[QUOTE="zako, post: 8053814, member: 629735"] If you want to "audiophile" type of sound without erasing rear speakers, consider a DSP with surround sound processor such as JBL MS-8 or Alpine H800. These can take a 2-channel stereo signal and convert into a true 5.1 signal. Another option is to consider deleting the rear speakers. There are a lot of people who feel satisfied with 3-way front + subwoofers. Anyways, I don't fully understand the question. What is is that you're worried about? That 360.3 has only 8 (6, whatever?) channels? For a 3-way active front stage + sub, 8 channels of control is enough. Trying to sacrifice the 3-way active just so you can run rear deck speakers does not seem a fair trade off. However, if you want to do this, then you can use an amplifier's built in crossover to manage the front mid-range and midbass. A 3.5 probably plays down to 200-300Hz. A lot of amplifiers have HP/LP filters for that range. In this setup, the front 3.5 and 6x9 will apprear as a single channel to the 360.3 [/QUOTE]
