All the bass boost is turned off and the EQ is set flat (not bypassed). I measured the response with the meter from radio shack and it was located at the passenger side head rest. I sat in the back of the car during testing to make sure not to block the sound coming from the doors and get bad measurements. The speakers are located in the stock firebird locations. There is not tweeter level control that I know of.

My NINe.2X amp does have a HPF, I adjusted it to get rid of the 125-200 dip. And I don't know why I said I had the HD-62...It was getting late. I actually have the ES 07.1 which are about twice as expensive and much nicer and should have more midbass (7" mid-woofer). The equalizer is an Audio Control EQT

Here are some pictures of the setup:

Placement of the meter (ofcourse when testing, door and everything is closed)


This is my ES 07.1 in the door.


Audiocontrol EQT. I have them there so I can easily adjust the EQ, when I'm done I will move them to a more secure location. As you can see in the picture I have boosted some of the frequencies; they were set flat for all the response tests I did, I just adjusted them since then.



The xover I'm using for my tweets is the SatNet 560i
Link for the ES 07.1 series

Also, should I adjust each EQ (and speaker) independently? Like just unplug the left speaker. And adjust the right....Then try to match the right's response curve with my left speaker? Because I'm also getting imaging problems. The system overall sounds decent. But for what I paid, it shouldn't just be decent, it should be much better.
