HX-D2....

[kevyeoh]

ok ok...but HX-D2 tarak EQ....sigh...memang don't have one for all....you need all for one... 

[mnkh27]

why waste money on so many RCAs and added speaker cables? go for quality not quantity.

D2 don't have PEQ?

for P80's TA:

the less distance key in into the HU is mean the most been delay is it? example: 65cm is delay more than 100cm.

im also used p80rs2. the p80 set on standard mode not network.
can any sifu comment on my current setup. currently used 3-way front + WOOFER
tweeter and midrange - up1c & dls ur2.5 on passive hpass about 350hz. using arc kar600.4 set at pass. hu set hpf200 12 db slope.
midbass- morel hcw6.5 set low pass 250 hz at arc kar600.4 and hu set hpf 63 slope 12 db.
woofer - set mtx pass. the hu lowpass 63 at 12 db.
midbass at original location. tweeter and midrange at the a-pillar. the woofer at back.

U Mean set 4Way with UR p80rs???

[HAFIZULHADI]

yup 4 way semi passive

yup 4 way semi passive

Same lor wit Me..but i split Between Midrange & MidBass..? but dunno how to discribe..
Let me ask ma Installer...

this component i using now...can i cross the hpf of the mid till 31.5Hz? will this action damage the mid voice coil?

cos i heard ppl said when cross too low the mid need more power to work...and if the amp cant supply enuf power, the voice coil will overheat...

HU: p80rs1
comp: eton RS 161
comp amp: 4ch chicken brand (45~50w x 4)
sub: RF p2 dvc
sub amp: RF mono p325.1
sub box: seal 1.2cu feet

no point crossing so low.. you are asking the mid to play sub-bass + midbass + midrange(the most critical freq).
how can a single driver possible to play all these freq and at the same time u r asking to be smooth sounding overall...

its like having a scans revelator tweeter to play 1KHz or 500Hz even though the Fs is 500Hz. the question is does it sound nice for a tweeter to cross at 1KHz even though its possible to do so?
obviously NOT!!...

So the right questions to ask should be:
1. whats the best xover freq for this particular driver to sound at its best?

note: we wann a coherent sounding and all drivers should sing in harmony together..

i using 2 way component+sub

u mute evrything except ur mids.then try to set it lower slowly.use ur ears to listen whether it can produce the lower freq.if not, then no point setting it too low and ur mids cant produce the sound.in the end, u might have a gap where theres no sound produced on tat freq.normally cross at about 50hz.so u can bring the sub on the front.this is just a generalization.u need to find it urself to suit ur own taste.

Is that ur mid able to go that low?
No point you drive that low if it can't go that low hz. If it can go that 31.5hz(I think did he sub job0 then your sub like useless.
