Up next:
Reorganize the wiring under the amp rack and maybe work on some speaker grills for the dash pods.
I'll just continue watching over here .
Ok, got all my wire strapped up! It's not as organized as I'd like it too be but I still need to replace the sub signal wires, shorten one really long RCA, and gauge up the ground wire.
I also got tired of needing a wrench every time I wished to remove the false bottom, so I picked up some wing nuts.
Yes! Essque nuts FTW!
Tomorrow I plan on doing some critical listening and maybe even doing some RTA and tackling the eq for the first time.
My center keeps wanting to pull slightly to the right of the rear view and t/a did a ton for my imaging but I'd like to really focus everything. Right now I'm mostly just identifying a strong left, right, and center.
It might be pretty easy because MiniDSP has incorporated REW into most of their plug-ins. So I may go that route.

I'm also finding that my left stage doesn't go past the driver a-pillar an the right sometimes comes from the passenger window so if I can get the left to at least come close to that I'll be much happier. I understand these might be install limitations but I'm hoping there might be some eq tricks that will help. I may end up needing some advice on this part.
How do you like the miniDSP? I'm running the Moscini 6to8 but I'm always keeping my options open.
Not to belay the obvious, but take the balance one click to the left and call it a day for a while.
If that moves the meat over then use a shallower slope on the door speaker to compensate for the off-axis response.
You are not in a symmetrical environment, no need for symmetrical crossovers. Make sure your absolute phase/polarity remains somewhat constant.
And if you have to go for big over a kliller center.. go for big, you have to drive it, have fun. Make sure your absolute phase/polarity remains somewhat constant.

I'm really enjoying it! I need to get a line driver because the output voltage is kinda low. But other than that, in happy! With the DC isolator that Mini sells, it is silent. And the user interface is so easy to use! Tuning is actually fun! I have all my DSP and RTA controls right there next to me on my laptop and everything in the MiniDSP plug-in software is self explanatory. Not to mention it is a very powerful processor! It has legs (read slopes) that go all the way up! And with 18 channels of parametric eq, per left and right I have enough eq for 3 cars. Also while setting crossovers and doing t/a I can mute all or any channels I want with the click of a button. Same goes for phase, reverse phase for each channel is just a miuse click, there is no switching wires with this little bugger!
