    ARC audio 6.2 componenets ( Bi-Ampable passive crossovers )

    Ok, I was looking at ARC audio components when I saw the 6.2 components with bi-ampable crossovers. I've never seen these style crossovers. I was wondering if they produce exceptional results compared to regular passive crossovers? I would think not or these would be a much more popular...

    Please explain required cubic feet of sealed enclosure!

    Ok, I appreciate feedback!! What would you suggest? If I am going with single sub setup and I can meet minimum sealed requirement of .8 cubic feet for Kicker, should I choose the Kicker CVX? I can actually get close to 1.0 cubic foot of space for the CVX. Would the CVX outperform a single Alpine...

    Please explain required cubic feet of sealed enclosure!

    Ok, so I appreciate the feedback!! Now that you both have brought me a up a notch in knowledge, let me ask you one more question. If I am going with a single sub set up and I can meet the minimum sealed requirement of .8 cubic feet for the kicker, should I choose the kicker CVX? I can actually...

    Please explain required cubic feet of sealed enclosure!

    There is more to it than that. There is a detailed explanation for the difference of required space for optimum performance. If they were the same exact mechanical structure than they would require the same habitat to perform equal. The Kicker CVX must have more movement or longer stroke? I'm...

    Please explain required cubic feet of sealed enclosure!

    Ok, so I have limited space for subs in crew cab truck. Only option I have is downfire box under rear seat. I have a set of kicker CVX 10's. Why does kicker require so much more sealed cubic feet volume than Alpine or JL audio?? JL and Alpine suggest around .66 cubic feet of sealed volume per...

    what sub setup??

    crew cab Silverado 1500. I have passengers so it will have to be a downfire box under rear seat. Which limits space for sub drastically. One thing I don't understand is that JL audio, and Alpine don't require or recommend near the amount of sealed cubic feet volume as kicker??

    what sub setup??

    Ok, currently I have one kicker CVR 10" sub in my crew cab truck. It is in a downfire enclosure. I recently upgraded my mids and highs and the sub is now lacking. It doesn't exist in the same presence as it did before. I need a little more bass to compensate for louder mids and highs. This is...

    components with equal sound distribution. Read This!!

    Ok, so the impedance combined. Which is the impedance the amp will recognize? I thought the woofer and tweeter had to both be 2 ohm? Are you saying the passive crossover determines what impedance is drawn from the amp and distributes accordingly? I know I just asked 3 different questions. lol I...

    components with equal sound distribution. Read This!!

    Ok, I'm not sure what you mean by "differences in impedance between woofer and tweeter". They are both 2 ohm, correct??

    components with equal sound distribution. Read This!!

    Ok, so I recently blew my tweeters to my JBL P660c components. I blew my tweets but my woofers are fine. Now, this could possibly be my fault(wouldn't surprise me). I was using the factory internal crossovers from the Bose system that was previously in my truck. Maybe it was allowing some lower...

    What amp to chose?

    Ok, so i'm in the market to buy an amp for my mids and highs. I'm running a set of components in the front and midrange speaker in the rear. I already have a separate amp for my sub. I'm looking for an educated opinion on what would be a good quality amp for my speakers. I would like to go with...
