Higher slopes means the filter attenuates the signal from that output at a higher rate.

No. With all due respect, based on the questions and comments you have been posting in this forum, you need to get help from a professional installer shop in your area.

If you are an installer then you need to research this and figure it out, or (and I mean this sincerely it is not a slam) go to school. I suggest reading the entire www.bcae1.com site and this site starting with the "Mobile Electronics Basics" link on the left. You really should understand these things before you call yourself an installer. Otherwise, you are perhaps a technician who works for an installer. Asking questions liike you have in this thread demonstrate a basic lack of knowledge that I consider required for any installer.

I decided against an "In Death paper" and opted for an slightly "In Death Picture" Hope it helps.
