[QUOTE="Rzza, post: 8594746, member: 673624"] Today I received the package and tackled the job. It took over 3 hours for the first door and an hour for the second. There was lots of cutting and modifying. The 6x9 to 6.5 adapters I bought were actually 6x9 to 5.25 so I had to modify those and I decided to run the 3.5s in the door rather than the dash. I know the speaker positioning is poor but other than that I think I did better than a craigslist installer would have done and without a single scratch. I was able to keep the tweeter close to the woofer and the 3.5 is also within about a foot from them. It sounds far better than the alpine type R. I have not bridged them yet. I am currently running the rear 6x9s and the new front stage all at 70 watts per channel and tomorrow I will experiment with the fronts only at 200 watts each and maybe I will end up upgrading to a class a/b 175x4. I am still confused on crossovers here. I understand that I should keep the head unit crossovers off completely correct? Then the amp crossover for the components should also be off right, since I have the passive crossovers connected? I read in a review for my components that I should set the amp crossover at 100hz so that threw me off. So I can use the amps crossover on the rear 6x9s right? This is how I have it now. I guess I just don't know where to set my crossovers on the amp. BTW there is two crossover one for front and one for rear.
