To obtain a "flat" signal, after the fix is installed, you run the JL provided test tone. (Download to flash drive from the website) The fix will automatically correct the signal to flat when you run the calibration process per their directions. It's literally as simple as hooking up the fix from the headunits speaker out wires to the fix-open the new software-play the test tone through the headunit at 3/4 volume (with bass-treble flat and fade to center) and click the "calibrate button" 2-5 minutes it's done.

To date this is the 4th bike I've done with the 2.0, all different flashes (including my new 2017 ) and yes it does the same for all. It's turning out to be a great unit for simplicity and tuning.
It's not going to replace the TWK or the arc psm, as they are a much higher capable unit, but again simplicity and adjustability are key with this DSP compared to any other. And now with the built in capabilities of the crossover-voltage selection and the 10 band eq it's going to be hard to beat it.
You can simply click the "bypass" button on the "tune" tab to get the "before" calibration sound then click again to get the optimized "after" sound. It amazing to hear and see this. They really did their homework on this unit and may be my go to for regular installs on the 2014+ bikes keeping the factory HU.
Of course for all of us that are banned from filling our bags and packs with any more audio equipment, where are u mounting the JL stuff? Based on the above bag space limitation being the closest alligator to the boat, I think I'm committed to the ARC PSM (regardless of simplicity) unless u have a secret hiding spot in the fairing.
T, i wanna say he has it all in the tour pak if i remember right, but i could be wrong.
Correct, in the tourpack.
That's the TWK in there but the fix took its place. Even with the JL amp strategically place and the FIX there we have no issue fitting the Harley trunk pack fitted bag in there for trips. Space loss in truly negligible. The 400/4 in in the fairing.
You can fit the FIX in the fairing but requires hacking the metal brace/bracket. Too much work.

Cool. Thx!!! Think I'm gonna stay the course with the ARC.
Did a complete rearrange and rewire yesterday and actually listened to the 602's with the fronts muted. The difference with the Tour Pak open and closed is like night and day I guess I really never noticed it.
Needless to say, I'm now thinking of changing things up lol
I'm gonna get with BAL next week and probably drop some of those MMat's in the front and see what I can do about the pods also.

and I thought I was close to done...
I'd Try reversing the polarity on one tour pack speaker and see what it does first. You may be surprised. The only other option I've seen is porting the tourpack. There's an easy formulation to do this correctly for the right size of port('s) needed but I'm not about to drill big holes in my tourpack.

Not far down the road from me is an authorized DD dealer who is also heavily involved in car audio comps. I'm thinking about swinging by there this week and see what they come up with for the tour pak dilemma.
I've seen pics of the tour paks being ported, but there is a science behind it. Too much or too little can mess you up. Replacing tour paks isn't cheap. LOL
