[QUOTE="koakine88, post: 8693688, member: 678733"] Yeah, I should definitely look into the Fix86 more. I see that it can network on bluetooth with their amps for more control. Unfortunately, I plan on installing just one subwoofer and at most that I've been looking at has been 400W RMS (which would fall right within the range I have with bridging). My subwoofer placement is behind the rear seats in a small area, so I'm limited on how crazy of a subwoofer system I can even go with. Yeah, just letting the crossovers sit and collect dust seems like a bit of a shame, but with the tuneability of a DSP, why even use them? Am I missing anything else about the difference in using the component crossover versus controlling the active setup through the DSP? What do you mean by "loud as hell on active". Will the trouble of having tweeters on their own channel not be worth it? *My biggest lack of knowledge is definitely in what the difference would be in the active vs out of box crossover setup. My biggest excitement, despite the AudioControl DSP AMP being expensive, is that it's all just one big unit for a cleaner install, and the options and control it gives seems to be pretty incredible.
