[QUOTE="ngsm13, post: 8181149, member: 544830"] Are you wanting to run a 3-way active setup? This requires an amp directly to tweeters, and amp directly to mids, and an amp directly to subs. All crossover points are done at the HU, (pre-amp) and your amplifiers are given a processed signal that is already crossed-over according to the speaker. Otherwise, you'll want Front/Rear/Sub. It is only important if you're doing 3-way really. I prefer to use the HU xover if it allows you to actually adjust slopes and frequencies, as you said most amps you don't get an exact point. So I'll set my amp to full range, and xover at the HU. If not, your xover points will be additive, making you rolloff at frequencies where both the HU and Amp xover are in effect, sharper. [/QUOTE]
