I apologize for sending the second email concerning what to do with the crossover networks.  I was in the process of reading the Secrets of Car Audio, and must admit I was confused between the two.  After re-reading the Time Alignment Schematic I see that there is no need for the Crossover Networks, so I will be packaging them, and possible selling them on eBay.

Today I received my Dayton Caps (1% Metallized Polypropylene).  As I have said in my previous email, thank you for the best 19.95 I have ever spent.  Your Secrets of Car Audio book could have been my autobiography.  During the entire time I thought I was “researching,” audiophile quality, I was making the same mistake as the character in your book, namely more is better and bigger is better.  Somewhere inside, while I am no technician such as yourself, I knew there had to be a scientific method to better sound, not bells and whistles, and your website has proven it.  In fact, I have been giddy all afternoon re-discovering my music.  Again, thank you.

As much as I thought I “enjoyed” my music, it has never been like this before.  Your Time Alignment Schematic has made my car a musical masterpiece.  I have never heard fidelity like this in car audio, ever.  It seems that High SPL and muddy midbass and shrill highs has taken car audio by storm.

I have recently stumbled upon a website (Parts Express, where I ordered the Dayton Caps) and I am seriously considering selling the rest of my Polk SR and picking out some other speakers (the Dayton Reference possibly) and creating my own system.  I especially like the Dynavox Drivers and Morel, however these are all 8 ohm drivers, which would see my total impedance 16 ohms, and I fear that this will make my amplifier useless.  Unless you think otherwise, which if you do, please let me know.  I can only imagine how busy your are so a quick yes or no will be much appreciated and understood.

Again, thank you for re-introducing me to music,

All the best,
