[QUOTE="Brokenpath, post: 7538354, member: 637015"] Thanks for the replies guys, @Fish : I always have my EQ flat but I will try again and reset my amp gains/EQ for speakers The only reason i set it to powerful was because it was the only way to get the mids back that i've tried so far. @papermaker : That's what i was thinking, but i thought the ID's were supposed to be good [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG]. Might be a lack of proper tuning. also, it's a passive component setup so i can't change the xover. @wenn: I'll try sealing off the door behind the speaker @audiobaun I'll try and get into that, a few days of google and experimenting should help me understand how to do all that better. @ wenn and underfighter : The reason I shut the subwoofer off or have it very low is because it doesn't sound natural with the kick drum or some parts of the bass guitar. The kick drum hits really hard and it just kind of shakes away the whole atmosphere away from what it's supposed to sound like and just makes me focus on the bass which is what i listen to dubstep or hip hop for. My sub is also for the most part a one note joke that just wants to be loud which, i really like but only for certain types of music. @ whitedragon thanks for the reply to the reply. if it was live, or played in a bar I wouldn't hear the kick drum hit that hard. and i've been trying to recreate that sound with very very futile attempts. I just don't understand how a stock sound system in an economy car can have better midrange than my system. It isn't anywhere near as clear but it still had the mids right. Might be tweeter placement, xover point... anything. I'll try all the things you guys mentioned and spend some quality time with my amp. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. [/QUOTE]
