[QUOTE="Buck, post: 8759314, member: 591582"] This looks correct. Iirc most bridging that I’ve seen happens in the two outside speaker outputs, where you leave the middle two disconnected. You can usually overpower door speakers, depending how you your high pass is setup, because music is so in and out. The full power is rarely used, but be careful with how much bass or midbass you run, at least at first. I had my doors crossed over kind of high, because I had 150w components and a very underrated 200w per door. I usually crossed at 80-100 hz, and man, they were so loud. Just be careful, take your time to listen to the power properly. Maybe set your HPF kinda higher and then slowly let it down, over time, and you’ll notice if the speakers are distorting or not sounding right. Adjustable db/octave slopes can really help have some bass lower in the doors, without it overpowering the coil, if you had that option, like 18db/octave or 12/dB octave, if you’re braver lol. I’ve fried some doors speakers with too low of crossovers haha. They don’t move enough to flow out the heat like a sub does, so just be mindful. [/QUOTE]
