So I'm finally getting around to trying a set of the 2008 model Boston PRO60 SE 6.5" components. I'll be getting them installed tomorrow(2/18), and wanted to know opinions on the best way to run them from people who have experience with them.
I've got an amp that I can bridge 4 channels to put out about 220w rms a side, so I think I'm pretty good on power for them. I've been running Rainbow mids and tweets in a 2 way active setup for about a year and a half now, and while I really like the sound, I've always wondered about the PRO60 components....especially since I mostly listen to rock/hard rock.
I've enjoyed the Rainbows being run active, but I've also had a couple sets of tweets go out since I've been doing the active thing with them, so I'm kinda leaning towards either using the passive crossovers for the PRO60's, or using the passive crossovers and bi-amping them. I'm not into competing at all, I just like a loud and clear sound, and I don't want to have to worry about a mid or a tweet going out on me from the PRO60 set.
Any opinions?
