Crossover Assistance

[unforsakin]

So, I am looking into upgrading my car's mids and highs, and I want to go from just 4 3 way speakers to 4 mids and 4 tweeters. For this, will I need 4 crossovers or can I just use one, also a link to a wiring diagram for the answer would be great! Thanks

You might be getting into active xovers there, which is kind of complicated. If you're looking to do something simple with 4 mids and 4 tweeters, I suggest just buying two component sets, and using the respectable passive xovers that come with it. If you want to hook up 4 mids and 4 tweeters that didn't come with passive xovers, you'll need to get an active xover which allows you to control the frequency slopes and points. If you don't have the right knowledge before using it, you risk ruining your equipment.

What speakers were you trying to run?

What speakers were you looking at and what amp?

if you had an electronic 2 way crossover,or if the 4 channel amp you have/or get,has a crossover that goes up to around 4000hz..

You can run it all off that...will be 2 way active. All depends on amp/speaker selection.
