The "Build me a budget system" thread prompted me to ask this, it's one of those things that you just never get around to until something brings it front and center.
The car in question has a decent factory stereo including a subwoofer beind the passenger seat (Pontiac Solstice 2 seater). The bass in the car is very boomy, I hate boomy bass so I have to keep it turned down low.
I've found over my life messing with audio equipment that this can often be remidied by restricting the signal fed to the sub (or just remove the upper bass freq from any full range speaker) to only the lower bass frequencies. Therefore I'd like to replace the existing or add in line a crossover, I'm thinking maybe 200hz?
Anyone have any suggestions as to where to get such a thing, and an adjustable one would be awesome so I can tune it to my tastes. Bring on the nice tight bass!
