i have my sub at 63hz/18db, mids playing from 80hz/18db to 2k/24db, tweeters are playing from 2.5k/24db and up.

where did you mount your tweeters? have pics of your install that i can see? just curious since we have the same car.

Remember his crossover and amplifier make a difference i.e. thd etc.

tcguy i understand the sub and tweeter settings but the mids??? is that bandpass? how u do that? btw i havent installed my 701 yet just wana get some info before i do

 

[maloy013 10+ year member]

i have everything on the stock loc mids and tweeters....is that bad?

yea, you will be band-passing the mids. the h701 will allow it.

the stock location is ok for the tweets but they will be better down in the kick-panels. you could try them where they are and see how it goes but if they sound harsh or bright it's because of the location.

the stock spot for the mids in the TC is actually not bad at all. just deaden and seal your doors and you'll be set as far as that goes.

one common problem ive seen with that processor is a feedback sound remember volume levels are being controlled by both units and they tend to conflict with eachother

if its like the active processor that was on my 9855 itll have option for mid/high mid/low.
