The Logic 7 System on my 2011 Is Terrible!

I must say, the HK Logic 7 system is crap!


The sub and mid-bass drivers are all under dampened. There's way-way to much mid-range energy in the vehicle and the tweeter sound bargain basement specials, absolute poor timbre...


I like the head end interface, but the sound is highly compressed, and full of peaks and nulls...


I don't wish to remove the factory interface of add a massive compliment of amplifiers, new speakers and subs, but I will if I have to.


I just ordered a small but featured packed amplifier from Audiotech Fisher the P Six DSP... I stalled it this past weekend and have been spending parts of my evenings since, calibrating the system. I must share that while the system sound much-much better, it's mile from being hi-end...


I just picked up a set of Focal 165KVX2's... I'll be installing them this coming weekend. I also ordered 4-dayton LFE pucks... I am going to attempt to develop a satisfactory system without using a sub... but again I will if I am forced to...


Some of you may be interested to know that I got rid of the rear deck rattle in under a minute and for under a dollar. If any one is interested in how, let me know and I'll share.


Cheers, I'll keep you posted as the system progresses...

You're spot on about the HK's shortfalls. Try the Audison Prima 8.9. It'll get you where you want to be and have you loving the car. See the write up in the link in my sig.
