How much power are you running to them. I pan on biamping them at 85x2 per speaker //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/uhoh.gif.c07307dd22ee7e63e22fc8e9c614d1fd.gif Thoughts?
I edited my post because I'm a complete noob and had the impression that if I used my 4 ch and put two channels on each speaker I would push 170 watts (85 x 2) of total power. I know have learned that this is not the case. And have also determined that the actual power at 3 ohms would be 113 watts rms:crazy:u need a 4 channel amp, i'm not sure if you mean you're giving each side 85x2 or you're using an 85x2 bridged to give each speaker 170rms
From what I've read, a properly dampened/deadened and sealed door it the best way to improve the midbass response. If you don't have any material in there so far check this site out for the best options out there: http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/index.shtmlI am pushing approx 225 per side and mine seem to lacking in the midbass area. Gonna try to see if matting the doors is gonna help any. I might try bi-amping them to see if it will make any changes to them. Suggestions??
Not to nit pick on the power, but that's 230-240 at 3 ohms correct? Wouldn't 400x2 @ 4 ohms be equivalent to roughly 533 @ 3 ohms!!! Which is more than 4 times the rated power of the speaker? Not saying that's bad, but I'm tring to see how much power (applied intelligently of course) these babies need to reach their potential.Yeah i'm pushing my pro60s with a xenon200.2 and gettin about 230-240 per side and they were lackin a lil midbass at first. Dampened my door thoroughly and they stand out quite a bit more though they could still use some more power. Wish i could find an eclipse 34230 so i could really make em shine or somethin around the 400x2 at 4 ohm level.
