How do you directly connect to the amp's DAC converter? So an iphone would have a choice of connecting to the HU... or the amp's?

On the JL, did you solder the wires? Are the HK tweeters still hooked up in the back?

Has anyone done a comparison between the Eton speakers and Focals? Are Focals worth the extra money over the Etons (mainly the door speakers & tweeters and possibly the center if anyone has feedback)?

Was contemplating possibly doing the same.. I appreciate the feedback. Out of curiosity, which model of Focal speakers did you replace your etons with?

Phil, it looks like you use an electrolytic cap on your xover network. Can you do a version with a poly cap instead? Nothing crazy, like maybe a clarity or bennic.

I went with the full Dr Strangelove setup. Eton B100W, JL C2-400x, BSW's, Match Up 7BMW, center-delete, ASD-delete, dynamat in the doors. I'm still trying to get the tuning right. It's good, but something is still off.
Is anyone else running this combo that can share their tune? |

A common and high performing mic is the UMIK-1 from MiniDSP. I think they've even available on Amazon, as well as of course directly from MiniDSP. Make sure you use the 90-degree calibration file, not the 0-degree. |

Fewwww, finally made it through all 42 pages of this post...A lot of good info... However, I decided to go with morel hybrid 402 up front and morel maximo ultra's in back. Further, I'm heavily leaning to the JL VX amp to drive it all.
My question, to anyone who has installed the Morel's or similar speaker, is the 50mm depth an issue? Apparently Morel now makes the 402 in a shallow version and I'm uncertain if I want to go with the standard or shallow. Lastly, has anyone considered bypassing the standard subs under the seats and installing a custom sub box on the passenger side of the trunk behind the wheel well? |
