That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

robsimon799 Posted April 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 i think and know i need it. i can't find cross overs to match it and do what i want. to control each and every channel and amp and speaker with one unit would be a good thing. each speaker would have a 2 independent EQ's and cross over points lp/bp/hp to equal out the fs band of the speakers and amps. then 2 main EQ's for all channels for playback from what they did in the studio with mixing the track then studio playback when they had the EQ in the studio set at some fucking redickuless settings or they didn't think of what it sounded like with no EQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CstrokerV Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Wasnt trying to be mean either. You could use one amp for each speaker that has band pass capability for some of what you want and the Dolby there was a dvd In dash at one point with the dolby decoding and all the preouts needed back in the day want to say Sony but not sure my build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/142505-small-build-log-4-dc-lvl3-10s-tl-update-link-to-rebuild/ http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/154258-rebuild-6-lvl3-12s-update-small-video-nothing-spectacular/ new build http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/188181-03-trailblazer-slow-build-8-dc-lvl3-12-m1-motor-m2-parts/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a example of a high end speaker system that uses a 6-way setup and sounds really good. Even the old JBL pro series monitors only used a 4-way and they are a pain in the ass to get to sound decent and don't handle reflections or timing issues or a myriad of other things well. They are complicated and extremely hard to tune, you fix one thing and screw up ten others. And oh by the way that's in a acoustically dampened room where you can move them around a lot more and not a car. Also most audio on a cd is mixed stereo not DTS. Unless you are playing movies or very specific SACDs DTS is useless for 99% of the population. If you want to tinker buy some drivers from partsexpress or madisound and plug them into a MiniDSP setup. They have a car audio DSP that's affordable. Theres enough in those plugins to keep you occupied for awhile. You're going the wrong way man, instead of 50 billion speakers you should be looking for the smallest amount of drivers and amps that will give you the best sound in your application which is like 10% the drivers job and 90% EVERYTHING else in the car.

Zapco comes to mind. Also audiocontrol has a bunch of stuff as well that would work. You can grab an EQ to add on to the setup as well, parametric/graphic whatever floats your boat. Also MiniDSP have a lot of options. I don't understand the 2 independent eq comment either. Also fs doesn't matter as soon as you put it in an enclosure, its a rule of thumb to usually tune you enclosure above the fs but its more about safety i.e. cone control than anything. You CAN tune lower than the fs. A lot of what you are talking about sounds like notch filters and l-pads etc. which can be accomplish by FIIR filters. IIR filters would act more like a eq shelf type filter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
