what settings do you got and why?

[brafferty]

just curious if you guys personally have certain settings you "must have" set for your system? i just went with the standard 120 hz for my door speakers (although lately i kinda like how 150hz sounds) and 80 hz for my subs. the one setting however i must always have set is my tweeter at 6.3kz, because the next step up is 10k and it kinda just overwhelms at that

I usually set the low-pass on my subs around 100hz (which I know is a tad bit high high) and I just fill in by slowly adjusting the speaker high pass while listening to a variety of songs. After that, I turn my subwoofer amp off and just listen to the speakers to make sure they don't sound muddy or stressed by trying to re-create frequencies outside of their response range. After I get the speaker high pass filter dialed in, I hook the amplifier remote turn on back up.

Don't even bother with rear speakers. Front stage is where it's at.

Yes, sucks is censored

Yeah I haven't bothered with rear fill for years. 6.3 kHz for your tweeter? That seems super high. What are your mids crossed at?

I think you might have mixed in an EQ center frequency regarding the tweeter setting.

it was just on my kenwoods settings under "pro set up", as for where the mids crossover at, im not sure i feel dumb now hahaha

Don't feel dumb. Just play around with it and see what sounds best. Everyone likes different sounds anyways.
