Si Coupe - Full JL Audio Upgrade

[mvela]

Very nice setup! Another JL fan. I got all my speakers changed out to. But I also changed out my head unit. But ended up getting two 10’s. I really like how they used sound deadening for the entire trunk. They only did the bottom of the rear deck on mine so it wouldn’t rattle. Congrats on your new system!

OP, so you are still using steering wheel or radio volume control? What is your result? Read below.

I've read up on the JL Fix and almost bought one a few days ago, but before doing so I found a concern. The JL Fix takes the signal output from the radio and tries to make it flat and equalize time delays, but it can only remain flat if you never change the radio volume. From reading on the subject, (I have no first hand experience), when the radio volume is changed so is the EQ being applied to the output. This makes the Fix DRC knob essential because it changes the volume after the Fix instead of before.

Same here. I have a very similar set up that I will be doing this week.

-FIX 86
-JL Audio HD750-1, SLASH 300/4v3
-2 JL Audio 12w3v3's
HERTZ MILLI 6.5 front and rear.

I would like to know how the FIX 86 was integrated into the system. I want to retain the factory center channel.
I wanna know if you have any issues with battery power also. Dimming lights and stuff. Ill be running roughly the same power as you are. Thanks for any help.

I've had my FIX 86 on my last three cars. What it does to the music is a work of art. You will not be disappointed with it. You do have to set it up properly once installed. Pink noise test. ITs very easy to do though. Just follow the instructions. The system sounds like crap before you preform the Calibration test. Trust me, night and day difference.

I have one on my Civic and It so much.
