From your other thread, understand you are using a Sony Xplod. But which model?

Get your installer to tune the sound for u, maybe hv to reposition the tweeters. Worse case your amp & speakers both on the bright side, so hv to replace either one

[Slonez]

The people who sold you the system should make sure that you are satisfied with the setup. Go back to them and "cry father cry mother". If they cannot solve, demand refund but I don't think you'll get it.

That's why you should only buy from good installer!

Worst case get a preamp/eq to cut down on the highs.

Hi Gadgeter,

 

I'm using the CDX-F7700 one, but seriousl;ym are the tweeters suppose to be TAT hard on the ears? its rreally damm clear and loud, the too damm high liao... the tweeters are placed in the dash board, standard place for tweeters. well, i really no more $$$ to spend on another set lor.. is there aniting on the amp or aniwhere else i can adjust? some of these car installers really cut throat man!

 

Thanks guys!

[Gadgeter]

with understanding the you are running your components/tweeters from a amp. Try adjusting the setting there..

 

If not, popby Bishan on Friday night. Am sure there will be people here who can help,.

[Hoppe]

can tweeters be placed away from the dashboard?

Is there a rationale as to why they have to be placed there?

ICE guru correct me if im wrong.

Tune the SLA down. The High only limited mhz.

 

Check your tweeter how many watts too.

bring down all the setting from yr HEAD UNIT, adjust yr amp setting first ,gain,hfp,lpf to suit the music u listening them tune yr head unit for best result.

[Gadgeter]

see you then..

[Xiaogary]

where is the bishan meetup? Is it a ICE meetup?

 

Can I come to see see look look?

 

I got another solution for the bright tweeters. Use a cloth to cover it. Or turn it away facing the windscreen.
