[QUOTE="Brokenpath, post: 7537301, member: 637015"] Hey guys, I keep switching up and tuning my sound system but I can never seem to get rid of that tinny sound without a subwoofer. My setup is in my sig, however this also was a problem when i simply had a cheapo pioneer deck with some kicker coaxes. I can't seem to hear that midrange like I used too. My system sounds AMAZING when i'm listening to dubstep, electronic music and some hip hop. (Sometimes the vocals can get tinny) listening to dubstep is a real experience. It's when i want to listen to some good ol rock and roll and shut the subwoofer off that it just seems to be a loud tinny box of treble. In the cars I used to have with just a stock sound system this didn't seem to be a problem as much, with the volume turned all the way up and the bass turned down and the mids turned to the middle I would actually be able to FEEL the guitar. (Heavily distorted heavy metal) and it would be a crunchy, balanced goodness. Now, it's like I can hear the music very clearly but the treble can hurt my ears, but when i turn the treble down it still sounds like ***. I have to put the head units equalizer to (Powerful) and turn the volume up only a quarter of the way. is there something i'm missing here? Maybe it's just a small adjustment that I haven't learned how to do quite yet as i've never run dual amps before. [/QUOTE]
