[QUOTE="Cosmic Charlie, post: 334305, member: 547504"] Well, I like the sound that I'm getting now Sq wise and spl wise w/ the kappas hooked up to the USX but, everyone on this site rave about comps, and since I'm not using the HU internal amp, I was thinking about hooking the kappas to it, and buying a set of decent comps to see what all the hype was about. I thought that if I put a switch on my remote wire I could run kappas alone off the HU, or the comps alone off the USX, or both at the same time. I don't know if I would get cancelation by running both at once but I thought it might sound good. I have a 1988 Chevy G-20 mark 3 van (somewhat custom) I was going to mount the comps up front either in the doors or maybe the trim peice that goes over the doghouse (engine cover). I listen to a variety of music from Grateful Dead to Rage against the machine to van morrison to you name it, mostly rock or classic rock. My low frequency is taken care of with a USX-2100 bridged @ 300wrms pushing a 12" kappa perfect. I just feel that I'm wasting the cda-9813 internal amps. I am a little concerned that the HU amps might clip before I get full power out of my external amps, but I should be able to compensate for that with gain adjustment. Sorry for being so long winded but I would like some input from the experts here on this site. Thanks again CC [/QUOTE]
