[QUOTE="DejaWiz, post: 2858444, member: 569941"] Bingo. I've known a few people that will stroll into a best buy or circuit city and easily blow $2000+ for a system they think is the bee's knees, but really sounds like absolute crap to a set of experienced ears because they know next to nothing about equipment, installation, and tuning.... even the simple things like what an octave is or what a crossover slope is and how it affects certain aspects of the output signal. Take the Pioneer DEH-P980BT HU for example.... it has a 16 band EQ built in with the following frequency attenuation points: 20, 31.5, 50, 80, 125, 200, 315, 500, 800, 1.25k, 2k, 3.15k, 5k, 8k, 12.5k, and 20k with the ability to set each in a range of + or - 12dB. That's pretty impressive for a HU in my book. Glad you are learning... and never stop doing so! [/QUOTE]
