about the EQ settings on the H/U. Is it common to just leave the EQ setting...

    New subs today, Im dissapointed. I have questions

    I've got 350 watts going to a single Focal p30 12" sub, in a Focal built ported enclosure. That combo wasn't cheap, and it doesn't rattle my doors...but it sounds good as ****. It compliments my Focal ps165 flax components perfectly...all powered by one amp. I'm betting you told the shop you...

    Help Needed: Tuning System

    quick question, it just occurred to me that I have the x1/x10 button on the amp for the channels pushing my sub on the "x10" setting. initially, i was thinking x10 meant more power...but after thinking about it, doesn't that mean whatever frequency i have dialed in for the low pass x10? (80hz...

    Help Needed: Tuning System

    oh man...i better be happy with this for a while! you know, i started thinking about a system about 2 months ago...reading through this forum, I had it in my head that I needed 1000 watts into a sub to get it sounding good. seems that's almost the minimum guys are pushing into their systems...

    Help Needed: Tuning System

    Set the fronts to HP and dialed the frequency in the 80-90hz range, then dialed the sub frequency the same. I really didn't expect much change, but the clarity and sound jumped a notch...especially in the lower volume range. I had my doubts, but all my expectations have been surpassed! I...

    I had a hunch I was doing something wrong, but even with Full Range there was little to no distortion! I'll go back and set the HP on, and adjust the frequency dial a little more towards 80hz and see how that goes. thanks for the help!

    Help Needed: Tuning System

    After further listening last night, I think I have it dialed in nicely. The sound is amazing! However, I do question my method of switching the amp to full range to the components. I'm assuming by setting to full range, I still have control of the frequency by using the dial set on or around...

    Help Needed: Tuning System

    Got my car back from the install, and I'm needing a better understanding on how to tune the system. I realize there may be a "break in" period, and the shop has advised me to listen to all types of music and come back in a few weeks to have them take a listen and dial it in if needed. They...

    Thoughts on the Focal SB P 30

    Too deep, and I'll report back with what we come up with later today...I'm hoping an mdf ring is all that's needed.

    Thoughts on the Focal SB P 30

    The install shop ran into a problem with the focal flax 6.5" component woofers. They do not fit in the doors of my 2008 honda accord sedan...are there ways to fix this problem? Right now they are looking at options and going to get back in touch...

    which 100w rms components?

    I listened to both the focal ps 165 that you mentioned, and the focal ps 165 flax components...the flax sounded amazing, but they're a tad bit more expensive.
