[QUOTE="i2ain2thunder, post: 8118844, member: 631331"] Here you go buddy, this helped me when I was working with EQ. [URL="http://audio.tutsplus.com/tutorials/mixing-mastering/8-easy-steps-to-better-eq/"]8 Easy Steps To Better EQ[/URL] cliff notes: to find what frequency to boost/cut, listen to your music, find an instrument that you want to stand out or cut back in the mix, boost a frequency up untill you find what frequency affects that instrument. Now a general rule of thumb cutting is a better option than boosting for sound quality. cut narrow boost wide (if you can change the width of the band) ^^above post was actually made based on title of thread. Reading your post, I agree with the fact you need a crossover more than anything. A crossover will cut off frequencies from getting to your speakers, (I.E. low bass frequencies). A crossover can be a LPF (low pass filter) or HPF (high pass filter) For cutting the low frequencies off to your speakers you want to setup a HPF (you can buy a passive HPF, or use an active HPF built into your HU, or amp).
