I have a Kenwood dpx501bt headunit with new JBLgx600 component speakers and the matching coaxial set for my rear speakers. The speakers are 6.5inch speakers, well technically 6 and 3/4s but that's not that important. They have a power range of 2-70watts rms, impedance of 2.3 ohms, sensitivity of 92dbs. This is probably too much info but it won't hurt. I don't have subs or amps besides the factory amps and they put out about the same watts rms as the headunit which is 22watts. Ok so my question is, what settings should I put on my HU with this kind of system setup to get the full extent of it. The best quality and performance. Awesome mids and highs and decent bass, definitely noticeable. So here is the HU settings options....
Bass Level: -8~8
Mid Level and Treble levels are the same
EQ:
Bass
CTR FRQ | 60hz~200hz
Q Factor | 1.00~2.00
Extend | off/on
Mids
CTR FRQ | 0.5khz~2.5khz
Q Factor | 0.75~1.25
Treble
CTR FRQ | 10.0khz~17.5khz
Bass Boost: off, level 1, level 2, level 3
Loudness: off, level 1, level 2
I assumed I wouldn't need to worry about the settings with "subwoofer" in the name so I didn't include them.
But I'll include LPF subwoofer just in case
LPF Subwoofer: FRQ: Through, 85hz~160hz
HPF: FRQ: Through, 100~150hz
Volume Offset: 0~-8
Sound RECNSTR: on or off
That's pretty much it for the audio controls. Let me know your thoughts and what settings I should put each of these categories at!
