JL 600-6 with MB Quart 3 way

VF154 · 09-07-2016, 06:38 PM

I finely have some time to intstall the JL 600-6 with cleansweep and MB Quart speakers in the doors and under the seats I order about a year ago. I also used techincs wire harness to connect everything together. My question is the the setup for the amp. Did anyone use a voltmeter to adjust the settings for the amp as it said in the instructions to set the volume at 3/4 and just the amp until you get 17.4 vac ?

I did not with my JL 400-4. I believe it's unrelated but the amp stopped working about a month after a I bought. I basically copied what others had done with regards to settings and it sounded great...until it didn't.

Ymmv. Sorry for the inconclusive story. I've since put back in the OEM amp until something else worth having pops up.

Also, the increased volume of the door gong, etc. I found a bit annoying with the aftermarket amp. Maybe one can change the volume via the Carlu adapter further than with iDrive? Not sure

I've got a set of the MB quart waiting to go in myself, I plan on keeping an eye on this.
