just got a new eclipse HU, and i was playing with the crossover settings cause i dont want the speakers to produce bass, but ive tried every setting and none of them cut off the speaker bass.

any ideas??

thanks

pm him he installs audio for a living and knows everything im sure he can help you out

 

hear ye hear ye, i know all.... lol but seriously when i looked up the specs on the deck it only had a 100hz crossover not an adjustable one so there shouldnt be any settings to mess with. EIther way thou give me a couple more specifics, are you sure the filter settings are being saved? is the actual bass setting itself at 0 or higher? whats the eq settings you have?

 

i also do car audo installation... if u really want to get rid of the bass on certain speakers you can splice in bass blockers/capacitors on the speakers postive wire and it will take car of it 100%

 

true but the caps also color the sound a lil bit IMO. They work but if you have a digital high pass it sounds alot better IMO

 

its hard to explain

you can select either HPF or LPF and then on the same menu you can select some kind of 12db slope for either the HPF or LPF....heres a link to the manual

http://www.eclipse-web.com/us/downlo...ents/3001.html

you click on the "sound adjustment mode" then go to the bottom and select "crossover adjustment (x-over) to read about it

 

try selecting only the HPF and see what happens. give me a sec with the manual (i work at a eclipse dealer i should know this **** right?.... nope)

just read it... sounds easy enough. Just make sure to

press select on the x-over
enter to activate
enter to switch from LPF & HPF (stop at HPF)
and select one more time to turn it to the on position

 

believe me it sounds much easier than it is, the selection screen is just like 1 big line and you cant select a hpf or lpf unless the slope thing is activated.

ill keep trying though, should the filter cut out ALLL bass from the speakers?

 

^^^almost all the bass i believe

 

mmm sorta. no crossover cuts out everything. they are all slopes and the way it works is each octave reduces by the value of the crossover. so in your case, at an octave below 100hz its -12db

you should hear a noticeable difference thou

 

**** this, ive tried every possible way and made sure i saved it every time, it does absolutely nothing

 

i dont know... possibly take it to a local audio shop? call/ e-mail eclipse
