[QUOTE=Bertk;15114896]Ok thanks. The distorting speaker was the one you sent in for warranty?

I was told to hold on, on sending it in by mike. I heard they got some speakers in so I called could not reach mike, so I talked to someone else and they told me that I have to send it in first. So now I am sending it in today and looking at around 2 more weeks before I can get them.

I went and bought a cheep set kickers at best buy so i can have some tunes but those things sound like crap. I don't think that's going to cut it.
Did talk to Mike at BT they are still behind on orders, they are supposed to call me tomorrow about buying a speaker to replace mine then they will refund me after they look at it.

Would the hertz mille pro sound good in lowers. I am planning on lowers sometime in the future.

Dude, you da man! You have ALL the pics!

Can you tell I'm very visual...

The HPF settings are straight forward, but the gains are not marked.

No dealer flash. The only thing done was the update 1.19. 2 which did change the way it sounds. I rolled it back to 1.19.1 to get the sound back but I don't think it sounds the same.
I did get the kickers to sound better after using poly and some adjustments.

Perhaps reset the HU to factory, then re-upgrade to 1.19.1?
