[QUOTE="elpruss, post: 8549786, member: 672326"] I have 04 Nissan Titan Crew Cab, current system is a Pioneer P3300bt with factory Rockford Fosgate amp and speakers. I just purchased and will be installing the following: 2 sets of JL C2-650 components (front & rear) 1 - JL 10W0v3 sub in a custom enclosure (under the rear seat) 1 - Zapco ST-5X-II (5 channel amp) I'm considering upgrading my HU to the Pioneer AVH-4200NEX or another model with 3 way active crossover. My question is this... should I wire my speakers in a 3way active setup? The 4 tweeters wired parallel to the front channels for the highs (2 tweeters to each front channel right and left). The 4 - 6.5's wired parallel to the rear channel for mids (2 - 6.5 to each rear channel right and left). The single Sub to the 5th channel. OR... would I be better off wiring each component set (tweeter & 6.5") to each of the 4 channels and use the included JL passive crossovers? If I use my current HU I will use the X-overs built into the amp, if I upgrade to a HU with 3 way active X-over, I'll set the amp to full and use the HU X-over. [/QUOTE]
