[QUOTE="eharri3, post: 6507962, member: 591579"] If you're looking or SQ Id start experimenting with x over points between 80 and 100 HZ with steeper slopes. In my applications if Im not crossing over between 70 and 80 HZ my sub gets into the midbass range and I loose my impression of up-front bass. What I like to do is set both using some sort sort of establismed method, whether it be by ear, DMM, or o-scope. I usually use a DMM cause they're plentify, cheap, and easy to use. Then, what you'll have to do is level match between the two amps. To make the final tweak listen to something you're familiar with, moving the volume from very low to very high then back down again, listening to see if everything is increasing in volume at a similar enough rate than you can hear the frequencies from both the sub and the door speakers in the right proportions at your normal listening levels. Either dial the gain back slightly on whichever gets loud faster than the other, introduce some slight 'overlap' on whatever is lacking, or some mixture of the two. [/QUOTE]
