    More power for mids?

    As always it helps to listen altogether and then just to ONE driver at a time. If you haven't done that for your tuning yet...you need to.

    Dracula's Droptop

    Default kernel SUCKS for car use compared to Timur's. Really should do it. SO MUCH better.

    You need to redo that test, placebo bit you in the ass. While you do that, really spend some time critically listening. At this point you have some setup woes and until those are resolved it is going to be extremely hard to recommend something that will help.

    Where do you have it set normally? What about it didn't you like? Random offerings of speakers are NOT going to help. We really need to know exactly where these go South for you and why so we can lead you in the right direction. If the 100Hz you don't like as much but gives you the output you need it'll change recommendations significantly.

    Same thing occur with the HP turned up?

    Even the last 45 was exciting, just would have been more so if Howard managed to pop that out of the way.

    ^^ this We didn't play well enough and were given the Ghana game. Opposite could be said about the Portugal game. As for a trade though, I'll take it. Beating Germany to get in would be stellar although not needed.

    The db's won't work. Any pictures of boats showing similar mounting? Engine lid ones I don't need, know exactly where they are Pics of someone elses boat with your layout is fine.

    Have you played with compensating with your sub? Including turning up your HP on the mids to see if it extends where they start falling apart? Also curious what part of the frequency range is lacking first causing you to keep indexing the volume.

    That last goal really sucked btw

    I miss Paris. Almost booked a trip yesterday. I'll trade you.

    Can't see how the ID stuff was ever referenced as having output. Personally I don't really like the sound either, but that of course is subjective.

    The real question is do you actually want to be happy with the output or do you keep want to bandage it as it fails. Every crossover is specifically designed for a particular tweeter. Specifications on tweeters are such that none can be swapped NICELY, ie it can "work" but all semblance of quality and balance may go right out the window. That being said, I am rather familiar with your needs and concerns. I have a Malibu 23 LSV which we tie up at the island. Exactly the reason I asked as no car tweeter is made to project and that is the difficulty. You need a long throw driver so that when you aren't in the boat you can hear it behind. Mounting locations make a HUGE difference too. This of course is where the beauty of the wakeboard tower lies, but there are ways to simulate that in boat as well. I am curious as to your current mounting locations and listening habits/compromises. ie, is out of the boat output more important than in boat quality? What works for far doesn't work for close. Could be a hybrid approach though depending on how bad you want to solve the problem.

    Can't just change the tweeter, need complete sets. Is the loud for party cove activity or high speed tunes?

    Anymore than a 285 looks dumb on that truck for street use

    Bruno Mars? Bruno is one of those rare top 40 stars who has actual, credible talent. Whether or not the music that he makes is good...well...debatable. I only remember he actually had a band. Can't tell you anything else, sure I won't care after the show either but wth the wife wants to go I recall a conversation with you about Bruno not too long ago and you had nothing good to say. I am sure the show won't change that

    Last live show I went to was a few months back. Saw Miles Davis's old bass player playing with Kevin Eubanks. Awesome. This won't hold a candle within a mile of that show, but if the woman is happy I am too.
