[QUOTE="got-one-eight, post: 6217870, member: 610731"] I have decided to remove the bi-amp setup I have and go active with my Morel Elate 6 2W. I am doing this for hopefully more tune ability and better time alignment. This will be my first active setup so I'm not sure where to start. I have an Alpine 9887 and I know I need to flip the switch to 3-way? My question is what is the default head units cut off freq when I flip the switch. I don't want 80hz hitting my tweets of course. Which leads me to my next question.. where should I start on my cutoffs. I know the passive X-over has a 12db slope but not sure what the cutoffs are. I wasnt sure if I should start at 4k hpf on the tweet then how does it work to set the mid up so its playing 80hz-4khz with a 12db slope. Or should I start at 18 to be safe? Also the Front output should be for the tweets and rear should be for the mids correct? I will be running a JL 450/4 to them. 150x2 to the mids and 75x2 to the tweets. Thx for any advice! [/QUOTE]
