Toying around With system ideas
Okay So I am playing around with some system ideas. My only rule is that the drivers Most come from parts express and the amps must match. The only thing I’m lost on is the tweeters, they must be 1 in and normal shape, my confusion is whether or not to use car audio tweets or some from PE. The system will be active and I’m shooting for 1000$ or less. I want to run external x-overs, this should save some cash, also I won’t need any amps with special features.
Active 3-way set up
HU: Nakamichi Cd300
X-over: ARC IDX Digital Crossover
EQ: Kicker kq30 or Eclipse------- Eq2102 both can be found on eBay for cheap.
Up front
6.5’s: Dynavox LW6004PMR or the 8’s if they will fit
Tweets”: You decide
In the trunk
Subwoofer: Diyma Ref 12 Maybe 2
The amps
For Tweets: Orion Cobalt Co300.2
For Woofers: Orion Cobalt Co600.2
For Subwoofers: Orion Cobalt Co800.1
I’m open to all suggestions Just two things.
All amps must match and woofers must come from PE.
I was thinking 4 way but there two problems with this, the first being $$$ and the second is the idx has the phase shift to “move” the subs forward, there would be no way that I know to use it, and still have a active system.
Anyway thanx for all the future help !
P.S. the running total is 1100+ with wires and damping 20ft of damplifer and a roll of raamat.
I plan to get most stuff off ebay.
