[QUOTE="ThxOne, post: 8725865, member: 675210"] Ummm $1,400+ is no small investment. Though exactly the right idea. I am learning a little bit each time I mess with this Active Crap. I spent 25 minutes on the drive to work listening to different music that I am used to listening to at home and when I got to work I hooked up my laptop, set the midbass back to 300 or 350hz, I forget which and did the same for the widebands. Then I did a bunch of eq'ing by ear. I also realized that even though I time aligned the widebands, the left side was way louder than the right. I lowered them overall -6db as a pair yesterday, today I raised the right speaker up to -3db and violawalasapaka!!! Now they sound nearly the same volume at the drivers seat. The 7 drums track on the older IASCA disc sounded MOSTLY even but the kicker is that the snare drum sounded the same height across the dash, no more dipping to the lower right speaker. You have NO idea how excited that makes me... silly I know, but progress!!! [/QUOTE]
