[QUOTE="tracyrick, post: 2503472, member: 570552"] Installed my MB Quart QSC216 and JL 12W6v2 and both sound amazing. Looking for advice on crossover points and frequencies. Most common appears to be 80Hz and -12db slope, so I'm starting with that and it sounds good so far. I listen to metal and prog rock. If I go down to 63hz (my next lower option available on my Alpine HU), would this make any sense? Why would I want my front speakers to handle that much more low frequencies (17hz more) and my sub handle less? Curious because I've seen some people recommending 63hz. Also, would it make any sense to go higher than 80hz? Yeah, I will spend lots of time listening and adjusting myself, but looking for some OP thoughts on this also. [/QUOTE]
