[QUOTE="Serpenteer, post: 8433944, member: 667539"] Just had all new speakers installed in 2015 F150 Lariat. Had to keep factory head unit because it's integrated into everything. Had JL 10tw3 sub, JL C5 front components, JL TR rear professionally installed. Also audio summing device. The sub sounds great. The rest of the speakers are good, not as big a leap over factory as I'm used to. This is the 4th system I've had installed. But, the head unit has no equalizer, and virtually no settings, and no sub control. Did have a sub gain knob installed. I have a real lack of mid bass, which is odd. The stock sytem had way too much mid, even though it was the premium sound and came with a sub. If I turned bass up on stock system, it mainly pounded out of the doors on a lot of music. It felt like it was too much in the wrong place. Now, I get very little if any mid bass from there, while everything comes from the sub. Could this be crossover settings on the speakers. The doors were insulated with mat when they installed them. My biggest issue is this: if I fade from left to right, my front and back speakers are opposite. It's the front that's wrong. In other words. Fade to right, my left front speaker plays, while my right rear speaker plays. Fade to left, the front RIGHT speaker plays, while my left rear does. I don't want to call the installer and ask about this, if there's a reason behind it I don't know about. Theybalso didn't return my stock speakers, which I've NEVER had happen. I deove home thinking they were in the new equipments empty boxes, but they weren't. So I have to call anyway. Is there any reason the balance would be off like this. Thanks a ton, Brian [/QUOTE]
