I'm wanting to remove mine to sound deaden but it feels like its just the cloth and I'm worried that when I remove it I'll f*ck it. Any tips on this?

I ran mine from the rear as it was a shorter run to were it's mounted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The delay times have been fine though.I compared it against a - http://www.phonic.com/en/paa3.html And also the computer software/mic we use to flatten PA systems.The parametric eq onboard is really annoying as the bass/mid/treble bands it uses don't meet. For example, I have a dip at 400hz that I want to bump up just a tad. The bass eq band stops to early to get to it and the mid doesn't go low enough either.When leaving it to do it's own referencing the tune the alpine gives is really bright, I haven't tested the "reference" mic shipped with the kit yet as my bet would be that this is where the problem is.I think I might be expecting too much from a mic shipped with a $300 car processor as most of the reference mic's we do venues with are worth a grand or so.Anyways here are the toys that I have installed and pretty happy with the current results.More install pix at - http://photobucket.com/fgtreatment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
