Ok I have..

[flava30 10+ year member]

two Whip Audio speakers(200watts/100wattsRMS) in the front with O2 tweeters (70Watts/40RMS)

I have two Alpine type R in the rear(275watts/55RMS) replaced the tweeters with O2 (Same as above) because they blew...

I Have a Rockford Fosgate 301x amp for the interior speakers...Amplifier Type:

Multi-Channel

RMS Power @ 4 Ohms: 40W x 4

THD at 4-Ohm RMS Power: 0.05%

Bridged RMS Power @ 4 Ohms: 150W x 2

Speaker Level Inputs: yes

Preamp Outputs: yes

Built-In Crossovers: HP/LP

Bass Boost: None

Frequency Response: 20-20,000 Hz

Signal to Noise Ratio: 100 dB

Fuse Rating: 30 amps

I have a Rockford Fosgate P5002:

125 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms

250 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms

500 watts RMS in bridged mode at 4 ohms

stereo or bridged mono output

4-ohm stable in bridged mode

I have it bridged powering a JBL 12" P1222 in a sealed box:

Power Handling, RMS 400 Watts

Power Handling, Peak 1200 Watts

Sensitivity 97dB

Now, I have an MTX amp 202 laying around that I want to hook up to the system:

50 WATTS X 2 RMS INTO A 4OHM LOAD

100 WATTS X 2 RMS INTO A 2 OHM LOAD

200 WATTS X 1 RMS BRIDGED INTO 4 OHM LOAD

FREQUENCY RESPONSE 20-20,000 HZ

My question is can I hook the RF 301x to the frnt speakers only and the MTX to the rears.....

I will then have 3 amps...is that ok?

I also have a crossover and 1farad cap, and a redtop optima under

Yes you can do that.

Yea you can run 3 amps.

Just make sure that you have the outputs right from the headunit. Are you running this with active crossovers or passive?

 

[flava30 10+ year member]

I have an active crossover and I forgot to mention a pioneer 580mp HU....

I was just going to but another amp (4-channel) that had more power like a Jupiter XX, but money is tight and I have the MTX just laying around...

I plan to get Beyma 6.5" components for the front's and move the Whip Audio set up to the rear...6.5" BTW and take the 6x9" out of the rear....as I hear that oval shape speakers sound distorted. I know a lot of you say ditch the rear, but I like it.....

 

[flava30 10+ year member]

hey, B&W what kind of speaker is that on your sig? It looks like a Beyma...

Bowers & Wilkins 703...

It is a picture of the FST Kevlar midrange...

 

[flava30 10+ year member]

Is Kevlar the best material out there now?

Out of all the speaker's specs, I'd say cone material falls pretty far down the list //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

One of the better ones for midrange. Depending on how it is made some carbon fiber ones are just as good. But, cone material is only a small fraction of what makes up the sound of a driver...

flava30-Different cone materials in many cases have different attributes. There are pros and cons to all of them. Also check out the phase plug flava30.

What is a good driver? I wanna buy Beyma comps and put those in the front and move the Whip Audio comps to the back....I was going to put (EV) Electro Voice 10" in the rear. For soem reason they are a big thing here in NYC.

 

[flava30 10+ year member]

I guess I would have to go to a store to listen to them and see how they sound. Although I have heard EV's and Beyma and they are crystal clear, but not too bright.

I think I should write sound technical manuals...

Because I even talk like that in daily life... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
