What don't you understand? i have enough music intelligence to give advice on music i give...... you don't understand a sheit am talking about do you know what is the sensitivity of your amplifier? hmmmmm doubt very much you know anything about THAT! do you know how much VRMS your amplifier needs to deliver it's full power hmmmm answer me those questions first then talk or keep yuh mouth SHUT!!!!

seriously, where do some of you come out from?

d OP didnt even say what deck he has or if there are any processors in d system so how u cud know what is d deck or processor\s rca voltage out ... then why u make a wild guess suggestion that his amp gain needs to be at least 3\4 way up ? ...
musicgalore wrote:
First thing first how much Voltage RMS does a deck puts out from it's output left and right? The deck usually says, that info is usually found in the manual, I donno about that left & right you talking about there pal Secondly a processor takes what ever input signal meaning the same input voltage from whatever source and multiply it by 2 3 and so on say what? A line driver boosts the signal without altering it, a processor modifys it (in a nutshell) & most have some sort of line drive so they function as a line driver too and who said anything about rca voltage the rca voltage is what you matching the amps gain to, usually the rca output voltage of the last piece of equipment in the chain i never said anything about that and what the F%^& is that? i said VRMS brother, whats VRMS and to answer your question about why i said keep his volume on his amp 3/4 Volume on his amp? I have yet to see an amp with a volume knob, do you happen to have a pic of one? is because i'm trying to help the guy go into a troubleshooting mode it's a feasible try.... at-lest, the guy said he TRIED USING IT TO PLAY 2 CAIRE 38T DRIVERS BUT IT PLAYING IT REAL SOFT
but he PUT AN EIGHT EMINENCE ON IT AND IT PLAYING IT REAL GOOD
If the 8" eminence played properly, why interfere with the gains? Obviously its the Drivers, my first guess was the overall impedance in the circuit or wrong sized cap for the x-over frequency especially as a resistor was added in (& im pretty sure it did no come with) so the hpf shifted.
probably this is what i figured out, the two drivers with the resistor and capacitor is causing instability, a resistor breaks down voltage and a capacitor somewhat does the same really? also but changes the audio signal, simple tweeter crossovers are caps and a single cap gives you a 6db roll-off.... typically called bass-blockers... and bass blockers are designed for a low high pass out of curiosity, you ever reverse back a car? (80-100hz) nearly the same and that in return will change the efficiency of the driver lawd am sure if he takes of the caps and resistor it will sound louder more like distorted as unwanted frequencies will come through and damage the driver but he needs a crossover on it now to protect it, both ways can work with the caps and resistors and without with the use of an electronic crossover that is, that is why the eminence will sound louder because it's efficiency is better or greater and will not take to much RMS watts to produce some db levels that's my take on it WHAT'S YOURS? Just posted it above there
