Crossover...

[polyxtroy]

Yup, I'm running on the HU's amp. Want to know which upgrade will give me the most significant improvement.

Kancil got rear's but stolen dy. :(

Get a 4 channel amp with built-in crossover.
Power your front comps with 2 channels and bridge the remainder 2 to power your sub.
Simple and good. :lol:

 

[polyxtroy]

What brand. Need a good budget 1. Get what 1st? Amp or sub??

 

[pisces]

Get the amp first.
What brand???
Depends on your budget and how deep you'll be involved!! :lol:

For sure they are expensive.
That's why I said if you don't really need them, save your money and invest elsewhere. ;)

heard fr my fren,he felt my tweeter got little bass sound,which blurs me ,izzit the sound not properly filtered to h-m-l
???.. :(

pls help me...

 

[pisces]

One of the symptons of buzzing sound in the tweeters is the amp input gain being set too high with the HU level playing at low volume, thus increasing the noise floor in the set up.
Tweeters playing bass???
Hmmmpp!!! This I've got to hear!! :lol:

 

[polyxtroy]

u mean my amp's gain was set to high?
should i try reducing it? anyway,how high should i set the gain?

 

[pisces]

Firstly, turn your amp input gain to minimum.
Then turn your HU level knob to 3/4 of the max.
For example, if your max level is 35, then turn it to 26 or 27.
Then play some CDs which your are familiar with.
Then slowly increase your amp input gain slowly until you reach a comfortable listening level.
All this has to be done with the "LOUDNESS OFF", and all built-in feature like high, mid and low to "0".

 

[ksgoh]

hi pisces,
turn to 3/4 of the max is too loud already, right?

 

[ksgoh]

today, saw a compenent set which comes with 2 crossover, 2 tweeters and 2 speakers.....the crossover have 2 different output....like 3db and 6db....is that a active crossover? too?
