[QUOTE="Sarthos, post: 5936429, member: 610335"] Okay, my speakers have the 18 dB/octave crossovers for the mids and tweets that come with them and 24 dB/octave for the fronts. I'm not sure how much I could gain by adding in another crossover of if I'd need to amp the mids and tweets separately which would require more channels, etc. I know. I was agreeing with you about that line of units. Okay, I'll add that one to my list of units I'm looking at. True. But when it comes down to it I think JVC is kind of a cheaper brand and probably not the same quality. [q]they usually are nice units, they are just prone to the pico fuse problem.[/q] [q]most times the it is caused by hotswapping the rca lines which is why the problem is reported a lot when people are buying/selling used units. once the pico fuse is blown you have to ground the rca inputs to the hu to eliminate the alt buzz.[/q] Hotswapping? Like taking the RCAs out while the unit is running? And if the RCAs are grounded to the head units that would take care of it? Also is this just specific units or all of them in general? Wouldn't that setup sound weaker? And how would the results be better? Yah, I like overkill [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG]. But the rear speakers sound really nice if I'm like listening to music from the back seat or even from the front seat. And once summer starts I intend on fine tuning the different pairs of speakers in the rear separately with the extra channels on my DQS and modifying the boxes a little bit. Amps for the subs are all on switches so I can just run 10s or 12s daily, 10s for the better SQ or 12s for the better SPL, and I can blast all 5 if I just wanna show off. That's why I have mixed subs, so I have the different choices. And thanks, you've been a really big help [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
