vegatron taikor...

i had search high and low at my place here... and there is none tht has the phase checker thing and also o-scopped... so any idea how to check them DIY?

by the way... i feel there is some gap between my mid bass and my highs on my stage...i mean the bass feels like they are down there at my legs and the vocals and highs are on top of the dashboard... wht should is try? overlapping the frequency range? 

thanks...

Sorry for the late reply... :P didn't check this forum for a while....  yes there is a "manual" way. Get a 1.5V battery, connect + - to your driver, if cone pops out means on phase, if cone pops in means off phase.

Can you switch off your low pass for your mids? means you only run high pass for the mids and high pass for the tweeters. Try that n see. Also try raising up your high pass for the mids, maybe try 70hz or 80hz.. 

By the way , what is your xover slope? is it 12db, 18db or 24db? Say if it is 12db slope, and you highpass your mids say at 60hz, it will still be playing down to I dunno 40-50hz. A steeper slope helps in your tuning.

remember don't test this with your tweeter, it will burn it
test for mid and sub.....ok
