To do that you need to have a HPF (high pass filter) on the amp you're using for the 6x9's.
you can achieve the same result by decreasing the bass setting from your HU.

I don't think that's the solution though, you probably have a problem with the way your install is wired.

 

What are gear are you running?

 

Issue 5: 6x9's are drowning out the sub and the base doesn't sound correct.

Resolution - Throw them in the bin.

 

Good answer!

 

They good tho.. ;0/

:haha: :rofl: :happy: :lol:

 

you can keep your 6x9's, the thing is that your amp sucks and your wiring is probably all wrong.

try different wiring combinations to your sub and speakers once you get a decent amp.

 

thats the general consensus on the forum i'm afraid.

Once i get it all and sounds aight, ima get a ncie boot install..

anyhow. thankyou the useful peeps.

 

don't dump the rear speakers smart guy, keep them then you can turn them off from the HU to see if it sounds better with or without them.

don't take everything your read on a forum for ultimate truth, get your own experience.

thanks much appreciated.

 

Adding on to this. When i install my components i ened help im rubbish and wiring etc and ice. Would i need a amp running the components? if so, where is the ebst location to place the amp? thanks.

 

you need an amp to power everything especially the front speakers and the sub. the amp usually goes behind the rear seats, have you never seen an install before?

 

Install yeah.. wiring etc.. nope. =/

 

I'd care for cutting the connectors off the rears :beer:

 

look for some tutorials online then. there are a lot of things you need to be aware of before starting installing something decent.

 

Depends on how big the amp is - I would care for either under the passenger seat or in the boot. Under front seat is going to be less of a PITA.

 

When i did my first install, I had the amp secured to the back of the rear seats. Then i had it secured to a standard sub box. I now have 2 amps secured to what I call my "amp wall," pic here: http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g155/tomp216si/DSC00203.jpg

I have found that the amp wall is the best way of keeping the amp(s) secure and out of the way.

Hope that helps, Tom

You make that yourself?

anyone have any links to tutorials? or even tutorials how to make simple to moderate boot installs? thanks

 

my amp is simply screwed to the rear of my seats, never saw the need to get a mount.
my second amp (smaller) is under the passer seat.

 

I saw the need to make a mount as it kept the amp out of the way, and if i put the seats down, the amp wasnt likely to get damaged

 

Yeah I made it myself, out of MDF. I also made a sub box out of mdf, on the other side. It saved me so much money, and for what wasnt really a very hard job, it made it so much more satisfying when i turned my system on for the first time, comparing to say if i had bought the wall and box ready made, not to mention the amount of money I saved

 

What sub have you got? What amp are you running? What gauge wiring are you using? 1000w amp RMS or Max rating?

 

Talkaudio.co.uk has a few decent tutorials and such - definatly worth a read if you're looking for guidance
