Car Audio Setup

[craigs01]

Hi guys im new the to forum last week i got myself a 1998 Corsa B 1.4L 8V, i went on ebay looking at sub+amps for it and came across one where someone spelt woofer as woffer so i decided to bid on it, ended up getting it for 49 quid for a 500watt rms, 1000watt peak amp&sub i was happy, its a Fusion Amp and a JL Audio sub, i also bought some 6 inch speakers from maplins for 16.99 and a JVC KD-LHX551 touchscreen head unit, ran all my wires i got a 4awg wiring kit from halfords, i was messing about with the radio playing some songs thru my ipod and when i play songs with alot of bass in, all you hear is the subwoofer, you cant really hear the voices over it, the headunit gives out 25w RMS and 52w peak the speakers in the back are 25w RMS 180w peak and the front are the standard ones with the car, do you guys have any idea what i can do so i can make the voices be heard over the sub, ive tryed the obivous of turn down the subwoofer level on the headunit and turn down the bassbooster on the amp, any other idea's ???

thanks

the lower the Hz the more bassy it is so turn the Hz up intill your happy or run out of options

[craigs01]

what about kHz

[roperstun]

what about kHz

a KHz is 1000Hz hence the killer (1000) at start
