[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8718087, member: 675210"] That RANE link is interesting reading. It explains a few things and gives me a better understanding of what I am hearing from the left and right sides of the car. I measured today and I was dead on. The tweeter is exactly 12 inches above the midrange in the lower door. The tweeter is flush mounted to the door panel however the VC of the Silverflute is easily 4 inches behind the panel. If I am comprehending what I have read, I need to make the delay of the midrange and the tweeter to my ears about as dead on as I can... another words, measure as precisely as I can, the distances of those door speakers and re-enter them into the DSP and switch to a Linkwitz-Riley crossover at 24db. Because the distances to the speakers in the right door have less of a deviation in distance to my ears, I am hearing less separation of the speakers... meaning they sound more like one speaker and image is higher because the tweeter dominates. This should get better once I re-measure and set the delays and change the crossover. I am guessing I will have to measure with the MIC again and re-EQ as there will be some change in the dips and peaks. I have to say, currently, it is LOUD in the car, the right side is out there and vocals land just to the slight right of the center of the steering wheel. Ref. Dwight Yoakam, Radiohead, Inya, and a few others. I haven't finished reading the whole link but I will. I am tired at the moment. I will post what the re-measurment and crossover change if anything tomorrow before I go to work. Thanks SkizeR [/QUOTE]
