I'm looking into this but not sure if my headunit will work.
it's an alpine 7894. Looking at the manual it says it has a built in crossover
HPF (Setting the High Pass Filter):
FLAT (OFF) ↔ 80Hz ↔ 120Hz ↔160Hz
Outputs all frequencies higher than that selected
according to your preference
and
LPF(Setting the Low Pass Filter):
FLAT (OFF) ↔ 80Hz ↔ 120Hz ↔160Hz
Outputs all frequencies lower than that selected
according to your preference.
(Only available when using the subwoofer output from
this unit.)
Since I am not running a sub that would make the LPF option not applicable.
So, that leaves me with only HPF. But I have a 4 channel amp and would need seperate settings for the front two and rear two, right????
Also, I though I read somewhere (maybe earlier in this thread) where the settings were changed in db's? but mine are settings for Hz????
I'm assuming my Alpine just won't do it. Anyone know for sure?
Here's alink to their manual.

No, neither one.

I would say a capable HU and a 4 channel amp. Also some mids and tweets without the crossover. That's pretty much it. There are some other alternatives, but I feel this is the easiest way.
Not sure if there is a way with either of those. I believe you can hook an external processor up to the Alpine screens.
Then just get an external crossover or an amp that has a built in crossover that's flexible enough to hit your crossover points.

Elemental Designs 11kv.2

Optima Yellow and Red Top

basic 3-way setup:
highpass tweets
bandpass mids
low pass subs
4-way (3-way fronts):
highpass tweets
bandpass mids
bandpass midbass
low pass subs
first thing i did when i started learning of this site was buy and alpine 9835 with the crossovers built in the hu and got rid of my passive crossovers. it is nice and one of the reason why i wouldn't buy and dvd unit. only units i would want cost over 2 grand! its very easy to do with and external crossover but it is really nice when the crossover is built into the HU.
