except for bi-amp and time delay right?

the timing correction is great. HU has to have its turned off of course.

sounds like you just need to play with the gains a little bit
If the toggle switches are white, that means BI-AMP on is in the down position, right?

In other words, the picture below is showing all toggles are down.

I wanted "ALL DOWN" except for 60Hz setting to be my baseline. I was planning on turning on compression based on the clipping, and I could turn on time delay as well.

Correct?

Yup. You should have Down, Down, Down, Down, Up, Up, Down, Up.

Tell me someone with all the above knowledge is in Houston to help me get dialed in? I'm about to drop some paper on a complete system, and I want to make sure I'm not leaving any sound on the table - and I have zero knowledge regarding settings / installation - any Bronco brothers in Houston?

Did you do any ForScan mods? I'm considering changing the speaker configuration settings for the rear pods to "Speaker & Tweeter" while also turning off the factory EQ. Front sound stage is already awesome, just trying to get the best since I received the OBDLink EX cable in the mail recently.

What are your thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Turned off factory EQ I believe. I have stock rear pods so left those as it. I set position off in head unit. Still loving the outcome too.

Same, my rear pods are stock. I'm going to turn the EQ off and give the rear pods full range as a "Speaker & Tweeter" as from the factory they are only configured as tweeters I believe, and then use the HU to offset the front and rear fade like you. I'll report back with the results.

I have a 2021 Bronco, been running the Kicker 200.4 and a plug and play harness since vehicle was new. I thought the poor performance from the amp was due to a cheap chinese made amp. Finally got around to making the changes you suggested. Cannot believe the difference, sound stage is wayyy better, clear, and no distortion anymore all the way up the volume knob! All done with the cost of some wire and sound deadening. Thanks AZ for posting!
