2/3/4 way crossover / tweets / mids / adire ?

[theCybe 5,000+ posts]

Alpine CDA-9830; Does time alignment.

eDesign NINe.4; Four channels

Adire SF-7; Lost the specs

[need tweeters / tiny horns]

[maybe need midrange]

[need active crossover]

Any recommendations?

Should I just use the processing in the HU and 9.4?

- bandpass the midbass,

- [maybe] bandpass the midrange,

- highpass the tweets.

** I don't know what the SF-7's will play up to, because Adire took down the page. And didn't reply to the mail I sent two weeks ago. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif Any info on that would be great; I bought them as a midbass.

I took a long look at the dash yesterday; I think I may be able to put some minibodies in the stock tweet locations. I'll snap a picture tonight.

Some processing opinions?

Unless your stock tweeter location is underneath the dash......I doubt that'll work.

What all processing does your HU have in terms of xovers?

Also, with a single 4 channel amplifier you don't have enough channels of amplification to do a 3-way active frontstage. You could either build a passive for the midrange/tweeter and run each pair off of a single channel, or purchase a 4" component set and them on the front two channels. Then actively bandpass the midbass drivers on the rear two channels.

Or you could simply go for a 2-way frontstage assuming those Adire mids play high enough.

Also, what's your budget?

From the digging I've done (search function FTW!), they should be good up to atleast 1.8khz-2khz. Possibly higher, depending on some things.

I'd look for a tweeter that's good down to atleast 2khz probably, just to be safe (assuming you are going 2-way).

The Dayton RS tweeter would be great for you. Good down to ~1.6khz.

Here are the locations; Look about an inch below the rearview mirror, in the picture.

I think I could wedge some minibodies in without much issue.

If the SF-7 will play to 1.8k, and horns will come down that low; Maybe I could get away with a 2-way afterall.

Budget for processing is up to $200.

Adire's webpage, when it was up, said they can play up to 3-4kHz with ease.

Thanks guys //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I checked archive.org for a snapshot of the page but it wasn't up long enough to be captured.

You do not want horns pointed directly at your head. That is just simply a bad location for them all the way around. I could go on for a couple paragraphs explaining why.....but I don't feel like it right now //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif Just know that that's not a good location.

You should be able to pick up decent processors for close to that.

Look into the Coustic XM6 for an active xover.

Horns optimally should be installed under the dash...

Thanks for the tip, squeak. I did some homework, and ordered 'em up.

Still need tweets that'll get low; Bummer about the horns.

Wish I would've dropped the extra hundred for a nicer headunit.

after reading all this, i still don't know what you are getting and needing? horns, sweets and mids? an a xover?
