    Head unit smoking while trying to use DIY USB to Jack cable

    This might be the best thread on these forums and there's only a dozen posts so far. Thanks for a good laugh OP!

    high/low pass filters

    10-4, Thanks. That should hold me over until I get an 80prs.

    high/low pass filters

    Well what if I were to set the HPF for the rear's on my headunit to say, 63hz and set the LPF for the rears on the amp to 250hz. Wouldn't that create a band pass for the mids? Or would that not work?

    high/low pass filters

    Well I can install the mids and have them work with my current headunit. I just wont be able to control the frequencies exactly as I want, correct?

    high/low pass filters

    Headunit is in my sig but am probably going to switch to a deh-80prs. Either way I believe both are capable. My 4 channel amp has a high pass (80-1200 Hz) for channels 1&2 and low pass (50-250 Hz) for channels 3&4. Sub is on its own mono amp. I'm currently running passive with my front...

    high/low pass filters

    Well, looks like the search function is working again. Found some answers. Seems like most prefer to set their filters at the headunit for ease of adjustments on the fly. Guess it doesn't matter much. If anyone thinks differently, feel free to chime in.

    high/low pass filters

    I tried to use the search function to find some answers/advice but it doesn't seem to be working right now. I am wanting to set my front stage to play 250hz and up, while the mids (new addition to the system as I never used dedicated mids before) would handle everything between 63hz-250hz and...

    budget 4 channel vs higher end, is there a sound difference?

    Haha, actually you couldn't tell what he was saying. He never actually says "fa" in the entire video. It's always "ba" but your brain is tricked into believing he says "fa" because of what you see with his lips.

    M165X woofer vs Silver Flute

    I've been looking into a pair of budget 6.5" woofers and think I have it narrowed down to two so far. I looks like the M165X with the XBL^2 motor would be a really solid driver but I've also heard some nice things about the Silver Flutes. Any opinions on these two? I'm leaning more towards the...

    looking for a new component set

    It's awesome. It's only seeing about 450 watts max but its also in 3 cubes sealed. Very large box for 1 12" sealed but that's what that sub calls for. It's crazy accurate and plenty loud enough for me.

    looking for a new component set

    I'm looking for a good 6.5" component set for around $150. I don't need anything with bright or aggressive tweeters but I am going to be without a sub for a little while so I'd like something with good midbass/bass capabilities. I know a mid-bass driver isn't a sub (I am going to add a sub soon)...

    Left front speaker working only intermittently

    Well, I checked connections at the crossover and they are all solid. What's weird is that it seems like when I start the car, the left front woofer/tweeter combo will either work or not. If it works, it seems to stay working with no problems regardless of volume. If it doesn't work when I start...

    Left front speaker working only intermittently

    So before I start tearing everything apart to find the problem. I thought I'd get a few suggestions from the experts to give me a starting point. A few days ago I noticed that my left front door woofer and tweeter stopped playing. At first I thought maybe they were just blown because I did have...

    budget 6-3/4" midbass

    What are your thoughts on a trade for a pioneer premier deh-p780mp Head unit? It's got the patented blown pico fuse but I've been using it in my car for years (still using now) and works great with the grounding work around.

    budget 6-3/4" midbass

    hmm do you know the mounting depth on those? I think I only have a max mounting depth of about 3 1/2 inches to play with, maybe less.
