    Eclipse 7200mkII tuning/setup

    I haven't even messed with the time alignment settings yet. It's going to take a good deal of "in-car time" to adjust everything accordingly. I'm hoping the MEI100 mic will give me a good baseline I can tweak. You can use the e-iserv website to set the time alignment and crossover settings...

    Eclipse 7200mkII tuning/setup

    Thanks. I'm not even sure this thing has a "loudness" setting lol. It has something called "harmonizer" and CSII (some kinda surround effect setting). Both are disabled. I'm still figuring out the many, many things this HU can do. It's an awesome unit.

    Eclipse 7200mkII tuning/setup

    My gains were about 50-60% on the sub and front channel. I cranked both of them all the way down...didn't have much time to test it last night but **** these are some STRONG outputs!! The sub needs a bit more level but the front stage is super with the gain all the way down lol. I'll adjust...

    Eclipse 7200mkII tuning/setup

    Yes, the 7200mkII has 8V outs (advertised at least). I'm going to adjust the gains way down from what I had them set w/ the Alpine unit. From what I've heard I can lower them to nil and have 70-80%% volume with the 8V outputs. I had to increase them due to the weak outputs of the Alpine...

    Eclipse 7200mkII tuning/setup

    It was working as of this afternoon . I usually run an 18db slope on my mid/low pass and 12 on the high.

    Eclipse 7200mkII tuning/setup

    After my second Alpine HU failure in two years I purchased an Eclipse 7200mkII monday and installed it last night. Couple of questions.... I downloaded the e-iserv configuration for my car (2007 mustang gt), loaded it up and it sounds...well not so good. I have Morel Hybrid Ovation 6 front seps...

    9887 vs ida-x305

    I have the imprint module. don't care about the 9887 eq functs and never plan to play cd media again, only lossless via my hdd. could care less about ipod, iphone or any other apple bs.

    9887 vs ida-x305

    but that's debatable. the 9887 has some of the eq abilities of the imprint setup, which I already have so it's basically down to "does the 4V output of the imprint measure up to the 9887" ? I won't go back to cd's....EVER and use lossless format media so does the 9887 offer me any advantage?

    9887 vs ida-x305

    Actually I could care less about "works with iphone or ipod". I use an hdd with lossless files and only listen to digital media. I may just keep the x305 with my imprint module if custom sounds give me a hard time. the only thing that bothers me is alpines suggestion that the imprint is 4v...

    9887 vs ida-x305

    Purchased from custom sounds in austin. I'm not happy with those guys..... May just return the x305 and purchase the 9887 from some online retailer telling them goodbye forever. After seeing the huge NO REFUNDS on their invoice I may be stuck w/this effin thing...well not "stuck" but know who...

    9887 vs ida-x305

    I replaced my ida-x001 today with the ida-x305 but since the bt module has been outdated and doesn't work I'm thinking of returning this thing tomorrow and going with the cda-9887. no comparison right?

    Alpine IDA-X001 - Unsupported MP3 format

    I noticed this myself w/ the ida-x001. Drove me a little crazy because of the fact that I couldn't go back past these files but they did play ok. Never dug into it, just thought I had some unsupported file type and wrote it off. Purchased the new ida-x305 model today and will install it...

    Anyone pulling hair tricks in a new Mustang?? Or atleast have a system...

    Nice setup. I've been drooling over that 13w6v2 in the stealthbox...I'll probably shell for it eventually..once my suspension, supercharger, driveline and other projects are done lol.

    system dead

    I'll see where everything is grounded tomorrow. I know the amp is grounded really well via 0 gauge under the rear seat. Noticed it when I removed the rear seat to replace my upper ca mount. I'll check the HU as well. Thanks. I'm looking at some pics of this HU and it definitely had an...

    system dead

    Sounds like a good deal but I have Alpines hands-free bluetooth and imprint modules, both of which still have power. It will have to be another alpine unit for me. Haven't looked at it again yet, worked 10 hours today with AT&T techs upgrading TX border port of entry wan circuits via...
