[QUOTE="Fi-brations, post: 7901039, member: 636442"] the subwoofer is fine set at 80hz, xover slopes do have a role off, but where the subwoofer slopes off the midbass should pick up, so setting them both at 80hz is fine, you'll just have to play around with what sounds best, but ur subwoofer lpf should not be set above 80hz and your midbass lpf should not be set below 80hz unless you know what you are doing and what your midbass drivers can actually handle in terms of low frequency reproduction. So far you have done everything right, as far a using the amp vs hu's xovers, just use the one that has the most flexibility. Your supposedly sending your subwoofer 300w right? That sounds like a good wattage for that sub, but if you want you could try sending it a little more, but if more bass is your goal you should upgrade both your subwoofer and put in an amp for it. If you just want higher clarity from your speakers, I would suggest upgrading the hu, speakers, speaker amp; you dont have to do that all at once, one step at a time should yield noticeable increases in sq [/QUOTE]
