Hello everyone ive been out of car audio awhile and need help.
Vehicle 2003 Silverado Crew cab 4 door.
I was given as a gift a new kenwood 210u that has only one set of pre outs it has the ability to run 85 hz/120hz/160 hz or through also has rev phase (180) or norm (0)
heres my dilemma i plan to use component 6 1/2s in all 4 doors but currently have 6 1/2 coaxials.
I am powering these with a Zapco 350.2
For subs I have 2 12"Directed sx12d4s
i am powering these with a Directed D1200
Since theres only one preout i currently have it split via a rca y splitter creating 2.
oh btw I am NOT using any Line level speaker connections strictly rcas via the 1 (now2 via splitter) preout.
Are my door speakers getting mutilated by bass frequencies? It seems when I do turn the bass down via the head unit to accomodate the door speakers from getting mutilated the bass gets turned down as well. Seems as whatever i do via the head unit affects both amplifiers.
How can i tune both amps individually to accomodate both the door speakers and the subs? and still have full functionality of fine tuning from the head unit?
Someone please help as i have already burn 1 set of doors and cant afford to keep going at this pace. Thanks in advance.
