here's what when u switch on the bandpass filter u put the 2 channels for strict mid between 2 frequencies- a high pass and a low pass which are both located as settings on the amp per 2 channels
highpass- this is actually the low point cutoff
lowpass- this is actually the high point cutoff
when bandpass is on, you can now control both what frequencies your speaker plays and accurately play your particular speaker hence not damaging it
so you must adjust both the highpass and low pass to suit the speakers, not what u this sounds good because peeps in trinidad go and buy speakers without considering it's particular use
eg. peeps run to buy eminence beta. why? because d "installer" or "padners" recommend it. so u go buy it and try to make it play what u want. no research was done, so u do not know anything about the speaker besides power handling and impendence. so now, u go and try to make it play frequencies which it was not designed to play since it is a sound reinforcement but u makin it play midbass hence damaging,burnt coils,broken cones,dropped spiders ect.then u say dat speaker not good and bad talk the brand.
another thing is that a lil bass must run through you lower mid line, or it will sound like crap because u have no midbass.all u gettin issa set of hights and high mid
so peeps when designing a system for your car plzz do a lil research b4 buying car audio products
Markzz and DJ Anand-
check your deck and place all the crosover settings(mid,bass,highs) flat or zero.
go to amp and place your gain to half and stitch on the highpass filter,leave the multiplier off
asuming u have a preamp,turn down all settings and volume
turn u deck volume to it's maximum then use the preamp volume turn it up untill u have distortion and ajust the deck volume to suit the preamp untill no distortion can be heard when the preamp's volume is about 75% up
now tune you mids using all the controls starting from the mid bass(not subs)untill you can hear the music playing as clean as possible
ajust gains to suit
