Setup:
Pioneer 6800BS head unit (50x4 RMS)
Pioneer AS 6.5's in front doors
Kenwood 9106D Amp (500w RMS@ 4 Ohms | 2000w Peak @ 4 ohms)
Memphis Audio SRX 12" shallow mount sub 4 ohms (250w RMS | 500w Peak) in a
Prefab box with 0.65 Cuft of airspace for shallow mount
How do I properly configure this when starting from scratch again (Resetting gain and everything)
Here is the normal steps I take when configuring
1). Find max volume without distortion on headunit (50 of 56)
2). Change speaker and sub volumes back 0 (set at 7 on speakers and 5 on sub) Max is 10
3). Turn off bass boost of 3 to 0 (Typically run this from 1 to 3) Max is 4
4). Set EQ to flat (Normally runs at powerful setting)
5). Set loudness to off (Normally runs on hi or mid)
6). Set amp gain to 0
7). Set lpf to 200hz
8). Set isf to 20hz (Sealed enclosure)
If I missed a step or I am doing something wrong please tell me. I want to configure this to have the best sound I can get.
Play music and turn up gain until bass stops getting louder.
Turn down LPF until only bass remains
Increase all speakers back to 7 and the sub back to 5
Set EQ to custom 1 or custom 2
-Bring up high ranges slowly (treble)
-Bring up mid ranges slowly (vocal)
-Bring up low ranges slowly (bass)
Is there anything I missed to set this up properly?
