I'm just curious what everybody has their 4 (or 2) channel amps for their mids and highs settings on (filters as well) and on their 1 channel mono amp settings (filters too). I'll start off with my current settings:
4-Channel Amp: Alpine PDX-4.100:
CH 1/2 - Gain-3:00, Filter-HP, Crossover-90Hz
CH 3/4 - Gain-2:00, Filter-HP, Crossover-60Hz
Input Channel - 3/4
Mono Amp: Alpine PDX-1.1000
Gain-Max
Input Gain-1.0V-8.0V
LP Filter-Believe it's on 75Hz but not sure
Subsonic Filter-15Hz
Now can anybody chime in with amplifier settings of their own? Also I'd like as much as criticism as u can dish out into what u think everything should be. My front speakers Best Buy hooked up and I dunno what they set my components crossover to. That's the only thing I feel that's holding me back from dailing in my system perfectly.
My equipment is:
Alpine CDA-9831 CD Deck
Boston Acoustics Pro60 Front Components (Kick Panels)
Polk Audio db690 6"x9"
Boston Acoustics S45 4"
Boston Acoustics SPG555SS GTuned Subwoofer
