[QUOTE="cjfamman, post: 8671677, member: 676473"] Hi everyone, I have installed my helix dsp mini and have been playing with the tuning of my car for about 2 weeks now. I am using a pioneer 80prs in standard mode with single rca from front outs to the helix. I had my system near perfect in network mode but I am upgrading my headunit to a touch screen with hires playback(mostly because a botched Bluetooth update so no bluetooth) soon so I put in a dsp. [LIST=1][*]I am having trouble taming the tweeters. the input sensitivity is all the way down on the helix and I had to turn the gain on the amp to the lowest with about -7 to -10 decibles in the software to somewhat match the mids. [*]I am having trouble getting the imaging I would like. the music and vocals all sound like they are coming from the far right of the passenger dash and I cant seem to move it. I did all my measurements in inches with a tape measure to the headrest. Should I change these numbers? I have been trying to level match the left and right for the last 3 days but sound just ends up off.(im not sure if I was using rew correctly) [*]I am on here for some help in these areas because my ears are getting fatigued(especially the left one) and during my silence break maybe someone could give me some insight before I go back at it. Let me know if I need to add any more info. [/LIST] Here is my setup:Pics are of the software 2013 Honda Crv Pioneer 80prs (soon to be kenwood excelon ddx9905s or 9904s) Amps: all boston acoustics Highs - GT-20 Mids - GT-2200 Sub - GTA-800m Tweeters- Cdt drt-25 1500hz-20000hz in the sail panels of the door Mids - CDT hd-6m 10hz - 3000hz Factory door location sub - Dayton audio ref 12 d4 [ATTACH]4772._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]4773._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]4774._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
