TRON Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Okay, so basically I set my high pass filter on both my h/u and my amp, O-scopped my gain and still at high volume, I can hear low notes is my speakers. Its not loud but because I'm friggin' picky and have OCD when it comes to sound quality, there's enough lows to make the mids sound muddy to me. What can I do to cut out the lows to my speakers completely? Sound processors? external crossovers? a chainsaw? *ps. When the woofers are a' flexin' I don't care but when they aren't...

OrionStang Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Mine are at 45hz. Hertz for the fucking win. OP, maybe those JL's just sound 'muddy'. Time to upgrade? Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I could upgrade speakers...but I recently bought them to replace my old ones. Who makes insane high quality mids? What about sound processors?

OrionStang Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Rainbow and HAT make nice middle ground speakers. Then you get into Morel, Hertz, Focal, Audison, little pricey. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRON Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 What if I up my impedance? say to 8-ohms, or go crazy and find and amp that can do 16 ohms? do those exist?

Guest Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 why on earth would you want to go up in impedance? virtually every amp in the world can play while wired to 16 ohms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRON Posted April 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Doesn't raising your impedance give you better sound quality?

Guest Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 Doesn't raising your impedance give you better sound quality? slightly yeah, but i wouldn't worry about it unless you're doing SQ comps. you'd also need to buy a big fuckin amp to output X power at 8 ohms or whatever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
