[QUOTE="jsampsell, post: 6840783, member: 621535"] I've done a lot of research on this topic and have learned a lot but I'm still a little unsure of how to set the front and rear crossover points. Sub is fairly straight forward. I've got an [URL="http://www.infinitysystems.com/car/products/product_detail.aspx?prod=REF5350A&cat=REF&ser=REF&Language=ENG&Country=US&Region=USA"]Infinity Reference 5350a[/URL] 5-channel amp that I am running a [URL="http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Products/CarAudioVideo/In-Dash/DVD-Receivers/AVH-P4200DVD"]Pioneer AVH-P4200DVD[/URL]. I've got the front, rear and sub signal wires hooked up to the amp and of course four speakers and the subs. The door speakers I have are [URL="http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_components.php?comp_id=116"]JL Audio TR570-CXi[/URL] 3-way full range speakers. Their frequency range is stated at 53Hz-22KHz according to JL's website. The front and rear amp inputs have a crossover range of 32Hz-320Hz. The amp also has crossover mode switches for both the front and rear inputs: LPF, Full Range and HPF. I'm currently running my sub input at 80Hz. I'd like to use the front speakers as a high stage and the rear speakers as a mid stage even though all four speakers are full range speakers. I may be viewed as stupid for wanting to do this but the thought had crossed my mind that if the amp gives you the ability to crossover the front and rear separately as this amp does, why can't you cross the fronts at a higher point and the rears at a lower point to accomplish this? Is this possible? Is this crazy? Should I not even bother with doing this? What recommendations do you folks have for me? I realize that the end result will be based on my personal listening tastes but there's got to be some norms. Maybe not. Either way I'm just looking for some advice. Thanks in advance, Jeremy [/QUOTE]
