hayden b Posted August 17, 2024 Report Posted August 17, 2024 what is the best amplifier for door speakers getting prv 6MR500 NDY they are 250watts rms Quote
Joe X Posted August 18, 2024 Report Posted August 18, 2024 (edited) Seem a bit concerning to me that those will play midbass pretty poorly. You can see that at 100 Hz these are already about 4dB below baseline. Also note that these are 8 ohm parts most car amps are optimized for 4-2 ohm. As for the amp you should be more specific, any 500-600W rms @8 ohm full range stereo amp that has a high pass filter should work BUT not sure what you mean by best, you want class ab, d, small, SQ?

SQ and i have mid bass speakers in a stunt wall type deal above by back seats Quote
Joe X Posted August 19, 2024 Report Posted August 19, 2024 I would use the same brand of amplifier brand you are going to use for your midbass drivers, use a DSP to match time alignment if the location of the drivers is going to be very different as the midbass drivers, also the same goes for the tweeters, same brand of amp. Just bear in mind that the drivers are 8 ohm, maybe you want two sets to lower impedance to 4 ohm per side. As for the drivers themselves, I don't know that PRV build sound quality drivers such as morel and the like, to drive would be SPL drivers to SQ results, if I understand right you need to drive them in their linear region both frequency and amplitude, that would probably be 250-2KHz and 75% of their rated power, maybe you should talk to an SQ specialist. In any case you want to get a high quality DSP, also amp selection involves auditioning, class d amps for mids and highs can be noisy, I would feel safer using class AB for full range amps, at least if you are picking something inexpensive.
