[QUOTE="All_Logix, post: 7126180, member: 628274"] Hey guys, I am going to be getting a 2011 civic EX and I am going to run JBL GTi 6.5' comp in the front and just some GTO 6.5 in the back dash. I am going for SQL so I only want to run one 12 and I will have it all wired into one 5 channel amp. Here is where I am looking for your thoughts. I was thinking about running the mid bass drivers into the left and right channels of the rear on the amp, and running the tweets to the left and right on the front channels and of course the sub onto the sub channel, this way I have an active crossover and control frquency pass directly to the tweets and mid-bass. That means I would just just run the back 6.5" off of deck power, since they are basically filler speakers anyway . Is this a good idea? The amp puts out 55 Watts RMS to each channel and the speakers have a ratting of 150 Watts RMS if you run the passive crossover network. On a side note, if I ran the back speakers off of deck power, electrically speaking if I wired the ouputs from the deck for the rear and front positive lefts together and the neg lefts together and same for right and ran it directly into one speaker, it would just sum the current together at the connection node and therefor double my watts, however I am not sure if this would have some sort of effect on the signal, since singal is basically just can alternating current with amplification based on the amplitude of the wave, (watts) is that possible, anyone ever tried?
