Is a LPF on mids needed?

Recommended Posts

So is my only choice spending $300+ on an amp that has a 4khz LPF?

Edit: ninja'd ^

Ok

They're on Ebay for 260-270...probably find em for less but I wasn't saying get that exact amp...I was saying to look for amps with a similar feature and it going to be hard to find a $100-200 amp with LPF and HPF and extended frequency ranges that puts out the power you need for those PWX mids and Tweets.

EDIT FOUND it for 240$ on ebay. Never have had experience with them myself. Read around a little and people seemed to like them.. CEA2006 if that means anything.

Not trying to knock it down but I thought that class D wasn't good for mids/highs. Still going to look into it though. Thanks for the suggestion

^^^^ DSP = digital sound processor i.e alpine 701 or the 800 or an audison bit one or a JBL MS-8 arc audio ps8 and so on

you can also buy some amps like zappco with DSP's built in

most DSP can do it all x over points ANYWHERE you want them eq's phase Time alainment so on

Have you ever had your woofers blown?

Thanks. Imma look into one of the ones you listed above. I've been kinda looking at options and am wanting to do simple 2 way active setup. I don't want to fiberglass my doors or kicks or anything for 3 way. Sorry OP for the thread jack.

I know some people dont like them, but i have never had a problem w/ my FMODS.. They do have a 3500LP model that would work and be cost effective for you.

What are FMODS?

I just realized that a DSP is going to be way out of my budget. The amplifier I am looking at has a HPF that will work for the tweets. Probably going to have to look into LPF passive crossover that is 4khz. When you look at the impedance of the crossover should it match the driver? If I use a 8 ohm crossover and a 8 ohm driver would make it so it is 4 ohm at the amp or would it be eight?
