I have a Clarion DRZ9255 Headunit, JL Audio zr525cSi's, a JL 300/4 pushing those.
Using the headunit as an active crossover; has 8 channel preouts, each with high and low pass x-overs. Built in 5 band equalizer which you can chose your eq points.
My question is that nearly everytime someone in a song says an S it is kind of harsh. I have adjusted the gain on the amp, the x-over points, the polarity, the gain of each driver, the q of each driver, pretty much every function on the amp and decks. Was wondering if anyone has seen or heard of a fix for this.
It's most likely the tweeter itself that's sounding too harsh. If it's possible to turn the treble down a bit, that might be the only way to resolve the problem besides replacing tweeters.
