What rms rated and peak power rated 6X9's can I use on my MTX Blue Thunder Pro 400x5

but wouldnt a 3 way have mids low bass and high frequency?

When your midrange and your tweeter are barely any different and your crossover is garbage, not only does it not make things better, it makes them worse.

A real three way does have low mid high. The speakers you are thinking of have a almost full range 6*9 plus several crappy tweeters. If you start with crap, adding more crap to it just makes a bigger pile of crap.

by any different u mean the size?

Basically, although it is not the size it is that they are all tweeters, they are covering the same frequency. This causes issues with the response. It doesn't help anything, it makes everything worse.

so i should go with 2way speakers then huh....and 1 more question im confused about on the mtx specs it says

25 watts x 2 into a 4 ohm

50 watts x 2 into a 2 ohm

how do you read that wouldnt it have to read

25 watts x 4 or

50 watts x 4

since 4 is the number of channels not 2 channel?

correct. If it is a 4 channel.

I don't know what speaker you are looking at but these are good, and a great price:

Aura 6900RPM 6" x 9" 2-way Coaxial Speaker Pair 269-185

If it is a 4 channel.

thats what im asking why does it say 25 watts x 2 and not 25 watts x 4?

 

[89Eldorado 10+ year member]

i got subs too so should i look for speakers higher in the high frequency range rather than in the low?

 

[duanebro 10+ year member]

Can be an error in the manual. can you post a pic of the amp? make sure you can see the speaker connectors in the pic.

i also found the same with this but i kinda get this since its just 2 channel

Rockford Fosgate Punch 400S 100W x 2 Car Amplifier at Crutchfield.com

100 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms

200 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms

400 watts RMS x 1 at 4 ohms in bridged mode

it means its 100 watts each channel when both are in use at 4ohm and 200 watts each channel when both are in use and 400 bridge but how do i read the rms on meach channel on mine when all four channels are in used or 3 or 2?

MTX decided to word it so it's F and R separately, even though they have the same power ratings. It's 25x2 @ 4 in the front and 25x2 @ 4 in the rear.

ok i get it now...1 more question how do i build a surface to place 4 6x9s on my back should i just lay the surface and mount the 6x9s or should i make like a type of box to house the 6x9s whould it make a difference in sound?
