I just bought a set of these comps: (scroll down a lil on the page) http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2792118 just wondering when they say 4ohms, are they referring to both Midbass and Tweets? 2nd Question: I will be powering these with a Kicker KX200.2, soooo, how exactly should I wire these? Thanks ahead of time. Oh yea, actually there is a third question, hehe...What exactly is the difference in passive and active setups with components, thanks again! |

The crossovers have an an input, wire that connection direct to the amp. Crossover says mid and tweeter. Wire the mid to the mid, and tweeter to the tweeter. Oh yea, actually there is a third question, hehe...What exactly is the difference in passive and active setups with components, thanks again! With passive, the crossover points are already set and some crossovers have the option or raising or lowering the db slope. Also requires no external power source and it comes after the amp. With active, you can change your crossover settings, db slope, etc. Requires an external power source and it goes before the amp. This would require you to have a 4 channel amplifier. 2 channels for the mids, and the other 2 channels for the tweeters. check out www.bcae1.com |
