[QUOTE="beginner, post: 8268839, member: 661259"] I know U guys probably think this is a stupid question. There's a lot of people who don't know this including me, I do know , going active eliminates crossovers that come with components and you have to cross it over urself. . You can say to ur self if you don't know this you shouldn't be going active. That might be true but I've read to many people say active brings ur speakers to life. .I've seen threads on this but no explanation and the one that does explain things gets to technical.So I challenge someone who has experience to explain whats needed for the sake of beginners. Im going to be replacing my speakers with something more high end, so in the mean time I wanna get a good idea of how to setup all the settings with what I have. Here what I have, and you guys tell me what I need for this setup. Pioneer 1400dvd headunit. ... basic 8 band eq, high/low pass crossover 6 rca ,believe 2v Rockford punch amp. 4x60 or 225x2 at 4 ohms infinity perfect 6.1 components with crossover alpine something on rears have a 551s Rockford amp for sub...not sub yet This is what I want to practice on so you guys tell me what else im missing to go active. My set-up that I will have once im good is Pioneer p1400pdvd headunit- same ppi components the new ones, tweeters and mid will be strategically placed in a pillar my current infinity perfect front woofers will be put in rear doors ppi 900.4 amp 4x135 for fronts and might keep Rockford 450.4 for rears Rockford 551s for sub....not sure on sub All my doors will be deadening and dampened [/QUOTE]
