    Setting HPF & LPF with only test tones?

    Hey all, So I've got my gain properly set on my amp by using a DMM and now I'm on to setting my filters. I've got a 4 channel amp with 2 channels to the front speakers (its a truck so only fronts are amped) and 2 channels bridged to a Alpine sub in the rear. My question comes to setting the...

    10 sq. ft sound deadener between 2 doors. HELP!

    Hey guys I was gifted 10 sq. ft of sound deadener by a friend who had it left over from a build. I know it wouldn't be very expensive to just buy more but money is super tight being a college student. I'm trying to make it stretch between 2 doors. The car is a 1998 Chevy 1500 Silverado...
