[QUOTE="Jazz, post: 4172019, member: 580828"] I am pretty new at this and it seems that i am a little over my head at this point. I think that through this thread, i have pretty much grasped the concept of an active system versus a passive system and a 2 Way System versus a 3 Way System. I believe that i now understand enough to proceed with my build. I do not want components , nor coaxials with outboard crossovers. Therefore i will install 3 pairs of coaxials, 2 dash, 2 door and 2 rear. I will also have a Sub. I will set the switch at the bottom of my HU unit to " 2 Way". I will use the HU built in X overs. The Front Speaker Channel will be hooked up to a 4 channel amp. I will hook up the 2 dash speakers and the 2 door speakers to this amp. I will set the amp X over to Flat becuase i will use the one in the HU. I will then set the Front Speaker Channel (HIGH) X Over to the Dash/Door speaker specifications. The Rear Speaker Channel will be hooked up directly to the 2 rear speakers. I will set the Rear Speaker Channel (MID) X Over to the Rear speaker specifications. The Subwoofer Channel will be hooked up to a 2 channel amp that will be bridged. I will set the amp xover to flat. I will use the HU SUB (LOW) xover to the subwoofers specifications. Please tell me that i got this 100% right?? [/QUOTE]
