New system design

Post by jeffg »

I just wanted to post my new system setup and see if anyone has any comments. I plan on documenting the install and posting pics as I go.

I am open to any comments and suggestions. I would love to hear comments specifically if you have used the same components that I have. All of the crossover points are theoretical, but should be pretty close. I will adjust them when I get the system working and have a chance to run it with an RTA.

It should be pretty simple I think. Active 4 way system. No passive crossovers and full frequence response.

If you call 4 amps, two crossovers and an equalizer "simple", i'd hate to see what you consider complicated. :lol:

So it looks like you are running two sets of the Quart comps?

two sets of MBQ 6' and tweet components, 8" midbass under each front seat and the ND15 in the rear deck.

I guess I consider it simple because of the install. Its very straight forward with no complicated wiring or anything. No DOLBY processors to tune, no time alignment or anything complated. Just good old fashioned Stereo.

The last installs I did had motorized amp racks and polished plexi. This one is pretty simple compared to that.
