Tebo Posted April 9, 2012 Report Posted April 9, 2012 they probably cant take much power and lack alot of midbass. Im going to assume the 3.5s are up front and the 6x9s are all in the back. Does that seem balanced at all? the front will get over powered like nothing, so replace them with 6s so atleast they will have a chance of keeping up Quote 04 dodge dakota ext cab 4x4 excessive amperage 300 amp alt with MONSTER stud =)sundown z v3 15 in a 4th order on aq2200sundown 100.4 2 way active...2 Prv audio 6mb200 & 2 re XXX tweetersdeka intimidatorkenwood x396big 3 1/0 knu wire back to deka intimidator

BEEMDUB Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) Ok last question which one of these two configurations should I use?

IBleedMusick Posted April 13, 2012 Report Posted April 13, 2012 I would run it just like this, very simple very clean and should sound good in the end. 4 Channel Amp - 50w x 4 @ 4 and 100w x 4 @ 2 Channels 1 & 2 - Supertweets mount them where the 3.5's on the dash are mounted now. Ditch the 3.5's because they would be pointless with your supertweets picking up the highs. Channels 3 & 4 - 6" Selenium Mids. Run it this way until you can get the funds for the 8" seleniums then you can run it then you would run it like this Channel 3 - 6" Seleniums Channel 4 - 8" Seleniums Doing it like this in the end will give you a nice blend of highs, mid range and mid bass. Running Supertweets and PA speakers require less power to get loud. I wouldn't run the by 9's or 3.5's at all. If you absolutely must, then run the by 9's but definitely scrap the idea to use the 3.5's at all and just put the supertweeters there.

You're always going to want to have the same drivers on 1 as you do on 2, and the same drivers you have on 3 as you do on 4. In other words, you want to have the same speakers on the right channels as you do on the left. I'd say just ditch the 3.5s. They probably aren't adding much anyway.

tlh_360 Posted April 15, 2012 Report Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) if he gets the selenium 6s wont he need a bandpass filter or can they just be ran on full? Edited April 15, 2012 by tlh_360 Quote
BEEMDUB Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Posted April 19, 2012 if he gets the selenium 6s wont he need a bandpass filter or can they just be ran on full? I would think I would have to bandpass them....but another question...how many electronic crossovers would I have to have for 2 st-200s, and 4 6x9s...(I want 2 6x9s to be like 100hz to 250hz and then the other two to pick up from there) Quote
BEEMDUB Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Posted April 19, 2012 also would it at all be possible for me to run my speakers just off of the amp? My p400-4 has low and high pass filters on it I see... Quote
