AI James Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 What kind of alignment do you have those mayhems in, we found the mayhems to be pretty bad sounding for a sq application when we had them in a few? Just overall a boomy sub, of all the applications ive had in my jetta, as far as subwoofer linearity goes i think the mayhem and the chaos were some of the worse sounding i had in there. Hell other people loved them though so maybe its just me being a picky ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Lightning Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 The best CD that I can suggest would be the Chesky Records Demonstration Disc ... You can buy one at just about any MECA competition ... they use this disc religiously !!! Pay very special attention to the narrator on how he sounds and where he is on the stage ... This alone will help you on your Equalizer adjustments ... Kenwood / HELIX / Linear Power (For The Love Of Music) / Brutal Sounds / OverKill Electric Co Questions About Sound Quality ?? Try Here ...

OrionStang Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 The Mayhem is definitely not an SQ sub LOL. Not worried about TA on them, just need the kicks toned down from them. That being said, thank you guys for sharing your knowledge.. Ill use it for sure to get my mids and highs tuned in.

BoomZoom808 Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Have you tried to tweak the gain at all? The sensitivity can influence how the eq behaves. Seriously thinking about switching back to STD mode. Can't get my subs right.

OrionStang Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Just went and parked and played full tilt for the last 25 minutes, I think I got it. At least its close. Subs are stinky LOL, but I got the sound much better. Its pretty fucking loud. SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decaf Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 You guys need some time on DIYMARemember, whether using BW or LR crossovers the phase changes also... so the slope chosen is an intricate part of the equation I haven't seen mentioned yet.Auto EQ is meh, Auto T/A was way off also compared to how I run it by ear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
