trumpet1 Posted January 27, 2015 Report Share Posted January 27, 2015 Edit (reason for suggestion): He's running rear drivers in stock location ... Can't tune/time align that with a processor. Sure you can. A L-R hack with 8-12 ms of delay will turn the rear speakers into proper fill that will add spaciousness to the sound, provided the music isn't mixed in mono.

I generally get all my music from iTunes so I don't imagine they are tuning tracks in mono... but you never know these days lol! Well my sail panels are headed back from my buddies shop out in WA. Something I couldn't do already lol but he has been a big help just as much as the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krakin Posted January 29, 2015 Report Share Posted January 29, 2015 I always tune the speakers that are of same exactly the same. When you equalize speakers differently in an array (of the same speakers) the image is destroyed, a loss of clarity and focus and creates listener fatigue. Krakin's Home Dipole Project http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/186153-krakins-dipole-project-new-reciever-in-rockford-science/#entry2772370 Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist? I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . . What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself but what has drawn your attention in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears, thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

When you equalize speakers differently in an array (of the same speakers) the image is destroyed, a loss of clarity and focus and creates listener fatigue. It depends on the install, if equal positioning isn't possible, equalizing the channels separate can/will work out better. But I agree that it's only a tiny percentage of people that actually need it. I always tune the speakers that are of same exactly the same.

bigsausagepizza Posted February 11, 2015 Report Share Posted February 11, 2015 Check out the minidsp, it is a much cheaper option for a dsp. Depending on which one you choose they start ~$100 and provide many of the features of the more expensive car specific processors. 2008 Subaru WRX STI K&N Typhoon Intake Invidia Polished Stainless 3" turbo back with cat Cobb Accessport Dyno tune from Kaizen Tuning 320awhp 330ft-lb awtq MTX 421D Sub amp American Bass SQ900 Highs/Mids amp Sundown Audio SD-2 10 D4 JL Audio XR653-CS 3-way Components 3sixty.2 Second Skin Damplifier Pro Custom fiberglass wheel well enclosure Transmission Line quasi-floor enclosure http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/forum/13-member-rides-builds-show-off-your-whip-show-off-your-system/ Bill Fitzmaurice TLAH line-array hifi towers 9 Goldwood 4" mids (each) 12 Goldwood 1/2" tweeters (each) NAD 1020 Preamp MiniDSP 2x4 Balanced processor Thorens TD166mkII Turntable Hafler DH-200 Amplifier http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/192638-line-array-hifi-tower-build/ https://www.facebook.com/HolyMountainGlass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
