:plac: finds v2.0: Moar gold on the crangslist

:impressive: I think we all kinda got swept up in the hype of the GR Rolla. :iono: after I sat in one in person... I was pretty disappointed at the quality of the vehicle. The Corolla felt like a 20k econohatch and the civic felt a bit more like 35-40k. Yet their prices were a lot closer a 6 months...

Bass and treble are the first and last but I've never seen them in an EQ like that before. It's 7 bands if you exclude them. :iono:

I sat in it for a good 25 minutes playing around with the EQ to finally get it right. I think it sounds better but in no way is this some crazy knock your socks off sound system. :word: the reality is that if it’s incredible, it really shouldn’t need any EQ adjustments.

I think it needs more mids? It seems very flat even with raised bass and treble that seem to bring the curve up by default. I don't know if your 3 had it, but you can adjust 7 different frequencies on the EQ. That's too much for this :derp: I would suggest flattening all bands (honestly this is usu...

So as an 'audio engineer' by education and former trade, I would say that EQs should typically be subtractive and not additive. If you want more low end and high, leave them at 0 and lower the mid range. I think it needs more mids? It seems very flat even with raised bass and treble that seem to br...

Are a majority of the H/K speakers shared with the base car, but the H/K system uses a tuned amp? I would reach out to Bav Sound to see if they can't help. It might just be one of those things you'll want to budget for in the future if this is a long term car Not sure. The bavsound upgrade is $1k j...

You didn’t ask me… but I think yes. However, that’s only if you need the practicality. Type R is pretty impressive at/around MSRP, it’s light, fun, fast, reliable, and can do any dad/work/trip whatever stuff you throw at it. It’s basically what the M3 was in the E36 era. I think the 86 is pretty eq...

Gave the M its first wash today and was able to put some sealant on. Found a few more dots from the detailer of doom as well as a couple other things.

I can't like other cars? The bmw isn't going anywhere but I still like the Hype R.
Sure, just me personally I dont look at auctions and stuff for things i dont plan to buy :doe:
