Line Out Setting

If ANYONE (other than wannabe) who painfully made their way through reading the original "mono out" thread believes it went the way wannabe says it went, please speak up.
Maybe I've lost all my marbles and I'm the one all along who was spreading misleading information.

you see he has a habbit of taking something small someone said and turning it into a huge drawn out debate.

At present i'm running a audio control eq that converts rca connectionsup to a 14 volt, the only thing i cant get right is what freq's to run the speakers at its a 13band eq the only one i seem to have right is the sub which i'm using the 80hz, if i post up the rest of the setting for front and rear maybe you guys could advise me on the setting i need to use?
thanks

there is nothing misleading in saying that quality RCA type connections are prefered over high-level. i thought we agreed on that. so i have a hard time understanding why you ever turned that into such a huge argument.
Finally, in the end, we all did agree on the priciples discussed in that thread and everyone was happy to leave it alone..... until YOU somehow convinced yourself to forget the details of the old thread and found it necessary to TRY to redeem yourself in this one.
I don't have anything against your car audio philosophy. My problem is with how you've gone about making your points and fabricating details. You seem to enjoy arguing and then act stunned when I (or anyone else) continue by responding.

If I understand you correctly Cliffybabe, you are asking how to go about setting the 13 bands of your eq. Correct? Unfortunately, the answer is that it's very, very difficult to do a good job of this by ear.
Ask your car audio shop if they have a spectrum analyzer and a CD with pink noise. If they install multi-band equalizers on a regular basis, they should. What they need to do is play the pink noise CD through your system and measure it with the spectrum analyzer to see which frequencies are over-emphasized and which frequencies are under-emphasized. Only then can you make informed decisions about what relative level to set each band of your EQ.

i am doing the opposite of forgeting the details. this was a detail that i remebered so i found something that backed my stand on it. there is no "fabrication" in anything ive said.
and yes, i am stunned when someone decides to argue what is well known in the audio world. you are the one who seems to find something to argue with in every post to the point where we end up on a new subject everytime and lose sight of what first sparked the debate.
and i did first refer to low-level/ RCA as line level. you preceded to correct me that line-level means high-level. when what we were really discussing is the performance difference between the two.
anything left to clarify?
lord, i shoulve known better. i brought this back jokingly and here we are again.
