    Taming JL XR650s

    T3mpest, I assume you referring to my tweeter location? What would you recommend, maybe swap out the comps with coaxs like my CXis in the rear? Also why would an auto-eq not fix the problem? What I read is that these "NEW" auto-eq units correct frequency response, time alignment, etc. based on...

    Taming JL XR650s

    Thanks for the input. I will wait to get an external processor that has auto eq like the soon to be JBL MS-8 (FIX8) or the Alpine H650. Unfortunately I do not trust myself to do the eq manually like some of the existing units (360.2/DPQ). I am convinced that this will be the best single upgrade...

    Taming JL XR650s

    I will take a look at the 3Sixty.2 option, sounds perfect for my application. Thanks. Jay Why does this unit not do its calibration after the speaker with a microphone? Is there a multichannel unit that does this? OK WOW, I may have to wait a bit but this sounds like dabomb...

    Taming JL XR650s

    Hi I am looking for some input on taming the high-end of the 650s. Since my tweeters are mounted in the window, I have my c/o set to -4.5dB for the highs. My system sounds very good but the "ssss" sound in vocals can be very harsh at louder volumes and I am wondering what options I have to...

    JVC KD-AVX2 DPLII -> No SUBOUT???

    yes it is the one with the 3.5 display. I was not planning on doing a review since I just do not have time. If you search around and read some of the user reviews you can get the general pros/cons with the deck. What I addressed in this thread regarding the bass management is not addressed...

    JVC KD-AVX2 DPLII -> No SUBOUT???

    OK the AVX2 bass management is AFU. Basically there is no 5.1 DSP so what you get from the source material in any MULTI mode (Dolby digital, DTS, DVD-A) is what you get. So for 2.0 and 4.0 sources your sound is going to be without bass. Anyway I have solved somewhat with a mixer with the SUBOUT...

    JVC KD-AVX2 DPLII -> No SUBOUT???

    Here is my situation with the SUBOUT when in MULTI modes. I am really confused on how bass management should be handled on the AVX2. 1) As stated above, for DPLII modes if front is set to LARGE, then there will be no SUBOUT -> OK this does not make sense but whatever, set it to small and...

    JVC KD-AVX2 DPLII -> No SUBOUT???

    I confirmed that in the manual, I will set my front speakers to small and see but sounds like a winner. What other affects will it have (i.e. does it affect the FRONT out signal)? I am running JL audio components in the front and Boston 6x9 in the back all pre-amp outs with internal amp OFF...

    JVC KD-AVX2 DPLII -> No SUBOUT???

    I just start working out the install of my AVX2 and I noticed that when I enable the Dolby Pro Logic II modes (for CDs) that the SUBOUT is silent. I know the SUBOUT is connected correctly since I can play 5.1 discs and adjust the sub on/off from the setup screen and I also have sub output in non...
