Head unit tuning advice
Long story short, I had everything really dialed in and sounding great. Then I got hit by a car and it took over 4 months to get my bike back up and running. In that time the battery was out and all the settings in my head unit got lost. I can't find the log I kept of when I did the initial tuning.
It's a really basic set-up so I'm hoping someone can guide me.
2 Hertz HCX 6.5's
2 Hertz HCX 6x9's
Soundstream PN4.1000D (amp settings should be the same before the accident. I tuned with a multi-meter so I'm pretty confident on those).
Sony MEX-GS810BH receiver
Looking for guidance on Slope settings, DSEE, HPF and LPF etc. I tried to get it close by ear, but I'm all over the place. I get it sounding good in the garage, then fire it up and ride it and it sounds like ****. Never used to be that way.
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Go to your custom settings on the HU.
Turn the DSEE off.
Turn the HPF off
Use these settings on your 10 band equalizer:
Band 1 +2 DB
Band 2 + 3 DB
Band 3 + 4 DB
Band 4 + 0 DB
Band 5. + 1 DB
Band 6. - 4 DB
Band 7 +2 DB
Band 8 +2 DB
Band 9 +1 DB
Band 10 +3 DB
Report back.

Put those settings in the head unit other night. I'm 99% sure the amp is already set on HP and crossovers where you recommend.
Sounds great in the garage. Hoping to get out on the road this weekend. I'll report back if anything changes, but i think you've nailed it. Thanks a ton.
