Question About The LP,HP & AP Switches on A Rockford Fosgate R600X5 5 Channel Amp.

[soundhd]

In the middle of installing a stereo system in my 70 Roadrunner. Setup is going to be 4 Infinity Kappa full way speakers for the cabin area (two 62.lli (6.5") for the front and two 52.lli (5.5") for the rear) and a Rockford Fosgate sub woofer box for the trunk. The amplifier I purchased is a Rockford Fosgate R600X5 5 channel amplifier. Four channels for each of the cabin speakers and a channel for the sub. My question is about where to set the LP, HP & AP crossover switches that are on the channels for the front and the rear. No LP, HP & AP crossover switches on the sub side of the amp. LP is for low pass, HP is for high pass and AP is for All Pass...but the owner's guide does not explain where they pass to.....You can only set each of the two sets of switches one way. I only want to let the very low frequences get to the sub woofer. Which setting should I use for each bank of switches.

thank you

confused!

You want the "hp" to your 4 speakers. And the "lp" to your sub. Where it gets tricky is the actual frequency settings. I would set the fronts around 80, the rears around 80-100 (not sure on what the 5.25's will play down too) the sub then set at 80. I'm guessing this is your first time setting up and adjusting the amp. There are many tutorials on how to set your gain and filters on youtube.

The 5th channel is interested to be used on a sub so there are no LP/HP/AP switches. There is a frequency dial for the crossover which is a LP and the Punch EQ. As stated above, try the sub frequency dial around 80 and the punch EQ to the low side. Set the fronts and rears to HP at the frequencies stated above.

This should be a good starting point.
