sqsux Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 equipment like that is kind of expensive to just start buying and throwing together to learn from experience. at least do a little research before deciding you want to go active, if you haven't. Start out boxy, shape as you move along. Dc Audio Team Fur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fennygolf Posted October 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 if it has the freq responce to do it you could run 2, but I have 20wrms on my tweeters and it can make your ears ring I don't want to know what 600 sounds like im only going to be pushing 300 man not 600 and thats the smallest amp from RF i could find and all my amps are going to be RF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyeagain15 Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Research research research. I say try it, but only if you read as much info as possible so you dont cook your mids and highs in a week. I going to run active, but I'm still reading up on it My F-150 Build (So Far) 2 DC L3 10's Kenwood KDC-X794 (4) Selenium ST200 (Highs) (2) RE X8 (Mids) Sundown Sub/Mid/High Amps Shuriken Batteries Knu Wiring My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackedout Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 running a mono to all tweeters isn't something I would do, running 2 wouldn't be bad though tweeters should be ran stereo not mono You're the only one paying attention... LOL I don't know what he has hooked up to his tweeters, but if he's running mono to his tweeters it'll sound like shit. Music plays in stereo. Meaning, That which plays on the left side may not be the same that's playing on the right side. Steve knows this, If anything at all, the 600.1 is powering those 8s in the doors. You need at least 2 channels for tweeters in order to play left and right sides. Trunk Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackedout Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 so the tweeters could be running off the T1000.4s Possibly... But definitely not off a mono amp. Trunk Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEvil Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 no reason you cant run the tweeters off the mono amp, you just need two mono amps is all.

Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.

n8ball2013 Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 what ever happened to learning from experience? its not difficult to do and its not like he'll be playing with a bomb.... Because when it blows up we have to hear about it because he was too lazy to research what active means. Can't learn if you don't do it, good sir. Just saying. You can learn. You can read and research. might want to know your facts before u start saying stuff man i let me friend use my profile to post this i just got on to find out that hes been using it also Ive seen your posts. you aren't exactly the most knowledgeable. besides If I really want to I can check IPS and all that goodness. You stick to the "friend" story. And if it was for a "friend" why do you keep asking questions? Have him make his own name it takes two minutes. equipment like that is kind of expensive to just start buying and throwing together to learn from experience. at least do a little research before deciding you want to go active, if you haven't. oh my god someone gets it. Research research research. I say try it, but only if you read as much info as possible so you dont cook your mids and highs in a week. I going to run active, but I'm still reading up on it oh my god someone else gets it. not to mention a mono amp for tweeters is not the best idea. And the fact you mention no signal processors.
