Mikey Bates Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Ive been in the process of doing a build for a friend. And I decided to run an active front stage. I dont know if its worth spending the 400 for a 360.3 ( well i know its worth it lol but tryin to find cheaper solutions ) or building / buyers crossovers. Essentiall i need one high pass for the tweets, do they make/buildable ones where you can select the DB/oct like -6-12db blah blah blah. and adjustable freq. and the other i need is band pass. also would like to be able to select the db/oct and have adj freq... thoughts? where what how just buy the 360.3 lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyblack76 Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Active is controlable. a passive build cross over, is just that. Passive. Active is an entire new beast...

Chris Hammer Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I run active, my amp has crossovers that let me hpf/lpf from 20-4khz on all four channels. I run mids on rear channels, tweets on front, Mids crossed 60hz-3.5khz 12db slope, tweets pick up at 3.5khz and up. What amplifier is he using for his front stage? Hit me up with some pm's since I wont be following this and I will help as much as I can and much faster. Other options would be 80prs or 360.3 MY BUILD *****http://tinyurl.com/gmcbuild***** Vehicles 2005 GMC Canyon CB1000r - Currently where any future funds are going.

Mikey Bates Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Radio already installed so 80prs is out. Mids and Highs amps havent been bought. currently have a RF punch 50.4. and will run that for a while. and i dont want to build a passive crossover. i want a well yeah lol a passive crossover, but adjustable. and the crossover wont split the amps channel into tweeter and woofer, itll be fore one ( so 4 crossovers for from stage ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 I have a Dd x1. Around $200 and will do bandpass crossovers at a high enough frequency to be suitable for a good active setup (something that the cheaper $50 crossovers lack) ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
