Icecube, yes, your crossover can run the system FULL ACTIVE and do away with the passives.
Note that under your MID, there are a LPF and HPF for the mids.
LPF + HPF for the mids=bandpass.

Hahahahaha!! mnkh, you really understand me!!! :lol: :lol:

So basically the bandpass is actually frequencies between the low pass cut and the high pass cut ? If correct, then now i know how this basically works.

oh thanks mr.yong.. will put aside the passive crossover and go FULLY active.

Just thinking that the caliber 1600w 4ch is way too powerful for just the 6.5" and tweeter....

icecube,

u check the amp. im very sure it mention it said MAX 1600w x 4. not norminal power. whahaha. so expect only 1/3 of the power is only real and that still have to divide by 4

ya i think its around 200rms perchannel maybe..coz i blast my b52 (ori one mind u) and cant turn the gain to full becoz the sound start to crack already and i cannot bear the bass already......... LOL.... [btw,i bridge the 2 channel to whack the sub]

No worries!!
I think that Caliber amp is way over rated and somemore it is rated at Max.
The more realistic rating shall be in RMS, or in continuous power output.
So in real life your amp will most likely be just about 4 x 110W RMS.
Remember though, set you amp input sensitivity gain to Min and the HPF for your tweeters to be above 3,500HZ before you start to play and tune, or else you'll end up with 2 smoked tweeters!! :lol:
If you need any help on the tuning part, just let me know.

 

[normality78]

wahahaha, i think dun even ahve 110w
