Need New Hu/ Raw Drivers/ Amp Going Active!

[99GPGTX]

So im going to go active and i want it to be loud and clear

Soo

i need new...

HU

Processor if necessary

Mids

Tweeters

Amp----- Or i can keep my 100.4?

i put this in General bc i didnt want to make 3 different individual threads

If you want a signal processor you can run a RF360.2 They are capable of 2 way active plus subs. You can keep your 4 channel amp, just run your mids off 2 channels and your tweeters off the other 2. If it were me thats how I would do it, but you wont have any fade control.

I have been wanting to go 3-way active for a while, but I have no money right now for that. It will sound awesome.

so far what i want to do is get the D310 + H701

but the HU is soo muchh

then idk about raw drivers

if i buy the 9887 would i still need the processor? or can i just use the HU?

id like to keep a flip out but $$ kinda want to keep my flip out and put the 9887 in the lil storage thing in my dash butt that means i have to do fiberglassing...and i have no experience

im almost positive the X979 (kenwood) can go active. have you checked them out?? it has independent speaker leveling (right front, left front/ right rear/left rear) and sub. DSP, DTA, Easy mode & Pro Mode, list goes on and on. not sure if you are set on the 9887 or whatever. might be worth checking into.

i have the specs if you are interested in seeing more.
