hi
i was just wandering if my stock xr6 cam, would be worth being put into a stock EA ghia or a stock EF futura.
how much better would it be?
i am thinking of getting the wade 1636 regrind.
so if my xr6 cam would b good for any of my mates cars, i could give it to them and i just buy another cam from the wreckers for cheap and regrind that.

worth it?

also i hav a JVC head unit. and me being no good at the equalizer settings (the ones with the bars), i thought id ask if anyone could tell me a good setting for metal music.

cheers
Damon

eb xr cam is similar to a stock ef one

just keep fiddling with it until it sounds good to you, at the end of the day it's your stereo lol

For metal music, generally boost the highs and lows while cutting the mids to make a curved-V. What sort of EQ?

hmmm good pointer that, i find it very hard to set up my stereo for my music! especially when each band sounds so different!

tuned the head unit to the "curved-V" and sounds a whole lot better then wat i had or any set settings. wat was also a problem, was the bad speakers. which i thought werent stock :S
so new AMPED speakers going in on the weekend. aswell as painting door trims and centre console black

Sounds sweet. Yeah stock speakers suck really bad, i bought some Clarion 6" 4-ways yesterday for the rear and are a 1000% improvement.
Ive got a 5-band parametric equalizer on my mp3 player with seperate bass/treble boost, AND on my head unit theres seperate bass/treble boost and magna-bass so ive got plenty to fiddle with

TICKFORD_XR6 · 27-12-2006, 09:04 PM

haha thats a lot to fiddle with
should sound sic when u get it all right

EBTom · 27-12-2006, 09:11 PM

I hope. Getting 4" 3-ways for the front coz i cant be arsed with making brackets or drilling for bigger speakers and a 10" or 12" sub when the budget allows. What speakers are you putting in?

TICKFORD_XR6 · 27-12-2006, 09:46 PM

arnt EBs 6" at the front?
mine are
now i dont know much about audio so my mate said these were heaps good for the price and were much better than his. and listening to his i cant complain haha
looking at the box's - i've got pioneer 6" 3 ways for the back 220w max (couldnt b bothered cutting for 6x9s)
and pioneer 6" seperate 2 ways for the front 220w max with tweeters
and iv got a 12" 1000w max pioneer sub powered by a pioneer 800w max mono amp

Sounds like a good setup.
You must have an EB2. Mines got 4"s in the front doors and 6"s on the parcel shelf.

efgiar · 29-12-2006, 12:00 PM
