Neo_frog Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Ok, here's the break down. In this situation, a DMM is damn near worthless so you'll need to get an o-scope. You can't just pick volumes and run one tone to set an eq. You would have to start with the HU on two different tones like 50hZ and 1000hZ. You would measure your max volume before clipping on both of those frequencies, and choose the lower one to be your base. From there, you would have to measure the eq output. You will need every band frequency to do it right and set a standard (before adjusting lower to level out your plot). Run your eq flat on the same frequencies you used for the hu and measure the 'max' volume before clipping. Some eq's are powered and some aren't so it'll really depend on your application. Have every band on a CD at your "max" volumes, then test each one on the corresponding adjustment. Once that's done, you can go to your amps and use the 50hZ and 1000hZ again to set them, then lower freqs on your EQ to get the sound you are looking for. Just a quick run down, but I don't think I left anything out. Need an install? Hit me up.[email protected]Got car audio questions?
