Gold Member Username: Alias747MN Post Number: 1461 Registered: Apr-05 | That Cactus stuff looks sick. I can tell they are just a SPL based comapny. Where the heck would you buy there stuff anyway? |
|
Gold Member Username: James1115Ct Post Number: 6976 Registered: Dec-04 | been looking at that also Chad I have been looking into them since we talked about them a month or 2 ago. |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindWASSUPUSA Post Number: 6324 Registered: Oct-05 | B.......make sure you change the PFM subsonic filter module to 25hz. the epicenter comes with 33hz. it won't hit the lows as much. i called audioncontrol and they only cost $15. ima order mine today. i don't know if the eqx or the matrix has a pfm subsonic filter module too but if they do, i am certain they are set at 33hz as well. you gotta change them all if you want that low hitting bass. |

Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 155 Registered: Sep-06 | please allow me to ask a dumb azz question. Why would you need all of those? Wouldn't the one eq. be enough? ok go ahead and rip me. |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindWASSUPUSA Post Number: 6325 Registered: Oct-05 | thats a valid question impala. after installing all those equipment and fine tuning them, the difference would be night and day. the eq is self explanatory. the epicenter will add that missing bass in your music. alot of the times the bass is recorded at a high frequency. the epicenter will take that high freq recorded bass and drop it down an octave so it will play out on your subs. the matrix gives a boost when you are driving multiple amplifiers. (makes a big difference in sound. i was able to hear the difference.) |
|
Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 156 Registered: Sep-06 | wow, you guys are too cool. i've learned alot from this forum site. I called audiocontrol, they recomended the epic 160, dqxs 6 ch., and a matrix. had it not been for this thread i wouldn't even know this was nessesary. i've always used just a regular eq. and thought that was as good as it got. |
|
Silver Member Username: Impala63ragPost Number: 157 Registered: Sep-06 | oopps, just seen the price tag on that monster, dqxs. jury's out on that one. |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindWASSUPUSA Post Number: 6327 Registered: Oct-05 | lol they do get a bit pricey. but worth it imo. |

Bronze Member Username: Nd4spd18Post Number: 79 Registered: Jul-06 | How exactly does an epicenter work, does it add bass boost? And wouldn't it make the amp clip if it does that? |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1324 Registered: Jan-06 | no the epicenter takes the higher freq. and dropps them lower so they will play on your sub. its not bass boost. bass boost just over emphisises bass notes |
|
Bronze Member Username: Nd4spd18Post Number: 80 Registered: Jul-06 | Oh ok, but would that do anything on music that already has a lot of bass in it? |
|
Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 1327 Registered: Jan-06 | from what chad has told me it just smooths out the bass in songs that already have heavy bass |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindWASSUPUSA Post Number: 6329 Registered: Oct-05 | it comes with a bass knob so you have the control over how much you want it to process the bass. its not a bass boost control. for songs that already have hard hitting bass, you want to turn the bass knob almost all the way off. like mat said, it just makes even the hard hitting bass songs sound smoother. if all you listen to is rap or just bass songs, you really don't need the epicenter. for me i like variety so i like to have bass on all the songs i listen to. metallica sounds AWESOME with the epicenter. that is if you like that kinda music. also some rap songs have some muddy bass but the epicenter makes that sound deep as well. |

Gold Member Username: B101USA Post Number: 3680 Registered: Sep-05 | epic is for certain freqs 20-40hz...  do u guys know anything about harmonics? well I took a entire semester of Electronic Communications... VERY inresting stuff how harmonics actuall works... and what the epic does is Impressive I must say... lol it reads the upper harmonic and re-generates the lower harmonic.... like DEEP bass? Chad all my PFM modules will be 25hz... Still not sure what amp, but looking for something that does like 200x4 rms, to push 4 8" memphis components.. |
