[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 2605015, member: 555320"] That could be part of your problem. Most car audio speakers don't like to be in small sealed enclosures. Absolute, or relative? Because wiring the positive on the amp to the positive on the speaker, doesn't mean that the speakers will be acoustically in phase [I]with each other[/I]. Most component set passive xovers do not highpass the midwoofer at all. While JL never specifically mentions it anywhere, given the way it is "listed", I would guess they simply mean the midwoofer is lowpassed @ 6db/oct and the tweeter is highpassed at 12db/oct. So yes, I would recommend setting the highpass filter on either your headunit or amplifier. Kill the sub and listen to just the speakers. [/QUOTE]
