anybody with audiobahn AS series speakers
ok, I got some audiobahn AS65Q 3 ways coming in the mail and all the AS series have removable remote mountable tweeters, and I am using cardboard to form/ fiberglass to make a tweeter mounting spot. I am taking the power mirror panel things above the door panels and making them house tweeters.
now my question is, does the tweeter have a crossover already, I saw a picture of the mounting tabs on the back of a AS series speaker and it loked liek it had some sort of little capacitor or something that might be used to crosseover the tweeter frequencies? is that what this does? if not I am going to order some of these cerwin vega adjustable crossover crossovers http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=18800

Re: anybody with audiobahn AS series speakers
it probably has a bass blocker cap. I'd still get the CV x-over, who knows what frequency that cap cuts off at.

Re: anybody with audiobahn AS series speakers
Just in case you are powering that stuff by an amp, remember audiobahn rates those in pairs.

Re: anybody with audiobahn AS series speakers
oh, well, I got the crossover scoming already. I will use them anyways I guess, but I am not amping them, the front pair is going off of the deck because my pioneer makes it either front/rear or front/sub. when you turn on the sub output the rear speaker leads are now for subs as well so I cant play full range in the back. so the front leads drive front speakers, front amp output goes to the pioneer 35x2 amp powering the rear AS69Q's and then the sub output goes to my BP1200.1 driving the Alum. I wont have any fader except for the gain on the 6x9's amp but once I set it I never really change my settings anyways. I think I am doing what your car already has to mount the tweeters, my friends old 98 civic EX he had a while ago had the tweeters on the doors inside from the mirrors and I didnt know it was standard but now I think so.
anyways, I also just bought a Audiobahn AEQ6Q in dash EQ, has 5 bands, adjustable subwoofer cutoff point, sub level, A/B inputs, 8 volt outputs. eventually I am gonna get a newer 4 channel amp to run all speakers but for now I have spent far too much money to keep going. maybe when my next check comes in the mail.
