ok guys a local shop salen these Selenium 6W4P for 18 bucks brand new and the 8inch ones 22 bucks each are these worth puting in. i was thinking 4 of the 6inchs and 4 of the the 8inchs for the rear deck and if i do get wat would i run on the amp full/low/high confused on that thanks

well, parts express sells those for the 6 inch woofers for 32 bucks, so you are getting a deal, i woulnd't mix the 6 inchs woofers with the 8 inchs, not worth it imo, and at a rated 100rms each set your low pass, to around 100 hertz

cool man thanks for the advise on them anyone know a good crossover i can use with them ?

I use both the 6 and the 8 in my setup, and with the right amount of processing they do very well. I would strongly suggest running them in an active processing setup.

to be honest with you i dont know the difference with active and "passive" if that what regular crossover called can you explain so i get better understanding of the active thanks

Active means that you are actively controlling each driver typically with a digital EQ of some sort. Passive means that you will use a preset crossover device. Like the ones that come in a 2way component set.

From my experience, a passive xover really limits you in setting up these drivers successfully. They are pretty efficient in certain bands and can get out of control very easily. This is why you will hear people say they sound like crap just like all other pro drivers, when in fact they have just been set up wrong
