    Time Alignment

    It is very important to apply TA to the midbass region (80-700HZ). Above that, amplitude differences has greater effect than time. So: TA for your mids and Eq youe tweets.

    DLS vs Seas in active setup

    I'm just starting to think about the seas. I don't know which midbass is the best companion to the seas. Any advise? I'm already running an active 3 way setup. I have found a big difference from the passive setup just changing xover points. That's why I just don't want to go back to a passive...

    Dash speakers, IB or free air?

    Hi, I have 4 inches drivers in dash. They are in fact mounted in a free air setup as the dash is not a closed design. I'm a bit worried about having cancellation problems. Should I try other setup, what do you think?

    How do you create a DVD Audio disc?

    I have an AXV1 JVC and it plays MP3 from a DVD with no problems. I burn the DVDs with Nero or Toast. It works the same as a Mp3 CD. I dont' know if the Pioneeer unit is prepared to read data DVDs (mp3s).

    Help, one channel lost power

    I run an active setup. Three way components and a sub. I powered the system with two 4 ch amps. The left channel moving the midbass sometimes lost its power. It is still some signal feeding the driver. If the system is restarted, sometimes it began to work normally. Sometimes if I crank up the...

    Active Or Passive

    If you want rear fill, run a pair of coax/triax from the HU amp.

    Budget Amps, do they worth the money?

    Thanks for your replies. I have fewer choices because I live in Argentina. electronics are expensive here. For example, a budget amp sells for 200 dolars and more.

    Budget Amps, do they worth the money?

    I'm facing a long travel on my wife's car. It had the stock Volvo system. As I wanted MP3 and DVD playback, I have intalled a new JVC HU. The new HU sound bad from the stock speakers (they sounded decent from the stock unit). Next move was getting some component speakers (DLS). I'm still not...

    Nakamichi PA-506 Advise

    I need a system for a new car. There is an used PA-506 for sale in a local forum. Nakamichi is known for quality in home audio but is this caraudio amp any better than the mainstream (RF, MTX, Kicker, Alpine, etc.) I like the specs: 6x50W, 7,5V input .... I'm planning on getting an Eclipse HU...

    Outboard electronic x-over in high end system?

    Not high-end user but same question here. Reason why? 1- Add control to the system. 2- I don't like the actual crossover points for the install. 3- 3 way mixed speaker brands. (midbass) 4- Using power better. Are this enought reasons for going active?

    Internal HU amp, any good used just for tweeters?

    How good (or bad) is the internal amp of a Pionner HU (4600)? I'm 2 channels short for runnning an active 3 way setup. (have 6, need 7/8) Could I power the tweeters (low power consumption) just from the HU amp using the passive and the rest of the setup from the active crossover/amps? Thanks

    Active, do you need to BP a 4"

    The stock passives are 3 ways. They have separate inputs for H-M-L. (it looks as 6 filters in one box). What I'm wanting to do is lowering the 4" crossover point a bit, so I could just use the passive for HP the tweeter. I have 4 ch bandpass in the active but I don't have individual amp...
