[QUOTE="melvimbe, post: 1381245, member: 35314"] A few things. I'm not hellbent on audison, it's just what my shop is pushing. Agree that I probably need to look strongly at other DSP/amp options, on my own and/or with another shop. The conversation above does help clear things up a bit. Looking at the audison site, and based on what [USER=7124]@The Car Stereo Company[/USER] stated above, I'm pretty confident the plan was to use amp with seperate channels for the front components, ditching the crossover that came with the focals. I can see where that's advantagous from a DSP standpoint. With this amp, I'd get 85W @ 4ohm for the main 6 speakers, and 1 260W @ 4ohm for a single sub. Sounds like 85W is more than enough, but I'm limited on the sub side. I could add a seperate amp for the subs, but then my 'main' sub is over sized. The pre-configured setup, which I imagine can be tweaked. High pass (tweeters) - 3000hz@12db Band pass (front woofers) - 500-3000hz@12db High pass (rear) - 80hz@12db Lo pass (Sub) - 80hz@12db But again, I think it's time to look at other options a bit further. One question, can a single mono amp be used to drive 2 subs? My understanding is that if you wire 2 speakers in parallel like this, you're presenting the impedance of the speakers on the amp. So for example, a mono amp that was rated to handle a 4ohm or 2 ohm impedance hooked up to two subs rated at 4 ohms, would actually have the W specified for 2 ohms. Correct? [/QUOTE]
