Mids are almost non existent please help!!!


Recommended Posts

I have a yukon 2007 and i installed an Mtx 4 channel MXA4004 amplifier bridged to a set of Diamond Audio Components hex s600 6.5 inch mids and two tweeters. I am not running the 2 back door speakers since i dont want to buy some and do not plan on it i just want a front stage. So my front doors are not dynamated or sound deadened at all all stock. I have the crossovers that came with the components connected as well. I am bridging the amp to 2 channels so i am giving 200 watts rms x 2 at 4 ohms. Now my tweeters are loud and nice but i put my head down near the two doors and i swear there is sound but no where near the sound my tweeters are giving me. My gains are set right but i have no midbass at all just voice but not loud at all. For 200 watts to each side i was expecting a very loud midbass to go along with the loud tweeters. I have been playing it like that for a couple of months but only because my tweeters are very loud enough. Is it my lack of dynamat or any sound deading? Any info will help i installed some $60 phoenix gold components in an old school dodge ram running 60 watts total to them and the midbass was very loud and these $200 components specifically the midbass i cant get loud voice and midbass sound out of.

Any suggestions will help i really want my front stage to be louder with my 2 15 aq sdc that are going in the next couple of days. My mids do not have to have the bass but i want the voice coming out of them to be really loud like old school jbl and pioneers 6x9 used to be.

Yeah i dont know if i have to reword my question maybe thats why im not getting responses but yeah i have the filter allowing from 80hz to up and the gain a little less than 1/2 but im not getting loud mids like i want the voice from the songs to be loud from there like my mids from my ram truck with only 30 watts to each side are.

make sure ypour hps is switched to ON if there is such a switch on your amp. make sure u didnt accidentally mess up the wiring from the crossovers.

Yeah my hpf is set to on and i do get some voice from the mids although very low so im sure my crossover wires are connected right. Also if i buy dynamat or that peel and seal stuff from lowes do you think i will get a huge difference in loudness since my doors dont have any are they are not the most sealed doors you ever seen at all.

what freq is the hpf at? it should be like 80-100hz, the knob will have some numbers on it so just give it a guess as to where that is.whats the eq like? do the xovers have a+3db tweeter option or anything like that?

If i had to guess you have the power going into the crossover wrong. Sounds like you have the input into the tweeter's input as if you where going to bi amp.

Yes my frequency is at 90hz and yes my xovers have a tweeter option exactly with the db you stated but when i upped this it only made my tweeters even louder so i left it normal.

this might sound stupid, but did you check your connections and are you sure you aren't using the RAF instead of the woofer output on the crossover?
