    McIntosh Morel install phase 1

    Hi zyvin, the Focal line converter works flawlessly. The flat EQ mod does not alter the sub-out crossover slope. Even if it did, (and the sub signal became full-range), my McIntosh sub-amp has it's own crossover settings so i could have just applied those. (But there was no need). The crossover...

    Hello, In my truck, installing the subwoofer amp (and thereby taking the load off the Sony amp) was the biggest difference-maker. Then the door speakers, and I did the Forscan EQ-disable as the last step. Please note that low frequency (subwoofer) wavelength needs DISTANCE to become audible...

    Sure, however, the Lc2i is not a power amp, just a hi/lo level converter with some basic level and roloff dials. You'll still need an amp to power the subwoofer. So you're making 2 extra cold-connections this way. It will work, if you are set on the Lc2i. However, the Sony amp already crosses...

    I highly doubt there is Anything (reliable) on the market that would replace the Sony amp completely while retaining all its functions. Firstly it would have to have the same input/output harness as the factory amp, which it doesn't. The factory SONY amp does a LOT more than just amplify signal...

    Hi there. The Forscan EQ disable (727-01-02 = 00xx xx..) will NOT disable output (to door speakers) from your SONY amp. It will just lift the factory applied EQ curve, resulting in a flat output frequency curve from the Sony amp (which is what you want). So you're good to go doing that. (It's...

    McIntosh Morel install phase 1

    The improvement just by replacing the speakers and subwoofer is night and day. I chose the Morels not only because they are a direct fit 5x7 and sound exactly the way I need car speakers to sound, but also because their impedances match the impedances of the factory speakers exactly. This allows...

    McIntosh Morel install phase 1

    My way of upgrading the factory SONY system Started my complete audio makeover this week. First I wanted to address the subwoofer. I've skipped filling the SONY sub-box will poly-fill (as the properties of that filler wouldn't have any effect on frequencies under 300hz). So I've tried a JL...
