Dan2427 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 So I'm in the process of re-doing my mids and highs. I finally decided on what speakers I want to use (Rockford T1652-S). I'll be using three sets of those (6 speakers 6 tweets) and Im trying to figure out how to wire it up, they are 4 ohm speakers and tweets are 4ohm I think too. So my question is what should I do for an amp? I'm thinking it'd be easiet to buy a two channel and wire them all together, but I dont know what the final impedance for wiring them together would be. I'll be using the rockford crossovers. Will this be amp work http://www.bostonacoustics.com/PDFs/manuals/GT_2ch_Man.pdf I know its a lil over powered but I've seen that crossovers take a good amount of power away too. I could be mis-informed. Any help or suggestions on an amp would be great. Thanks, Dan.

skittlesRgood Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 that link is to the specs on four different amps so it doesnt help any.

Dan2427 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 So from searching around a bit today it looks like I can get a 2.6 ohm load or .6, I'd run at 2.6 ohms. but if someone could draw up a diagram for me that would be great. Also if anyone else knows of amp that will do full range for speakeres at 2 ohm that'd be great!

Dan2427 Posted August 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 (edited) Ok so from talkin to irpirate on SMD here he thinks I should find a four channel and run active. The amp I'm lookin at now is the older RF T800.4 on the T1652-S still (6 mids, 6 tweets) I believe they are all single 4ohm, how about a diagram for that and crossover frequencies? I plan on buyin all this at the end of this month or early next month unless I find a steal on the speakers or amp. Thanks a lot, Dan.

MrSkippyJ Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 why not just use the crossovers that come with the t-1652s and use the bi-amp inputs? saves you from having to figure out crossover setups. You can put 3 tweets on one channel, 3 mids on another, the other 3 tweets on a 3rd channel and the last 3 mids on 4th channel. That would give you 1.34 something ohms a channel. Just find an amp that will do that Quote F150: Stock 2019 Harley Road Glide: Amp: TM400Xad - 4 channel 400 watt Processor: DSR1 Fairing (Front) 6.5s -MMats PA601cx Lid (Rear) 6x9s - TMS69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlstrass Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 changing the final ohm load will change the xover points/slopes of the passive crossovers... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSkippyJ Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 He won't be changing the ohm loads after the crossovers.

Dan2427 Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Ok do I put on full range or high using the crossovers that come with the speakers Quote 2003 GMC Yukon Denali Alpine CDA 117 Redoing Mids/Highs 4 Runs of 1/0 Knukonceptz 2+, 2- 4 Deka 9A31's in back (Stock underhood) 250 amp Alt.
