How do you like the Jehnert door panels? I know the guy importing them into the US< but I've never heard them...

el duderino?
I checked out the Eq and it seems pretty impressive, what i wanted to know was for the set UP that I am going with is the EQ going to be used alone or is it to be used in conjuction with the LOC.
Also can you tell me what would be a pluses and minuses in going with a aftermarket 3 way system say a (DLS ur36s). instead of just the 2 way And if I were to go with the 3 way set would i need say an additional amplifier say a 2 channel amp dedIcated for the rear like a (phoenix gold TI400.2) which would give me a total of 7 channels ( 4 front 2 rears 1 sub). or is that a flawed way of looking at it. Thanks |

But your OEM amp has F tweets, F mids, F midbass, R mids, R midbass, and sub channels. Your Head Unit has L and R output but no Front or Rear, and it may or may not vary with the volume controls on the radio and steering wheel (I know this last 04/2005 X5 did not support the volume controls on that fixed line out). How do you plan to interface the LC6? I don't see that it can handle all the channels you need on the output side, and if you use it on the input sidee, I don't know if you can configure the knob on the LC6 to control overally volume instead of just the sub output level that it's labeled to control. If you use the LC6 on the preamp lines (which it's not designed for) you have 4 channels left over, as you also do with the EQS, unless you "Y" into the EQS and EQ your F and R and Sub channels separately. I find that of dubious value, but I'm not sure what you're planning. Quote:
Of course, I don't see the DLS dome mids fitting in the OEM locations in the dash, so I think it's a moot point. The smallest DLS dome mid is a 2.5" dome not counting the frame, and the BMW cone mids ate only 2" across. Also the DLS dome mids are not rated to play as low as the OEM cone mids, so they would blow up if you tried to use them as a direct replacement using the OEM signals from the amp. Quote:
But it doesn't matter much if they don't fit. I'd go low-xover-point tweeter in the mid location and a good capable midbass and call it a day personally. Last edited by el_duderino; 08-03-2005 at 10:01 PM. |

thanks but I mentioned earlier in my email that i sent you that would I be better off just getting the seven Loc's and cable them like janix did and also does phoenix gold the eq works in conjuction with the LOC.s or by itself.
thanks |

Then we ran that into the EQ. The EQ has two outputs. We ran one of those to the fader knob up front, and ran two RCAs back from that to the F and R amps. The other output of the EQ we ran out to the sub amp. We ignored the R door mid and midbass outputs because the customer clearly wanted a full-range R door signal, and one of his biggest complaints was how the R doors wouldn't play vocals for squat and sounded tinny. I beleive that some other X5s do play a "full-band" signal out the R doors, but I can't pretend to know a lot about their changes from year to year and system to system. Hope that answers your question... sorry about that. |

I recently replaced the front and rear midbass speakers and front tweeters in my 2002 x5 4.4 with DSP with Boston Acoustics Pro speakers.
This made a tremendous difference compared to the stock plastic crap 8ohm speakers. I also replaced the factory shitty sub with a Phase Linear Alliante 12"LTD and a (dont laugh, this is really a top quality model) Kenwood KAC 1023 600WRMS amp. I used a caliber high to low converter to convert the signal. Sound quality is now really acceptable (as long as the echo effects are disabled)! Only thing I would still like to accomplish is a stereo input for my DVD system, and a dension ICElink for my ipod. Especially the DVD input is puzzling me, does anyone know how to connect the dvd player in stereo without losing the oem TVtuner functionality?? |
