Amp Settings

[LeV]

Hi Everyone,

I have a question about my Alpine MRV-F450 5-channel amp. I'm running 2 sets of drivers in the front doors, one set in the rear doors and a single 12" sub. Everything sounds good, but I'm wondering what my crossover points should be, and if the low-pass & high-pass filter should always be set 'on'.

I want to limit the front drivers from playing all the bass that is intended for the sub.

I've played the system in both 3 and 5 channel mode, and could not help but notice 3 channel mode in my Truck, sounded much better.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

In the front doors I have a pair of, 6 1/2" alpine SPR-176A mids (2 in each door) with one tweeter. In the rear is one set of SPR-176A's and a Alpine 12" SWR-1241D sub in a simple sealed enclosure.

Well considering the drivers will only play down to 40kHz at best I can't be far off. My problem will be configuring all the speakers to sound good together as a whole. The drivers try to play too much of the bass.
