CommonSyns Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 I have a question about my setup I have in my 98 TJ. So my equipment I have so far is as follows: Skar Audio TX525C (Front) Kenwood Excelon KFC-X173 (Rear Coax) JL Audio 360.4 Skar Audio 1500.1D (1 Ohm) Skar Audio SDR 10" x2 Pioneer DEH80-PRS (2013 Model) When I put the fader on my DEH-80PRS to front or to rear, the speakers either front or rear still play when each are in the front and rear fader maxed out. This is normal? Also, my front speakers in my TJ seem to be much quieter than the my rear speakers (Sound bar). The difference is that the front are components (Skar Audio TX525C 5.25") and the rears are old Kenwood excelons from my old build, the 4 channel amp is a JL 360/4, should I reset the gains with the DD-1? Or did I do something fundamentally wrong when setting up my system? The Skars in the front are 5.25's and the Kenwoods in the rear soundbar are 6.5's.

Dragonsyph Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Do you have all the RCA's hooked to the right channels on the amps? ♦ Sundown NSV4 18" + Sundown SALT-4 Baby ♦ MechMan Elite 370a + XS3100 - XP3000 ♦ SHCA 1/0 OFC(blue) + SMD Fuse Holders(blue) ♦ Pioneer AVH-2440NEX + SHCA Pro RCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSkippyJ Posted April 16, 2020 Report Share Posted April 16, 2020 Check the RCAs and then make sure the 2/4 channel switch on the amp is set to 4 channel F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetegjoe Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Your front and rears will play at different loudness given the same volume for a couple of reasons. 1. They are from different manufacturers so same specs don’t guarantee the same output. 2. If one pair is well used it will have more compliance and be louder than a brand new set. If your fading front to back and side to side basically works then checking your gains might help because your amp might picking up a faint signal because its gain is set to too low a voltage.

CommonSyns Posted April 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 My front and rear speakers are different brands and different sizes, also the front are components and the rear are co axles. Fronts being 5.25 and the rear being 6.5, the gain was set using an SMD DD-1 same with the crossovers.

Aliasbak3r Posted April 30, 2020 Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 I currently bought a 2011 chevy hhr Ls. I went to put my system in it. Upon hooking it up it was like my cord was arching on the terminal and blew my fuse. Why is this happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kain91 Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 The difference in loudness can also be due to frequency range differences. A coaxial can play a different range of frequency than a component Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
