757lmj Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 I have 3 pairs of infinity reference 6.5s, one pair is in the doors running off of my headunit. In have 0 gauge throughout for my sub system, a yellowtop in the front and back, grounds/amp/remote wire in back..... Is there an easy way to put my 4 channel in this setup for the extra 6.5s? (Same remote wire to each) or something basic like that
Guest Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 just add the four channel and wire it to the battery in the back I dont see how it can get any easier than that don't daisy change the power from your sub amp to your 4channel if thats how easy you are trying to be you can do that with your remote though but it is sloppy
757lmj Posted June 23, 2015 Author Report Posted June 23, 2015 Should I have the 4 channel or sub amp 1st in the remote wire line. Will having the sub amp first send lower frequencies to the 4 ch.?
reedal Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Your head unit outputs a constant 12v. The amount of current it puts out depends on how much is required by the amp(s). They need a certain amount of current to turn on. So find out how much they need (amp owners manuals), and how much total current your head unit can output on the remote wire (owners manual). If the amount required exceeds the amount supplied, then you need to look into a separate 12v switched source (they make fuses with remote leads on them for this). Or one of CE auto electrics remote turn on relays. But you should be fine with just two amps on it. As for which one is first in the series, whichever one you want.

Knew there had to be something. Also, since this is for my entire 4 channel setup, will a box with .16 to .25 ft^3 work for these 6.5s? infinity reference. I don't want to make door panels yet n all that

I don't want to make door panels yet n all that I'm not very knowledgable on enclosures for the most part, just enough to get me by. Try making another thread in the enclosures section of the forum, listing how many, what specs for them, and the amount of power your amplifier puts out at each ohm load. That should get you started, and someone with the knowledge should be able to offer a hand.

Order doesn't matter? sub to mid or visa versa
reedal Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 No. You only want low frequencies to the sub amp and mid & high frequencies to your 4 channel. What head unit do you have? How many RCA outputs are on it?
