Help - US Acoustics USX-4065 with Infinity Comps

[james33440 10+ year member]

I am using a US Acoustics USX-4065. I have the gain about 1/4 the way up and X-overed @ 60Hz on a set of Infinity Reference 505cs components. The midbass is alright but I was wanting more. I am just wanting to get the most from this setup as possible without adding midbass drivers. I will eventually though. Anyway, I currently have the amp driven @ 4-ohms to the X-overs and Components (+ to + and - to -). Should I wire them in parrallel or whatever to get more out the amp? I need some suggestions.

If you want more power, you'll need to upgrade. Wiring the components in parallel is not the best idea.

Well, could I keep the Infinity 505cs components and use the other 2 channels from the USX-4065 to push a set of midbass drivers? For instance a set of Peerless CSX drivers? Thanks.

Yep....I have a set of those Peerless'.....very nice, especially for the price. But remember they're 8 ohms, so they'll only get around 30/40 watts.....

Well, what other midbass drivers would you recommend?
