I think you will fit in fine around here slinky.

he's been here since 2006, he should know better

Go arrest some body ... or loan me your hand cuffs so me and the wife can experiment with them later ...

I'll mail you a pair but only if you promise to put them to good use.

But David on the other hand, He's going to have to learn his lesson the hard way.

You commented on my thread without even being remotely helpful and you are still here commenting pointless posts that have nothing to do with the imaging question at hand. The sun will freeze over before I apologize to you. Fuck you.

Yes, I've been here that long and seen plenty of douchebags like you come and go. Run along now.

No. He was being an ass. Saying I need knowledge is one of the stupidest fucking responses he could have had. Why would I be posting here on an audio forum asking an audio related question if I wasn't trying to expand upon my knowledge of car audio? Do you see why it was an asshole comment?

You post in a public forum then get mad when the public post a response that you don't like. That's just childish.

You've been here long enough to use the search key, but you don't. That's just dumb

You claim to see people like me come and go, and think I'm going to be one of them. Now that's just stupid

I didn't start being an ass till you did. You and your soft skin read to far into my post and got but hurt, you know what the staying ratio is for but hurt members vs. assholes?

I hope the sun never "freezes over", cause I'm gonna enjoy fucking with you from here until eternity

Rolex you sicken me.

This is a crazy solution but if that's what it takes, I am going to start planning this out and see how I like it.

Crazy ?? yea, but is is also normally called "going active"

Pairs of equipment only work good together when they are on the same plane. Not the case in your car.

Would you recommend I keep the 360.3?

before I say yes ... What head unit do you have ???

I only say crazy because I was hoping I would be able to just play with some settings on my 360 and get things tuned a bit better. I am likely changing out these components soon anyways so this kinda lines up.

I am using the factory deck.

Now, now, ladies let's all take a breather.

Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do that
I can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows

came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream.

oh lawd.

Processors cannot hide or bandaid phasing issues.

Then yes, you will need the processor.

I feel like using the crossovers included with the components sounds good already. Is there something I'm missing? Where's the appeal?

If you feel like the sound with passive crossovers is already good enough, how do these guys explain how much "better" an active setup sounds. How do they convey to you what you're missing if you can't hear it.

Their responses weren't overly abrasive and they answered your question in their own way. When visiting forums, recommend you pack your thick skin.
