[QUOTE="alteraudiousa, post: 2431775, member: 564560"] ok first off which HU do you have? You will not need to use the rear RCA outputs if not using rears. What you will need to do is run the sub amp off the sub RCA and the rest of the amp off the front RCA(which should play full-range so messing with the HU's HPF or LPF). Then if i get your equipment right, you'll run from the HU to the Kicker 30EQ and then to the 3way electrical crossover. From the crossover you should have a lows/mid/high outputs. The lows will need to play something like 80-200hz for the 8in speakers, the mids need to play around 315hz up to 2.5khz, and the highs will play the tweets at 3khz and higher. Alot of the frequencies will be determined by the crossover slopes that the crossover gives you and what you think sounds good. But there is no reason to give up the 6.5in speaker, it just is harder to install but since it won't be playing midbass you can install it in a small kick pod. Frequencies shouldn't overlap too much if at all though. [/QUOTE]
