[QUOTE="sdimeconcept, post: 2474021, member: 571897"] Right now the 6.5's are running off the h/u... I haven't installed the bass blockers yet. I purchased them because the speakers we're getting too many low frequencies and it was sounding distorted/rattling my doors off. Would it be better to run the components off the Directed 300/2 and then run the sub off the 600/4? Or the other way around? I want to use the crossovers, but I saw the power/ground connection on each one and wasn't sure how to hook them up. I can set the h/u to high pass? Or do I just set the amp for the comps to be high pass? Does each crossover handle a certain number of speakers? Like one crossover controls the driver side 6.5 and tweeter, while the other crossover covers the passenger side? Do you just split the power wire? Which power wire do you use? PS I've never set up a set of components, let alone wired a crossover. It sounds great though, but I'd love to get the full use of it. Are there any good sites that show how to hook up crossovers / components? And should I run the 600/4 to the components and 300/2 to the sub? Or vice versa? And if I run both amps, will I need to upgrade the alternator, battery etc? I have a 95 dodge neon sedan. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
