excelon72 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Here is my question. I have a Zapco 650.6 currently running the 6 3/4 woofers and 1" tweeters through a 2 way crossover. I would really like to get the Pioneer PRS midranges in , in order to get the imaging done but do not yet have the Audiocontrol DQXS in. Is it safe for me to run the Pioneer midranges with 50 watts from the zapco with only using the on amp settings? Also would a D'Amore crossover device help me not blow the expensive miranges? I am not read to put in the Audiocontrol DQXS to act as the electronic crossover as its pretty complicated and im worried about ruining the drivability of the sound system that i have going right now.

excelon72 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I am running a Kenwood excelon 890hd through an Audiocontrol matrix back to the zapco 6 channel 50x6. The tweeter and miss are right now running off passive crossovers. The pioneer midranges 2 5/8" have the cups. The Audiocontrol DQXS is very complicated and I don't have that kind of time right now. Would it be np best to get an inexpensive NOT cheap set of 3 way passive crossovers while I wait to have the time to do the DQXS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Lightning Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Dude ... I just googled your headunit. Why do you think you need anything (additional processing) to go with this headunit ??? That is a stand alone headunit with all the features needed for your setup with out external processing ... No wonder you're having problems ... I'm not a fan of 6 channels but with what you have, All you need is your headunit and your amplifier ... Take out all of that AudioControl stuff (just to be clear, I have no problems with AudioControl ... just not needed here) out of your system and retset everything up and retune ... Should see a MAJOR improvement !!! Hope this helps ... Kenwood / HELIX / Linear Power (For The Love Of Music) / Brutal Sounds / OverKill Electric Co Questions About Sound Quality ?? Try Here ...
