DD-1 and Pioneer DEH-80PRS

[t-scene 10+ year member]

I just installed my 80prs and was wondering if I should dd1 my amps with active cross over network on or off?

The system will be ran full active after everything is setup.

I noticed it has preset crossover points would that interfere with the dd1 or should I just flip the switch and set the gain like a normal head unit

His predicament is that the you cannot run the high and mid channels wide open in network mode.

You don't really have a choice but to set it in standard if you want to see what the tweeter channels can do. But I'd set the mid and sub channels in network. The tweeters will be attenuated much lower at the head unit if the amp channels are set to do maximum undistorted power. Basically, the tweeter channels have zero chance of distorting at the head unit if you're using a four channel with equal power at all channels.

I'm running 4 ohm tweeters and 8 ohm mids is the only thing I see messing with it. Since the amp should be putting out more power to tweeters.
