    I absolutely love JL Audio and have had several JL Audio system throughout the years. I’ve ran everything all the way up to their leading W7 series. My last 2 builds were 100% JL Audio running 4 sets of 6.5 components on 450/4 and 3 JL W6 subs each with its own 1000/1 amp and clean sweep DSP in 2008. Unfortunately due to my health I haven’t been able to continue to enjoy my favorite audio equipment.

    06:02 Last year I installed Flax Evo PS 165F3E in both of my cars. These are some of the best mid-bass speakers that exist. And over the past two years I have tried them from more than a dozen different manufacturers and not cheap ones. Excellent sound and quality of the basket and contact group. This speaker can actually be used as a hand weapon, heavy and very strong!

    that focal 3-way front and 2-way rear is the same setup I'm planning to use for my gladiator along with an audio control 5 channel dsp amp and either a couple 12's or like 3 10's under the back seat. just takes time money and more time and money to get the ball rolling. will try and follow along with this as I don't tend to do active systems always feel like the crossover tuning is part of the love the designer put into them. but I'm sure I'll learn something new from this.

    • @JasonWW2000
      @JasonWW2000 9 днів тому

      I have no idea what kind of signals coming out of a 2013 Ford Focus. It probably has Factory EQ, but may have odd time alignment and all pass filters screwing up your signal. You might want to do some research into that. There might be an adapter that interfaces before the factory DSP.
      If not you might have to use a product like the Kicker KEYLOK to remove all the factory processing.
      Once you have a good signal then you need to consider a DSP to properly tune whatever speakers your installing.
      Five Star Car Stereo has done many videos on the DSR1. I may have even done a similar year Focus.

      @andrewkavanagh6028 if they make a harness for your car and the dsr1 deff go with that vs lc7i. It's not the best but will do everything you need. Also look into a different amp then the sia1750. So many other options i wouldn't do cheapish full bridge stuff. Not saying spend a ton but look at something else

    • @BaddDukk
      @BaddDukk 9 днів тому +4

      Personal choice. First, the choice on whether to have a stand alone DSP or one integrated into the amplifier. Stand alone gives more system flexibility (can change amps or the DSP independently) but takes more space (usually) and increases complexity with needing more RCA cables, more power runs, etc.
      Once you decide integrated or separate, you now need to decide brand. Helix, AC, JL, whatever - stick to major brands and you will get a quality product. They all offer pretty much the same flexibility so it comes down to maybe a specific feature or something like a preference for the JL commander knob over the Helix one or whatever.
