FosgateLife Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 So latley ive been thinking about running active... But im confused on how to do it... Hoe am i suppose to hook up tweeters when there is no crossover? Wouldnt that open the door for low frequencies that will destroy your tweeters? And same wit mids? Can someone explain this to me? Ive looked online but nothing is helping.... 2007 Volvo S40 2.4i (no turbo )(Soon XS Power D2400) Stock battery for nowRockford Fosgate 4 gaugeAudioque 6.5" Mid Bass (front)Rockford Fosgate T1 Tweets (front)Rockford Fosgate T2 6.5" Mids (rear)Rockford Fosgats T600-4 (Mids and highs)Rockford Fosgate P3001Fi SSD 12" with PSI recone, building box<p>400 watts, 139.3 @ 42 hz , in the kick window open.

Noel989 Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 Does your amp or hu have the capabilities to run active? Of not then you'll need a crossover processor Build Log - http://www.stevemead...-cruiser-el-pt/
Thomas Posted March 4, 2013 Report Posted March 4, 2013 You still need a crossover or some type of processor, you just do the filtering before the signal is amplified.
FosgateLife Posted March 4, 2013 Author Report Posted March 4, 2013 I dont have an aftermarket HU. Im not experienced enough to fiberglass my entire dash just for a HU when my HU doesnt even clip at full volume. Sooo.. I have a factory amp ( the signal in for that uses fiberoptics.. Not touching that)... I used the factory amp out's to my Audiocontrol LC2i... Then from RCA's to the amp. Then from my amp to my doors... How would i go about running active or something? Im kinda bummed out right now because i think im doing everything wrong. My doors sound like shit and i have no idea why.. 2007 Volvo S40 2.4i (no turbo )(Soon XS Power D2400) Stock battery for nowRockford Fosgate 4 gaugeAudioque 6.5" Mid Bass (front)Rockford Fosgate T1 Tweets (front)Rockford Fosgate T2 6.5" Mids (rear)Rockford Fosgats T600-4 (Mids and highs)Rockford Fosgate P3001Fi SSD 12" with PSI recone, building box<p>400 watts, 139.3 @ 42 hz , in the kick window open.
