WhiteMan_FTS Posted May 20, 2017 Author Report Posted May 20, 2017 Thanks for all the info guys. I just found out my head unit has 2.5v pre outs. jk13 , good to know!
WhiteMan_FTS Posted May 20, 2017 Author Report Posted May 20, 2017 Would you guys say 50rms per tweeter is enough to match with the 150rms mids? im looking at getting 4 of these cadence q75T tweeters. Any opinions on these? and someone earlier said instead of using crossovers I could just adjust the lpf/hpf on the amp. Would that work fine? edit: https://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_122053_Cadence-Q75T-ZRS75T.html
WhiteMan_FTS Posted May 20, 2017 Author Report Posted May 20, 2017 Can I use these crossovers for those q45t tweeters? http://www.down4soundshop.com/ft1-tweeter-crossover/ sorry for the triple post I can't figure out how to edit my post again. Definitely a forum noob haha
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted May 20, 2017 Report Posted May 20, 2017 The specs on sonic says that they have a built in crossover so there is probably a capacitor that comes with them or is inside them. No external crossover needed so you could run them in parallel with your midst if you wanted to. If you put a clean 50wrms on each one and you should be fine. I would put them on their own 4 channel amp and keep the gain as low as possible. Ideally your gains should be set with a DD-1 to prevent distortion and clipping. Where are you located? Maybe someone could help you out. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon)

It'll probably be worth it to have them set everything properly vs me just ear-balling it.
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted May 20, 2017 Report Posted May 20, 2017 You can set it by ear, but then if you bang on it you are taking a chance. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon)
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted May 20, 2017 Report Posted May 20, 2017 If you put them on a separate amp, having the gain set really low will probably be just right anyway. 91 C350 Centurion conversion ( Four Door One Ton Bronco) 250A Alternator (Second Alternator Coming Soon) G65 AGM Up Front / Two G31 AGM in Back Pioneer 80PRS CT Sounds AT125.2 / CT Sounds 6.5 Strato Pro component Front Stage CT Sounds AT125.2 / Lanzar Pro 8" coax w/compression horn tweeter Rear Fill FSD 5000D 1/2 ohm (SoundQubed 7k Coming Soon) Two HDS315 Four Qubes Each 34hz (Two HDC3.118 and New Box Coming Soon)
WhiteMan_FTS Posted May 21, 2017 Author Report Posted May 21, 2017 That's exactly what I'll do then. Just set them real low. Thank you for your advice ShadeTree
