KingPepsi Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 So I have been racking my brain over this one. Here is what I have so far. Stock BMW alpine head unit Audison Bit One Zapco 6ch For front stage 3 way active Zapco Z1kD for 2 8" Sundown V2 in ported box tuned to 34hz For front stage speakers im looking into focal or CDT Heres where i hit the wall. I am not sure if I should run some form of rear fill. With the bit one if I run 3 way active front stage and sub I run out of channels for a rear fill setup. I could run rear fill off of the last two channels but then i lose processing on my subs. Is it really all that important to have processing on the subs? And how important is rear fill. If i decide to go rear fill then the amps will change from one 6ch to 2 4 ch zapcos. With this scenario the rear fill would be a passively crossed over 2 way but would have time alignment capabilities and processing from the bit one. This signature intentionally left blank.

ALPINE408 Posted October 25, 2012 Report Posted October 25, 2012 you dont need rear fill at all its for people in the back seat Have you ever had your woofers blown?
KingPepsi Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 In the front how many speakers/tweets per side? It will be, unless i change my mind, 5.25" midbass/midrange, 1 Midrange, and 1 tweeter per door. That may change though to 1 8" midbass, 1 5.25 midrange, and 1 tweet per door.

How SREIOUS are you about your music ?? What "musical prefference" are you trying to get out of this vehicle ?? Also ... How much work do you plan to put into this vehicle to make a "Active 3 way setup" work correctly ?? Are you going to be competing ?? are you looking into stage and image ??

KingPepsi Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 Ok let me explain myself first. I listen too all types of music. Everything from jazz to acoustic to dubstep rap rock classic rock. Pretty much everything but country. I am looking for clarity, stage and image are important but not absolute. I will not be competing and as far as work goes I have the car in my shop all winter. I have every tool imagine able and I am not afraid of glassing a panel if need be. This build will be to impress me and no one else. I will do as much work as it takes to make me happy. As soon as my truck comes back from paint the car will be under the knife.

KingPepsi Posted October 25, 2012 Author Report Posted October 25, 2012 Let me also say this. Music is my release. I dont have the talent needed to produce it but I love every nuance of a great artist. I want to be able to sit in my car and feel as though I'm at a private venue This signature intentionally left blank.
