{{ ImportShark }} NEW! JL Audio Stealth Subwoofer

[RandallK]

I am doing the SPDIF integration currently and it operates at a 44.1 sample rate..

The only issues is that you loose volume control at the dash and steering wheel and navigation assistance

Have you guys noticed any ugly EQ'ing (whether fixed or volume level related) from the factory? Also noticing on the pinout that there's a SPDIF-wonder if you could route that in to a DSP?

The statement on the equalization is completely false.. Every car needs equalization because of reflections, resonances and the fact we don’t sit equidistant between between various speakers with the same on/off axises.. Left and Right frequency is never identical due to these mentioned issues.. This isn’t me ranting.. these are facts..

Now the better statement is we should strive for better speaker placement, better installation, better resonance & reflection control so that less equalization is used..

Also 1/3 should only be used when parametric isn’t available as on very few occasions does a node line up at an exact 1/3 frequency.. 1/24 should be used during measurement whenever possible as you are exposing more truth with greater resolution.

You did not understand my post correctly. Yes you are correct that cars need equalization but my point was it is minor equalization if the rest of the dsp is done correctly. So my post is far from incorrect you just did not get my point. Phasing is far more important to correct the different speaker distances as equalization is needed more for reflections causing a less than balanced frequency response.

Thanks for your picture. I manged to squeeze in morel class AB amplifier behind whose electronic boxes and it sounded amazing And yet completely hidden.

Glad it could help you out. That's what the community is for. Enabling, er... helping others out.
You've gone much farther than I ever will but what you are doing will surely help others out.
Nice job!

Just a warning that this subwoofer box does not work with the 2.0 Premium. Tried like hell to get it to fit but no luck and tore it up so that was a waste of money.

Did your car come with the auto-lift hatch feature? If so, the module needs to be relocated

It did not.
