Good option for going active?

[Shogen 325]

So, in an effort to get better sound I came across this:

It's made by Arc Audio

Manual pg.9:

For that price aren't you close to some decent amps that would allow you to be active.

Or why not just use your headunit?

i dont see any mention of TA either.

That's uber expensive for rather limited (read 1990) functionality. Personally I'd do it in a headunit or with something where the controls are up front.

lol...I thought it looked weird with the control setup but it does something nicely. Bandpass which I've not seen in a HU. Unless I've yet to discover my P800

[///M5 2,833]

Most headunits bandpass.

*that are worth a shit for active that is

If I could have a HU that had bandpass option alone I think I'd be happier than ever right now.... Could you maybe point to one or two with that option? Price not a concern for the time being...

The 800 or 880 prs can bandpass. I forget which one you have.

I have an 800... Are you sure I can? I haven't seen any options that look remotely similar to bandpass

SHYT!! I have a P880.... Somehow forgot...

[ricksi30 923]

The sub has a LPF.

The mid has a HPF and a LPF (Bandpass)

The high has a HPF

Haha I thought you did. I remember when you bought it on here.

[Shogen 325]

I didn't see the options and you'd think in the manual it would clearly state "bandpass"

Yeah I don't have my manual so I don't know. But you can bandpass the mid.

[Shogen 325]

I see.... Well, then that leaves a hole because I'd need to highpass the tweet and there is not way to do so...

Yes you can. Did you miss this post

I'm looking in the manual and it mentions nothing of a sort.... POOP! I know you have/had a P8xx series HU, so you know if you did it or not right?

lol... I did miss that post... I guess I need to revisit the HU since manuals never help me anyway...

[Shogen 325]

Does the HPF go high enough for a tweeter though? Like 2k plus?

[ricksi30 923]

Yeah I am currently using an 880 in network mode (3 way active) with my amps xovers for a semi active 4way.

[ricksi30 923]

Does the HPF go high enough for a tweeter though? Like 2k plus?

Yes it goes much higher than 2k.

WTF!! I'm going into my car right now!

[ricksi30 923]

You do have the headunit in "network mode" correct?

[Shogen 325]

I don't think I do... I just came back from the car and it only allows me adjustment of left and right separate or together... from 200hz to 50hz... on F.HPF1 and R.HPF1
