  • Today I test the results of the Acura stereo system and make the final adjustments. I will be using three RTA units with microphones set in various location to see how the highs respond from different positions in the car. I also end up comparing RTA's and trying out a SPL meter from SPL Labs to see how the Ecstasy subwoofers perform in our 4th order bandpass box.

    @tammymillar3906 4 роки тому

    Since our ears are more sensitive to the 800 to 1500hz range its common to dial in that dip after using an RTA to flatten everything while final tuning by ear to compensate for this fact. Most will find after spending hours fine tuning for a flat response that it simply does not sound the best to the ear.
    So, I'm sure it sounds great with that dip

    Subsonic Filter why? Every Filter adds Group delay which is perceived as Echo when >30 ms. This might be the case with that bandpass even without Filter. Because of that I wouldnt set it. Or at least try without

    @unknownuser200985 4 роки тому

    cut the ports down..... pulling the ports just up threw the deck is going to make tuned even lower because the box volume will increase with the ports external vrs internally... effectually lowering the tuning. you can also try larger diameter ports. the higher port volume will raise the tuning
    not sure why i typed all this you've already thought of it

    Why would Audiocontrol not put the same calibration scales from the original RTA into the new RTA? So you have to until they fix a scale control in put the mic on the console? Am I missing something thats ridiculous.
