groundzeroaudiouk Posted January 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 You don't want the mids on full range, they aren't needed to create low frequncys that's what subs are for, but yes if done correctly it would sound better where as the staging would be a little better, I will be running all of mine active when I get to that point thts wht iv been told by someone who is advising me to buy a 4 channel and wire them directly,he said mids on full range but i told him ur mids r suppose to be on low pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99fullsizechevy Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 You would need a high pass set at like 120-240 for mids and high pass set at like 4k? For tweets Quote Laying frame soon.. System has to wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99fullsizechevy Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Ive actually been thinking, you can make your own passive crossover boards that will make it exactly how you want it, lp at 4k hp at 100-120 for mids and hp at 4k for tweets... Or for mid sub/mid/tweet setup, 100-300 300-4000 then 4000+ all in one board, it's all about how much time/ how much cash you want spend.. Quote Laying frame soon..

Unless you can put your low pass to like 3khz. I have my high pass set to 80hz and use the passive crossovers that came with my componets. Eventually i would like to run active, but thats a whole new build, and right now im trying to get the most out of what i already have. If I were you I would just run passive ( crossovers that come with the componets). Mine sound great, maybe try to mess with the placement of your equipment to get better sound instead of trying to run active.
