jonnylowkon Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 So I finally got up enough money for 2 sets of SD sa 6.5's for my 100.4d . So should I just wire them up using the supplied crossovers using all four channels Or Use the crossover in the amp and use channels 1-2 for the 4 tweets And channels 3-4 for the 4 mid ranges? Would there be a noticeable gains by dropping down to 2 ohms and getting 160 per channel and being able to control the tweets level and the mids level separately ?? Ill have to check and see what the mids and tweets actucally ohm out to be sure ..

jonnylowkon Posted May 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 Bump I measured the mid @ 3.1ohms And the tweet @ 3.2 ohms So the amp will see 1.5 ohm per channel is that right an would that be too low ?

Tebo Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I would give the cross over a try before you go active. See how it sounds if you don't like it you can switch to active later Quote 04 dodge dakota ext cab 4x4 excessive amperage 300 amp alt with MONSTER stud =)sundown z v3 15 in a 4th order on aq2200sundown 100.4 2 way active...2 Prv audio 6mb200 & 2 re XXX tweetersdeka intimidatorkenwood x396big 3 1/0 knu wire back to deka intimidator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyG2 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 I'd imagine that resistance will be fine, sundown amps are known for people who know what they're doing being able to run super low resistances. I don't think that running a 25% lower resistance will be too low. But, I agree that you should try the passive crossovers first at least until you can get your hands on an CC1 and DD1 to make sure your crossover is right and they're not getting an clipped signal.

BobbyG2 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 BTW I'm going to be doing something very similar,except I'm doing it active off my SAX125.4, so let me know how it sounds I'm very interested in the results.

ToNasty Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 use the crossovers, I love my sundown comps. I thought about running active but theres no point, they sound amazing Quote ***Super Sellers List***http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnylowkon Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Kewl! I wasn't sure if they would need the extra power or not... I have a dd-1 good protection for my investment! I'm just waiting for my box from Dave the box guy but damn its goin on 8 weeks .....
