    Recommended Settings for My New KDC-X895 Deck, Speakers, & SubWoofer

    Well to have more control at the deck, I'd set the crossover to 120hz (or off if there's another switch to do that), and the bass boos straight up (which I hope is 0) as the deck can do that for you I think. "Bass EQ that provides for adjustments between +3 and -6dB." The gain will still need...

    Custom enclosures for Focal 165V1s?

    Yeah, if you want them used as they were meant to be, as large as you can go will give you the best free-air equivalent. If you want them to be more bass/mid heavy you can put them in a small kick-pod sized cube of like 0.2cu ft.

    Ipod sound leveling

    Is this the built-in leveling in the iPod? Because that **** totally doesn't work. It works on my PC's media player with mp3 and FLAC files. Would be nice if apple ever fixed it.

    Recommended Settings for My New KDC-X895 Deck, Speakers, & SubWoofer

    Well the first thing to do is decide whether you want to control everything from the deck, or lock some settings in by setting things up with the subs built-in amp. One case where you might want to do the latter is if someone else is likely to drive your car and they might F with your decks...

    headphone thread

    I've been rocking my AKG k501's for 10 years now. I've tried a number of alternatives but these have been the best balanced to my ears. Plus they are comfy, I've worn them for over 10hr without fatigue. Headphones are just like all audio products. Very personal tastes involved. If possible...

    Hertz/Audison MLK2 Bi-amp

    Bi-Amping sounds fantastic when setup right, that's a little bit much power for the tweeters. If you already have a lrx2.4 just be careful. If you were going to buy the amp, you don't really need much more than a 20wpc amp for tweeters.

    Home Theater Install Questions

    for the clean install you run everything in the wall. There are wall plate sets out there that do rca/hdmi connectors, but it is really just cheaper to buy a blank and cut a hole it it.... the plate will be hidden my the tv/speakers anyway.

    Fusion amps overrated?

    It probably can... dunno how the reliability is at rated power though.

    Monster speaker wire

    You leave it in there. Monster cable isn't the only company that uses an air space in the center of the wires.... it's pretty common in high end cable.
