Please help!! |
Here goes my method
On the HU: set equalizer settings to flat, subwoofer and other related audio gains to zero. Tune your setup at around 90% of the HU's total power. Press pause and increase the volume to full; say if this is 50, tune your system at around 40-45.
Tune your fronts first. with the fader/ balance completely set to the fronts, and the amp gain set to minimum, slowly increase the gain on your amp till the music distorts (use the best CD you have in order to tune this better). set the amp gain just below distortion; where the music is really loud, but does not distort.
Now do the same for your rears. set the fader/balance to rear completely and tune as above. Set the rears a little lower so that they don't overpower your front soundstage but rather fill in.
The HPF for the subwoofer, if you have one, can be set from the HU. 80 will give you the lowest bass, 125, 150 a lot more.
When you tune your system to about 90% of it's output, this ensures that you get distortion free music at any volume.
Hope this helped. Enjoy your music.
