Posted March 8, 200520 yr should i set the amp and hu to match each other? ive heard of bypassing the amp's low pass crossover if thats even possible. any help would be appreciated.
March 8, 200520 yr Author Yes, it's possible. Best to use one or the other, not both.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>id rather use the crossover on my head unit, but how do i bipass the crossover on my amp?
March 9, 200520 yr Author set it to "full"<{POST_SNAPBACK}>do you mean flat? set the slope to "flat" and adjust LPF to whatever on the hu? if i do that isnt it turning off the crossover on the hu and using the amp's crossover? and if i turn the slope to 6/12/18/24db/oct isnt that turning "on" the crossover on the hu and if i do that do i set my amp's crossover to a certain hz? sorry im such a confused newb.
