Posted March 8, 200520 yr I drew out a little wiring diagram(yes i know it's crappy cause it's offa ms paint) for connecting RCA jacks off the HU for my planned system. In the front, the RE XXX woofer will be run off of a 2 channel amp and the tweets will be run off of two channels of the 4 channel amp. The rear midbass(Adire Koda 6.5) will be run off of the rear channel of the 4 channel amp. Crossover duty will be done by the HU(plan to get an Eclipse) and the 4 channel amp. Does that look right? or do i need something extra?
March 8, 200520 yr Author No, you have the RCAs running to the mids, then to the amp.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>to the mids? The pre-amp for the front channel(denoted by the "v" ends runs to the 2 channel amp and speaker wire(denoted by the rectangular hooks) is to the RE XXX mids. Then the line out goes to the front channel of the 4-channel amp which has speaker wires to the Vifa tweets. The rear channel of the 4 channel runs the koda mids.
March 8, 200520 yr why do you have "rear midbass"?----it is going to throw off your imaging like crazy.
March 8, 200520 yr Author I have the kodas already sitting around so i thought i'd throw em in. Plus i'd only use em when i have passengers or i feel up to adding some midbass into the mix. On a normal basis I'd just stick with running the front speakers.
March 8, 200520 yr Are you sending the same amount of power to the tweets and the mid-bass?or ???Wiring looks fine to me.The Hammer
March 8, 200520 yr Author Are you sending the same amount of power to the tweets and the mid-bass?or ???Wiring looks fine to me.The Hammer<{POST_SNAPBACK}>The XXX 6 is actually a 2 ohm speaker so it'll get a lot more power than the tweeter. I currently have an Orion Xtreme 500.4 which does 62 x 4 so the Tweet will get 62 and the XXX will have 150 (It'll probably be a 75 x 2 @4 ohm amp maybe the zed audio one)
March 8, 200520 yr Admin You need to get that chit hooked up so I can hear the RL-P's and the XXX mids.
March 8, 200520 yr Author You need to get that chit hooked up so I can hear the RL-P's and the XXX mids.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Since the dash kit for my car hasn't come out, it might take a while... Hey ya plannin on going to Mardi Grass Nationals this weekend?

March 9, 200520 yr Author Man, they sent me the wrong speaker! They sent me a RE series component set. Oh well, now i hafta wait til the XXX ships over again. Maybe I'll take a few RE pix before they go bye-bye.
March 10, 200520 yr doesn't work that way with no amp hooked up <{POST_SNAPBACK}>You don't have a ht reciever that could handle them?
