[QUOTE="klassic, post: 842258, member: 559732"] where you cross your sub and components over are completely dependant on the car its in and the speakers used. You can a) use a meter and test tone and set the x-over accordingly to reduce spikes/fill dips in the frequency curve (along with an eq) or if you listen to music and not test tones you can do like most people b) set up your components 1rst and cross them over as low as they will play without audible distortion at the power level you are feeding them. Then set up your subs X-over point to match or what sounds good to your ears. 70hz sounds like a reasonable enough x-over point for 6.5" Hex components. Personally I dont even look at the frequencies when setting my X-over, I let my ears decide. IMO x-over of about 80hz is about the limit for keeping the bass up front. Whatever the case nobody can "recommend" a crossover point for anybody else. [/QUOTE]
