BEEMDUB Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 If things go right tomorrow I should be getting a p400-4... and this is what I wanted to run off of it Chan1: 2 8ohm selenium st200 super tweets Chan2: 2 4 ohm Kicker DS350 3.5 (that are currently in my dash) Chan3: 2 BA 6X9s Chan4: 2 BA 6X9s Any problems with this? The only things I was wondering is if those 2 st200s running at 4 ohm wouldn't be pushed hard enough on that one channel? And would those 3.5 speakers be too overpowered on one channel at 2 ohms? If these are problems how should I configure things? I was thinking that adding 2 more st200s to channel 2 would be better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyG2 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) I think: Use channel 1 and 2 for the supertweeters, and get 4 crescendo/AQ/sundown/silenium PA 6.5s. Ditch the 3.5s and maybe mount your supertweets there. Edited April 7, 2012 by BobbyG2 Quote *New vehicle and system coming soon.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katt Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Also, I see you are running a mono setup here, if i think/read correctly? Quote *06 330i - Sundern x12 - saz-3500* *91 Foxbody V1 S-Trim Notch* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I see you are running a mono setup here, if i think/read correctly? How do you figure? Edited April 7, 2012 by BEEMDUB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyG2 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 Super tweeters are very sensitive, they don't take much power to get loud. They will be getting the same amount of power each on separate channels, but you'll get stereo imaging out of them, instead of mono being on one channel. And yes, the 6.5's replace the 6x9's. You could do 8", or 10" if you wanted, you'll have to do some modifications to your doors though.

Chan1: 1 selenium st200 Chan2: 1 selenium st200 Chan3: 2 selenium 6.5s Chan4: 2 BA 6x9s I would only be able to afford two of the 6.5s at the moment so I was thinkin I could just run the two 6x9s in the rear deck until I could afford two more 6.5s..also whats better stereo or mono?

Katt Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) I said Mono because 4 channels, Is used as FL, FR, RR, and RL ( In a common setup ). You seem to have in your first post, Tweets on the FL ( 1 ). The Kicker 3.5s on FR ( 2 ). and the 6x9s on RR ( 3 ) and RL ( 4 ). Meaning, the tweets as mono on one channel, the 3.5's mono on the second channel. and the 6x9s in stereo on channel 3 and 4. Unless you would be running two 400.4s. Im pretty sure im right on this, if someone else could chime in. Don't want to feel like a total idiot.

BEEMDUB Posted April 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Ahh I see what your saying.... Do you think my p400-4 could power all of those decently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tebo Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 your 2 super tweeters will still scream wired to 4 ohm, super tweeters are made to over power bass so they are stupid efficient most times.
