[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8586408, member: 650438"] still junk because you have too many things in the signal line, runs the risk for noise along with unnatural alteration of the music and weird pre-out voltage interations when you actually start using amplifiers. Plus you still dont have time alignment. EQ is best done straight at the source and if your head unit doesnt have proper audio tuning options nor a proper quality DAC/ internals then you cant expect anything decent. Trust us when we say UPGRADE THE HEAD UNIT. Its the best thing you'll ever do for your setup. Why is time alignment important? Notice how your left speakers are closer to you then the right. With time alignment it plays the left speaker a few milliseconds slower than the right so that both sound waves reach your ears at the same time which gives you a perfect center stage where you can literally see music. If the singer goes to the left or right, you'll hear the sound shift properly. You'll hear every instrument as if its playing right in front of you in its proper spot like a proper live concert. Throwing away money on new 6x9s wont help with that, in fact it just draws the sound stage away from your dash and you are just surrounded by noise rather than actual music. With a properly done front speaker setup, you can be heard football fields away and have all the concert like performances possible with smooth rich and full sound. [/QUOTE]
