PWX Ft1 in doors. Help on running active


Mikey Bates

Recommended Posts

I have PWX 10s coming in and soon will order my FT1 Tweets and PWX 6.5s.

The 10s are 300rms and 4ohm each

The 6.5s are 150rms and not sure but either 4 or 8 ohm. wanna order after i figured out what i want them at

And the FT1 Supertweets are 80rms and 4ohms each.

Each door will have 1 10, 2 6.5s, a tweet in the door. and a tweet in the dash.

There will be a total of 760rms per side. and 1520rms total.

My question is I have 3 RCA outs on my Kendwood deck. what kind of amps/crossovers/anything do i need in order to run an active set up properly.

I want to make sure everything is crossed over very well and such

you will either need an amp thats active capable or a processor to filter the frequencies out.

by processor im guessing like a 360.3 right? what are some amps that are active capable? <- Would they basically have a really nice EQ set on them? so you can set the top and bottom to everything?

The crescendo amps are active capable if you want to run matching gear.

So would this work. Get an 1100.4. its 300rms x 4 at 2ohms. I could run 2 6.5s to 1 channel. The other 2 6.5s on another channel. ( each 6.5 will be 4ohms and each pair wired down to 2ohms ) This covers my 6.5s. Then can i run the other 2 channels at 4 ohms ( is this possible 2 channels at 2 ohms and the other two at 4 ohms ) If so i can pair 2 8 ohm tweets and wire to 4 ohms. They are 80 rms each so 160. and the amp is 180 so i'll just have to set my gains good. All that's left are my 10s......Thoughts? and i'll also be running most likely 1 Ft1 and 1 6.5 in the rear doors keep in mind

Just to clarify

Channel 1: Two 6.5 Mids, each 4 ohms wired to 2 ohms. This makes the amps 300 rms and the pair of 6.5s 300 rms

Channel 2: same as channel 1

Channel 3: Run a Pair of 8 ohm tweets and wire to 4 ohms. Tweets would be 160rms and amp is 180 watch the gains

Channel 4: Same As channel 3

Conflict, can i run Channel 1 & 2 at 2 ohms and 3 & 4 at 4 ohms?

Also This leave My 10s

what kind of kenwood deck? it may already be active capable. An external crossover is always your best bet though.
