I've installed a new Kenwood KDC-X704...basically I am trying to understand how to best set this up (in addition to what just sounds best by ear), by better understanding how (if) the unit "knows" what frequencies go to tweeters, etc. see below...
How does the unit know what goes to a tweeter? there is only 2 channels (L and R) Front or L and R Rear Or Subwoofer (L and R). In my system I am driving fronts through a JL 500/5 through an a/d/s 346is passive crossover system...this I understand" because we are actuallly filtering and splitting the signals frequencies at the a/d/s crossover ...but how will the Kenwood settings effect this? Can I just get rid of the a/d/s crossover? (pretty sure not)...Sorry..my ignorance on how the Kenwood h/u is key here...I want to send all the signals to the passive crossover and let it separate them...no? I have a feeling that if I'm double crossing the signals that the slope is additive? so I would have a narrower selection of freqs?
Appreciate any tutalage on this!
Thanks
Tony
