Help with setup

[Darkness]

ok guys finally did up some simple ice...jbl gto 6" speakers and a 12" woofer in box and a amp but have a small issue....

 

the setup is nice and all but i find the high pitch very high (too high for comfortable hearing of some if not most songs)....other than treble setting which is at the lowest already is there anything i can tweak to reduce the high pitch? or if it is the case with the jbl tweeters can i use my oem tweeters with the new jbl speakers? will there be any issues? also i find the bass too over powering compared with the song itself....do i adjust the bass at the amp itself or use the hu?

 

thanks

Try increasing the bass to the max, treble to the min at the HU and lowering the gain at the amp. should solve it.

If can use Beyonce's song from autin powers (sorry can't rem the title) to configure for the bass/gain (you should be able to hear the double bass from the drum). Also if possible try and avoid bass boosts.

I have opposite situation as yours.

Mine is full of bass and my glass is shattering. But the pssh sound and mid bass is quite soft.

 

Maybe we can meet up and exchange pointers. I have a 1300w M5 monoblock Audiobank amplifier driving my Cadence 12 inch 350w rms subwoofer in a DIY box. I also added a Cadence CEQ770 pre amp to control the frequency and gain at the front althought the amp allow me to do so.

 

My total damage is $800 including installation.

 

Now trying to improve my front speaker sound quality. My existing is a component speaker with tweeter mounted on A pillar and woofer on the front door. My Atlanta CD-34 HU is driving my front speaker and the rear 6X9" speaker at 4X 18w rms.

For 2 amp + 1 woofer, not a bad deal Where u can your stuffs + installation

but your Atlanta is not a bad HU hence driving your front & rear is still OK

 

My weakest link is the HU, can touch due to technical issues

 

So I need to chg speakers + amp to get the necssary SQ + bass

Xgary>> try dropping the gain on your amp.
