I'm planning on installing 4 Infinity KAPPA 682.7CFs into my 07 Mustang and I was wondering what everyone else has set their tweeter to +3 or flat? I'd like to get it set up right so I don't have to rip everything apart again. I have a stock stereo. Thanks!

I left it flat.

Dont know but +3dB is perceived as twice as loud.

logicbombx

actually +6db is twice as loud

oh6vee6

every 3db is perceived as twice as loud by your ears.

No, +3dB is twice as much power. +6 db is twice as loud in sound pressure decibels, I know, it's confusing.

The thing with this poll, is everyone has a different standard of hwat they like. You may like flat better or visa versa. You need to try it out. Get your favorite CD, put into one position, listen for about 15 minutes, with the doors closed, the set it to the other. I found at +3, it was too much high end for my taste. But what is weird is in my truck I have them set to +3 because it sounded better that way in the truck.

It is, because he's right. +3 db is what you get with double the power, or a second identical source and no interference. People perceive that as slightly louder, not twice as loud. I think you can test this for yourself with a stereo amp and two speakers.
