Keep in mind when installing the replacement drivers that on the older Monitor series speakers, on the internal leads to the drivers the BLACK wire is Positive (+) and the WHITE wire is negative (-)....

Not sure on the excursion part but the MM grill attaches with 4 screw through the grill, through the driver, then into the enclosure. The othe 4 screws go directly through driver into the enclosure. ...

I didn't like the lack of buttons either coming from alpine for several years but got used to it quickly. Again, its all preference. Something is gonna have to give in a +/- $300 head unit. Cant have...

Pio's will be in the $3-400 neighborhood, as people are still buying them up. still a good deal though.
Yeah I'd like a drz9255 as well but yes, pricey, pricey or were you thinking the hxd-1, super...

For looks and performace with all the mentioned features, I'd go Pio 880/800. the 800 is all black, which is way better looking IMO, but I lost the action for one and got the 880, still good looking...

Do you have a price range in mind? ("as cheap as possible" doesn't count as an answer:wink:) I agree most of the newer units look like space crap and have poor color choices to boot...

Ok will try. Somehow all my settings got erased from what I did last night so will be doing it over again anyway...

Any particular reason why to not have it -2/0?

Oh, you have more options then. The Pio units you mentioned are good, I use a 880(functionally the same as the 800 for tuning), I've heard good things about the eclipse cd7200II, the alpine 9855(?)...

That's what I used after trying sine tones. So I basically want to go up the eq bands with punk noise tones on left and right an basically even them out? Example- if left ch is +4db at 500hz and...

3way active front stage plus a sub? If so then yes options without an external processor are limited. The Pioneer dexp99(current top of the line, stage 4 unit) does it and maybe the clarion drz9255...

When trying to level match L/R channels, should I be using sine wave tones or pink noise tones with an SPL meter?

Yep, was saying "if" it were paper instead of poly...

The tape idea will most certainly work and if the hole is as small as stated, a perfectly fine solution. I wouldn't use electrical tape but...

Yep, I really am hard headed...:rolleyes:

Finished the a/d/s amp install with the exception of tidying things up and went back to a 2way w/ sub.
SR6500 drivers in the doors and tweets in the sail...

Agreed, especially with the poly material these cones are made of. They are pretty flexible but will still crack. There will be less of a chance of it spreading if it is a true puncture (no real...

I would be more worried about if the voice coil got damaged/deformed from the hit. To answer the actual question, no, a tiny hole in the cone wont really affect anything. From your descriptioh the...

I do not and I agree, sounds like a bad idea... It is a discontuinued unit. The only way to get one would be ebay or a forum member here or elsewhere that is selling one. For what its worth I got one...

sure

Indeed it does. Maybe I am just hard headed and "want" to make this work:wink:

Thanks for the continued input guys, Its greatly appreciated!

Get that thing tuned up!

I'll be messing with mine some after work too. something is funky with the amp I installed last night.

Look like standard driver terminals to me. You can use something like these to connect it:

Not sure what size would be appropriate, these come in 1/4"...

Yeah, I saw the other thread about the amp and tweeter problem. I'm sure the A-pillar loc is great, I have no room there even for tweeters unfortunately. Drivers side is taken up by a gauge pod and...

I had s imilar experience some years ago when looking for a car. I had my eye on a minty fresh 93 RX-7 twin turbo (always wanted one).

Small used car lot and they wouldnt let me drive it. Their...

My .02....

Have owned 2 modded turbo eclipses, one FWD the latter AWD.
AWD owns.

While a 400+ AWD daily driver is a blast, it has gotten tiresome over the years, with it being loud, stiff...

Not sure if it was mentioned elsewhere in the thread but, are you still using the SR's in the doors or have you completely moved away from them?

Has the system produced sound yet or are you still...

I think you mean Aux in. The 880prs has a front 3.5mm mini plug input on the faceplate for the auto setup mic but it doubles as the Aux 1 input, only downside is the faceplate has to be open to use...
