Moving my soundstage farther foward

[xr650jkallen]

I have a 01 GMC Sierra ext cab. I'm running active 6.5s and tweeters in the stock door location. Right now my soundstage is right at my rear view mirror and sometimes just behind it. If I add a pair of tweeters in the a pillar facing each other, will that deepen my soundstage?

No. Depth is in the music.

Pink Floyd has some stuff but it's mostly demonstration music.

Sheffield labs, Chesky

I'll give them a try. It's seems hard to tune with more recent music. It's like they pan a lot more than older music

What kinda music are you listening to? Jenneifer Warnes "The Hunter" is an f'ing masterpiece if your into that type of jazz and is an amazing recording. I'm a metalhead for the most part and still listen to it once a week just to be impressed by it. Got a little low end as well...

If it's tuned to play one type it will play them all. At that point it's up to who is mastering it.

time aligned? What do you have for processing?

I listen to a lil bit of everything. I'm running a pioneer 80prs. I've got the time alignment close but prob could still use some tweaking, but to my ears it sounds **** near centered under my mirror. I had to reverse the phase on my drivers side to get the soundstage to lift.

use the fader to move forward to 6 or 7. Even with rears off, that actually made a noticeable difference for me in getting my stage right at the dash.

I ended u on fader +10 out of 15 to the front. Balance+2 to the right. Jetta Sportwagon.

In network mode I don't have a fader.

You don't need it. That's just where your phantom center is. There is nothing wrong with that.

If you really want it to move back(you might lose the drums seperation) mess with the EQ 400-800hz range.
