[QUOTE="danny_isr, post: 556973, member: 556475"] Got my new Premier 860 last week, very impressive. The sound is very good , and it improved the sound in the car much more then I imagine it will be. With the same amps/speakers. Had before Old Pioneer 4800 and a CD changer. My door speakers are hooked to the internal HU amp . and my front tweeters to external 2 ch amp. But now I don’t have any control on the volume of the door speakers. and I can barely hear them. Rear speakers and sub are amplified with external amps as well. So the doors speakers are the only one that are not amplified. The front amp for those tweeters is a very old one , and probably not compatible with the 6.5V. so I had to turn the gain on it to minimum to make it work without distortion. Maybe that’s part of the problem ….? Should have help the door speaker situation I would think … It’s a Sherwood 2x25. Do you guys think if I will use the HU directly with those tweeters they will sound any better ? Tweeters are Pioneer TS-S20 Any suggestions ? Another thing , is there any option to disable the negative colors on the screen savers ? I wasn’t too impress with the auto EQ , had to tweak it more after. I don’t get it , you have auto EQ and Manual EQ and both effect ? didn’t make sense to me. Seems they “fighting “each other : the auto EQ set my highs almost to zero , I had to put it on max on the manual EQ. But bottom line , VERY impressed from this unit. I found myself sitting in the car longer ……… [/QUOTE]
