scooter99 Posted April 12, 2012 Author Report Posted April 12, 2012 Ok I think I've got it! Here's the diagram, not sure if it's big enough or not, I can't figure out how to blow it up! If you can't see it, I'll run it down for you. Here's the way it goes! From the Pioneer Head Unit: Front/tweeter: To Tweeters on the 4.600 channels 1 & 2 Rear/Mid: To Mid Range (6.5's) on 4.600 channels 3 & 4 Sub/Mid Bass: To Mid Bass (8's) on 1.1600 Signal then comes out of the 1.1600 pre out rca's into an Audio Control 6XS 6 Channel Electronic Crossover into the "Front" channels or in 2 channel mode. From the 6XS the outputs look like this: "Front Highpass Output" to the rear tweeters on the 4.600 channels 1 & 2 "Front Lowpass Output" to the rear mid bass on the 4.600 channels 3 & 4 "Subwoofer Output" to the Subs on the 2 - 1.2500D's Now, control. I obviously won't be able to control the rear stage like I was hoping to, but that's the way things go sometimes. I can, however, control the subs from the 6XS, or the amp volume control knob directly. I'm not sure which is best. Anyone have any input on this? Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build

scooter99 Posted April 12, 2012 Author Report Posted April 12, 2012 I was just hoping to be able to turn it down sometimes if I wanted to. But it's not a huge deal. I would like the ability to adjust crossover points though to tune it in. When I tune it, I'll tune it to the rear seats and that way it sounds great there, and not better up front then back. Make sense? Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build
scooter99 Posted April 12, 2012 Author Report Posted April 12, 2012 Ok so good news and bad news! I got my 2 Rubicon 4.600's in today! WOOHOO! But I'm pissed! I understood that they were manufacture refurbished, but here is what the description says, if you've never read it: "Manufacturer Refurbished: An item that has been professionally restored to working order by a manufacturer or manufacturer-approved vendor. This means the product has been inspected, cleaned, and repaired to meet manufacturer specification and is in excellent condition. This item may or may not be in the original packaging." So I opened them up and took a look and they're all messed up. They've got dings and scratches all over them, scuffs, dirt marks (like finger prints), and one of them even has the power led missing from it. Needless to say I'm pissed! I've emailed them already to see what they're going to do. Here are some pics: I'll let everyone know what happens! Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build
scooter99 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Posted April 13, 2012 Ok so here's the latest on the amplifier saga! They're sending me a return label, and giving me a full refund. So I'll happily be going to the other company as soon as those funds hit my account. Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build

scooter99 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Posted April 13, 2012 Ok, so I took half the day off to go home and take care of some stuff there. HOWEVER, right before I left, I got a little package! It was heavy, and I thought it was too small to be an amplifier! So what the hell could it be??? Let's open her up and see! WOOOOOOWWWWWWWW! For the weight I could not honestly believe this is what was in there! Really! These are bestial tweeter! Let's check em out! Little lacking in packaging but they weren't moving upon even shaking the box. I got myself a nice diagram on what to use for components on a crossover if I wanted to make one. Also included is a cap. It's certainly better looking in person that on line! These are sweet looking! So I decided to put em up against what they're going in the doors with. I was shocked. These are just as heavy if not heavier, than the 6 1/2" mid ranges. No bull! Size comparison! So needless to say, I'm very impressed with these! If they sound as good as they're built, these are gonna kill the highs! I can't wait! Gonna really have to think about the doors now. Cause I had no real idea they were so large! Not a problem, cause after moving the 8's to the center console, there's gonna be plenty of room! I also busted out the Pioneer DEH-80PRS, and the tablet. I had the thought that maybe, even if I'm not running the tablet off the usb, that the usb connection on the PRS might charge the tablet. Well, unfortunately, I get the red "x" on the battery on the tablet so that means no charging! Bummer! But that's ok, cause I still have that power converter that was designed for me, and I'll just continue to plan on using that! That's all for today! Facebook Page: S99Creations 2006 F250 Lariat Build

Ooohh I was skeptical about their PA stuff since I have never heard em in person but they look sexy, :popcorn for sound results. I say you put them on a test bench and tell me how they sound. Speaking of power converters pm your paypal email so I can get that item that we talked about. 2013 Dodge Charger Build Log 1996 Ford Explorer XLT 5.0Build Log 2005 Honda Civic LX Coupe Build Log SMD SUPER SELLER!!!!My Selling Feedback
