One step closer to SQ heaven

[Talhadon]

I have no words to explain Ahmed wonderful Setup....
Very creative and build setup it is ....Excellent !

As per me it is more inclined towards SQL due to bright sounding drivers and sealed sub in hatchback enclosure shaking seats
Gustaaa I am loving it .....Active going Gustaaa !

For example, three way speakers come with built in crossovers which send low frequencies roughly 50 hz to 500 hz into the midbass, the 500 to 5Khz to mids and 5k to 20k to tweeters.These crossovers are basically hardware based whilst going active means you distribute these frequencies by using just raw speakers without any hardware crossovers but directly controlling the crossover points from your head unit.

A slight correction or addition u can say, the passive cross overs do not control the hpf on mid bass driver and lpf on tweeters.
Secondly passive crossovers sit betweens the amp and driver so the amp gets to amplify full signal hence wasting the power on unwanted frequencies.
Well in active setup, the Dsp splits the audio spectrum with more steeper slopes and controls the x over points digitally. Therefore the amp channel receives the dedicated signal for that particular driver.

Thank you Talha,appreciate the fact that you took out time to audition it and gave your valuable suggestions as well and i'm glad that you liked the fact that I tried to squeeze the most out of what I had rather than going for a solution that's on the market I went with drivers which were out of home audio. =)

Good luck, do research whilst it is installed about the time alignment in a 3 way setup.

Thanks moonjee,have learned a lot from your endeavours.Yes it's tricky but fun at the same time as it teaches you a lot.Now you can put my name there in the Focal Fan club

Thanks bro,yes it definitely is and when you have a source like the p90 tailored fit acoustics is what you get.

Thanks roms,definitely working towards it and even though i'm not there yet with the time alignment i'll eventually get the hang of it.

Pehla to nahee hosakta as it's demo virginity has been already taken away by someone else but yes do expect an install pretty soon since it's running 2-way active right now with the mid bass lying as i didn't get time to install them.

Thank you jz your words mean a lot and you're always helpful and full of great advise.Appreciate it (y) and yes go for an SQL,that'd be great (y)

As most of you may already know i've been meaning to go the SQ way since quite some time now with the equipment I had and did some sound dampening on my car.Well I haven't been able to post my recent upgrades and well without further a due here they are...special thanks to Splfanatic for sourcing these as well as providing me support with his iinvaluable suggestions day in day out and would like to add that the deal went very smoothly and he is an honest and very nice person. =)I'd like to thank moonjee,tilsim,jz for their suggestions and the likes of madhouse12,drshaggy and stj174 for being an inspiration with their installs.The older setup with the sound dampening here:https://www.pakwheels.com/forums/car-entertainment-electronics-gps-navigation/196046-curious-case-cold-fusion-car-audioPioneer ts-swx 310 subwoofer TS-SWX310 - 12" Preloaded Shallow-Mount Component Subwoofer Enclosure | Pioneer Electronics USAInfinity Kappa 42.7i Infinity Kappa 42.7i 4" 2-way car speakers at Crutchfield.comJBL GTO 938 JBL GTO938 2012 - TopTenREVIEWSSony Xplod GTX 6040 XM-GTX6040 : Xplod?

The wire is 9 metres and it cost me 6k,though big 3 can be done in 4 metres.You can go to any car electrician and they have fuse boxes taken out of cars,use those with the addition of thimbles to hook them up to the wire for your very own cheap yet effective fuse box.Costed me under 500rs. =)
