[QUOTE="helotaxi, post: 7126895, member: 550915"] He's not talking about running the mids in parallel. He's talking about running the front stage active off the amp. The last part of the post is talking about summing the power from the HU. As far as that goes, don't. It isn't going to work the way you think and you don't want much power going to the rears at all anyway. Worst case it cooks the HU. Best case you lose any kind of fade capability. What processor are you planning on using to run the front stage. If you don't have a pretty good one, don't waste your time. The GTi crossovers are probably quite good. Use them. Bridge the amp and run the front stage off the bridged pairs and the rears off the rear channels of the HU. [/QUOTE]
