How loud does it need to be, in terms of SQ

Not gong to cancel midbass due to "aiming" unless you install the driver backwards on the baffle and not invert the polarity.

Interesting. I see now why these fancy processors are becoming more of a priority. My level of tuning capability in the past was strictly via the head units, and did not have individual attenuation ability available in them.

I'm digging it. Carry on, wise gentlemen!

Once you go there, you can never go back. I used to consider the 99RS excessive. Now if I had to go without a DSP, the 99RS is the only head unit I could consider if it's going to run alone.

Seperate gains , on tweeters , is the cat's meow !

With all the drivers in my 4-way having what I consider average sensitivity for standard speakers I have more than enough power to run myself out of the truck. That's with a rated 120x6 and 340x1 with a matching pair of Mosconi One 120.4's. I'm running Audible Physics ar20 3/4" tweets, Ram 2.5"? midrange and 6.5" midbass, and a plain sealed Arc 10. Did a demo for a buddy of mine the other day and holy balls it got loud in there and my gains could stand to go up quite a bit more. I like having more power than I'll ever need so my amps don't have near the opportunity to run out of steam on transient peaks. All my music is lossless. In my opinion for the masses 100 watts per front driver is plenty for the most part and 300-400 is plenty or a single "nothing special" sub.
