I hope understand what Peter just gave us all.....for FREE! This whole series should honestly be downloaded and watched, and watch, the rewatched again! There's so many tuning tips here PLUS the correct terminology explained and shown how to be used correctly. Thank you sir and you know if I could and didn't have my conditions, I'd be contributing. So please guys, and gals, Peter has a full time job....Patreon? Whatever you can do.... it's worth it!

Excellent ! Thank you Peter. I bet everyone agrees this video is not long but maybe even too short..no? You always leave your audience wanting more. Great job, can't wait until the next one.

Reason of watching again n again:- Till the time u don't face practical issues and question doesn't come to mind at it own we are not ready for answer, even we heard something before in video.

Having spent a day with you, having had you set up my car... having watched and talked to you all of that day (and bearing in mind that I come from a loudspeaker design past).. I watched this video and still learnt something.. you are amazing Peter.

This channel is the greatest, Peter is sharing years of experience and knowledge in the short video. I always dreamed of doing car audio on his level for a living. 👊🏼

Peter you always do I great job of explaining the topic. If anyone is bored you're not into SQ in Cars.im going to watch this video and others several times and take notes. Keep making videos and spreading knowledge.

This has been the video everyone has been eagerly waiting for. I know you’re trying had to not give all your secrets away Peter, but I thank you very much for the information you have shared and continue to share. If I ever get the chance to meet you, I’d love to buy you a beer. Next video idea... maybe just how to critically listen and evaluate purely by ear. Maybe some song tips but more what to listen for. Might help me and many others that when we do get a chance to sit in a well setup car we have an idea what to listen for. Thanks again mate 🍻

My mind jst cant process everything at the moment.. but i know ill be rewatching this video again.

this is a topic i would want to hear more about, especially how you can play with the rear fill. amazing videos as always. i appreciate you sharing your years of knowledge.

Great video! Thanks for taking the time to make it! The db level at the end cracked me up. I’ve seen it many times in audio forums. Perfectly flat with 50 dB scale. Lol.

This is all good information without giving too much. Thanks for your videos, I enjoy them very much!

Thank you do much Peter, I'm about to install and tune a 4" point source dash setup, and I'm going to run a helix dsp pro mk2, now I have the confidence to just give it a go, fingers crossed. Thank you for all your video's, we all learn so much when you share even a fraction of your knowledge.

Another great informative video Peter, they can never be too long don't worry about that. It shows tunings an art.👌😎

Just implemented the rearfill technique today for the first time and wooooo what a difference! You’re the best Peter! For sure going to get a patreon membership soon cause you are a real value adder man. Great stuff 👍

Man... u r good,,, again n again i am watching ur video to recall more.... then i go back to car and try tune something and after again i watching ur video.

Thank you so much for your videos! Although I've only been watching for a few weeks now, I've watched most of your videos...

Great video. You showing this makes it easier to understand

As much as I like seeing your installs, THIS video might be your best!

Excellent video. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge and experience. 🙌

Peter have to bow deep for all the information you are sharing. I was out of the game over 10 years and I wish I had these videos when I was competing in Emma back in late 2000s. Thanks mate, really appreciate all of the information you are sharing !

Very informative video , can’t wait to have you work your magic and set mine up 👍🏻

Thanks for all the videos that you have put out. It's really helped me allot with my system.

Very, very good. Extremely helpful and informative on this one. Thanks.

Great video. I will put in use your shared information on the weekend when I will be trying to fix some of my issues with 3 way speakers 😂 Thank you for the video 🙂

Great as always Peter

Great tutorial Peter, Hello from California, enjoy your videos very much👍🏻

Revisiting this series. Pete talks with the voice of a million mistakes, and I mean that as a complement, as when he says "you could pump 10db into there, it won't work" it's because of the time invested he's been there and done it.

WOW. Thank you Peter!!!!

great video; really nice to watch it. especially refill. thank for info!

My favourite video of yours. Many thanks for this. Much appreciated.

i wait for this for long time.. thank you sir

Awesome information Peter!

This video was REALLY interesting and really informative. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us :)

Thank you for this information. I have learned a lot from your channel.

Thanks for yet another great video. Lern a lot thanks again.

Really awesome video. Thanks for this

Great video!! Thank you, please keep making videos

Time for me to get out and eq some more. I've been waiting for you to make this video. Good work man!

Thanks for the tip on rear fill execution

THANK YOU!!! I know there are many eq videos but... damn! I only undestand and like the way you explain🔥🔥. Part 2 PLEASE!!! Love it!

Thanks for the class... Profe... Very appreciate.

As always, a good and informative video. For me, tuning is like a black hole I get sucked into...

thanks for this video, learned a lot again

I wish I had these skills. That or you were closer to me. Amazing video Peter. Amazing. Bravo Sir

very well done. I've told people in the past that doing what you've just demonstrated can get you, 70%-75%, maybe 80% if you're good, of the way to a really good system. The rest needs good ears and understanding of what is happening in the car. Having said that, that 75% to a customer maybe incredible and most people would be quite happy with that. But take that to a competition or let someone who really knows what they are doing listen to it and watch it get torn apart lol.

For me (yes, I'm a geek) this was like watching an awesome action movie, eyes glued to the screen. I was just missing the popcorn.

Hertz Mille legend ML700.3 mids and Hertz ML280.3 tweeters. Hertz XL woofer . I’m running the same tweets and mids . I’m not fully complete yet . Still need a tune also .

Hi Peter, cool, here at 23:50 you show how you generate the difference signal for the rears. You demonstrated this to me in Bad Salzufflen in the Mercedes. Since I have a P6MK2 in my car, I can set it up in no time... I've been using it here on my PC for years. And yes: This creates a much larger space, although the focus, as all mid-range signals are removed, doesn't change at all. But the whole thing becomes much more realistic and has more depth. As you say! You can also simply connect the whole thing between the two plus connections of the front speakers. So the rear ones in series and then the plus connection of one to RF+ and the negative connection of the other to LF+. The level can only be adjusted using series resistors.

Yeah , Peter's "OCD " lol makes his installation, is why I watch ,, good info peter!! Thanks

Greetings from Greece!!! Thanks for sharing the knowledge. I was trying to eq driver's side midbass cancellation at 150hz with no luck. Now I know why

thankyou! very interesting!

Thanku for the knowledge!!!

Which type of stereo RCA wire do u run from radio back to dsp (coax or twisted)

Thank you!

very interesting. thank you.

Excellent job and professional patience I wish you were in the Washington DC area, but I'm a invest soon in dsp technology but I got 3 builds but I'm a focus on 1 till I get decent with the equipment. What do you think of audio control dsp?

Amazing video! I had a question, does the Helix HEC HD audio USB interface cause any issues with iOS devices after iOS 12 like loss of connection in between, Lack of charging & Sometimes the hec usb is not recognized only? I was considering getting one but was told that such problems exist. Can you comment on this?

Hello! New subscriber! Keep up the good work. If you have a DSP like alpine pxh800 that can decode Dolby digital and DTS and apply Dolby pro logic with stereo tracks, you would not have to do anything special with rear fill aside from timing and EQ right??

Great tuning videos, thanks for posting them. Do you use REW for time aligning left and right drivers?

Hi I love you videos, great job. I have a question for you. Using a DSP (Helix for example) how would you EQ for a 2 passenger setup? Would you set the EQ and TA for the middle of the car? Or maybe She the left EW and TA for the left passenger and right EQ and TalA for the right passenger? Or something different? Hoping to hear back, thank you

Grate video you just gave us years of experience in just 35 minutes thanks a lot. What's your favorite dsp to use? Btw thanks again for the great video.

How do you avoid compensating for reflexes that are not part of the percieved origin of the sound? Nearfield measurements? Multiple mic positions?

Very helpful.

I just bought an amp and need to buy wire for the amp and Big 3 ... what brand/size cable, clamps, fuse holders, braided protector, etc., was used here?

My music collection has a lot of varying recording qualities. Is it better to save different EQ presets on the DSP, or is it ok to just change the 3 band EQ on the head unit on the fly based on the individual song? I have a lot of varying music genres spanning 5 decades plus a large collection of music given to me by different club DJ's here in Miami, Florida. Thx for your wisdom as always.

Has your experience with direct digital in been good?

Now i know i don't know nothing.....Thx a lot Peter.....I'm fighting my demons here....Big ones!!!🤣

You mentioned MiniDSP, in relation to the mic, but may i ask what do you think of their car dsp products? Any good? I have the C-DSP 6x8 - just wondering.

Hello, do you run your amp on full pass. Low pass all the way down and full pass all the way up and just let your dsp do all the work. Or do you set amp just past the frequencies that you have dsp set at???? Do you get a cleaner sound that way instead of just running amp frequencies wide open??? I’m wanting to get a dsp and want it to sound as clean as possible. I’m working on upgrading my system and still deciding on what dsp but this is an important question for me because I’m wanting it to be as clean as possible.

I hate how people say "look it up" as if you were not in a beginners position before.... I have always believed if you know something it cost you nothing to share... yes there is information online but for a beginner were do you start? How do you set up rew ? How do I get a house curve? We are all here to learn and embrace this hobby of ours..

I have an Alpine PDR-F50 where should I set my gain should I leave it on normal or one mark pass normal?

Great video Peter what sort of time was spent on the tuning of that build ?

This video helped me a whole lot. I tried clicking the link for the phase coherency but it's private

I have two questions: 1. You refer to a wideband/tweeterless setup have a linear curve with the ultra high end rising. By chance could you share a target curve for that type of setup? I have desperately searched online with no success. 2. Love your work but I live in Seattle, WA USA and wondering if have anyone you would recommend on my side of the pond?

Best video on the topic I've ever seen! Well done Peter! Thank you. I'll be watching this many times I'm sure. 30:00 Gates ???

Peter, I could hear the song “Troubles what you’re in “ by Fink in the background of one of your videos. If you haven’t already , listen to “Heart Beat” Antonio Forcione Quartet: in concert. It’s live and very immersive. I know it’s on Tidal .

U mik1, REW pc, do you also use a sound card ?

Yes finally 😁😁

Hi again Peter, I have my 7” mid bass mounted in the door with plenty of treatment. I’m currently using the foam “STINGER FAST RINGS” and the round foam thing that sticks to the door skin that sits right behind the woofer . I’m sure the front ring helps a bit but what do you think about the thick whole one that sits on the inside door skin. As I think about it I feel as if it would kind of kill my mid bass 🤔 . I just don’t wanna pull the speakers out to remove them and find it’s not a better response. Thank you so much once again.

Great video. Why do you use 90deg calibration file for UMIK? You use it for the mike pointing up to the ceiling?

those surely look like the PDX-V9 amps. wish alpine still offered those, they are solid! i'm powering Morel 603 comps, a rear fill midrange and a pair of TW3 10's off one of those. after 6 years, still running strong.

Hi Peter. Love your videos. I asked you a few months ago about AE 15" vs. Fi IB 15" and thank to you, I ended up going with the AE and am thrilled. I use a Helix in my car. Focal k2 3 way active system with sub. 24db slopes, Linkeitz-Riley crossover. TA by distance. EQ by playing pink noise and taking averages of each driver, making circles around my ears into REW. For some reason, my speakers always sound "bright". Very detailed but always bright. Turning down the mids/tweeters, I lose too much detail. I tried playing with the Audiofrog house curve and reducing the 2000-5000hz range but I can never seem to get it right. Someone mentioned to me about looking at phase issues, but I don't even know where to start? Any tips? Love you videos thank you!

So,if I understand correctly, with differential rear fill, you reverse the polarity of the right channel, mix it 50/50 with the left channel, and then it goes to the left speaker channel and vice versa?

Especially, when he fills his enclosures with water , to confirm his cubic air space, you dont see that on any other car audio shows!;

Maybe this is nice to know, for some volkswagen head units it is possible to switch the speaker level outputs to low level (rca) output so they can run a dynaudio system with amp and so..

If I get like 2" or 3" mids do you even use the little crossover that comes with it? I can understand caps on the tweeters to protect them.

What USB Module do you use for Digital out from Ipad to DSP? @PSSOUND

If rear fill tuned properly, can i use it on EMMA competitions? (because technical tracks)

Do you have the make and model of the hack USB module for iphoen/ipad? To get digital audio directly into the DSP.

I noticed you use a Butterworth 24db slope crossover for all your speakers. I was under the impression that a 24 db linkwitz Riley style crossover was more widely used. Or does it simply just come down to personal preference?

Hi Peter, many thanks for the whole series, it's damn educational for one to understand SQ A to Z !! Just wondering if there's a way to implement differential rear fill at physical level, should the DSP not have this kind of functionality for IO setup. For example, I have a PXA-H800, but it does not have this function, and would really love to achieve diff rear fill. Many thanks for your valuable info once again !

Hi peter , you know anything about STEG audio company? Legit speakers or just run or the mill ?

I got a question regarding tweeters, what do you do about a tweeters power handling in relation to the amps power output to prevent blowing the tweet when tuning? I know through a dsp your are able to dial back each channels specific gain, so is there a general rule of thumb on how much to dial back to compensate for the power handling difference? I've read through the audio frog guide you linked but no luck. Enjoyed your videos as always.

Could be a 10 bands parametrics eq enough for get this linear results ? ( my dsp only has 10 bands but i think if i could have 31 i could get better curve / more linear ) Greetings!

Today I took time and did some learning with rew and hmm... Alpine say it's parametric eq in their HU, but find out it's really Limited especially with eq band frequency select. I managed to use 8/9 bands, because you can't select right frequency. Well, real dsp is already waiting to Be installed. Just wanted to try what you can do with HU eq.

Whats your thoughts on smallers subs have better punch and sq than 15 inch subs ? I thought i heard the best sq with jl w6 v3 12 sealed... And alot of 15 inch sq subs... Then i tried my alpine type s 8s i bought for my doors a year ago underhung voicecoils witch is really rare in a sealed box and i never heard so much accurate punch in my life and there cheap.. ive tried IB and all so is it true snaller subs just have better impact and sq? All these years in so dissapointed in finding out this late whats ur thoughts man?

Is it possible to set up/simulate differential rear fill with a dsp that doesn't have that function in-built? If so, can somebody please explain to me how to do it?

I have the mic that came with my Denon home theater receiver for the auto tuning feature. Should work for tuning my car audio system?

Bem legal esses cabos encapados com essa malha ai

When making measurements to set delays between the speaker and the listening point, should the measurements be taken from the grille to the listening point? or would it be more correct to remove the grilles and take measurements from the listening point to the base of the speaker cone without the grille?
