Question about stereo setup
Question about stereo setup
Okay guys, let me try and explain best I can, but this is my first stereo system so I dont really know that much.
Focal Access 165A 6.5" Component (crossover & tweeters)
JL Audio 10" W0
MTX Thunderform box
Rockford 301s
Rockford 200a4
I already had the 301s and the Focals installed abot a month ago and it sounds great! But now ready to install the subs.
Here is my question. The 301s (installed to components) says this 75x2@4ohm, 150x2@2ohm and 300x1 bridged... so im guessing its hooked up 75x2 to the 6.5s... am I correct?
well this new amp that I basically got for free (200a4) says 25x4@4ohm and 50x2@2ohm
so I was thinking I should switch and put the 4channel amp to my compoents and the 301s to my subs...
but how do I know they are hooked up 2ohm and not 4ohm? i would like the 150x2 and 50x4 power and not 75x2 and 25x4....
also, when hooking up the 4 channel does the 50x4 go to each 6.5 and tweeter???

Scott i dont know much about stereo hook ups.
But i see you post the same topics over on nloc.net as well as on here. Most of the members here post over on nloc.net as well. Also there is specific forums for audio questions as well. Wich you will probly get a faster and better answers.
Just giving you a heads up before some moderators start barking at you.

I would get rid of the 200a4 and get a bigger amp for your subs. Focals are power hungry speakers and will take anything you throw at em. Keep them running at the 75w and get some subs that are dual voice coil and run them at 1 ohm, or get some single voice coil subs and run them at 2 ohm. The ohms is merely how the subs are hooked up, parellel or series. If you need any more help or suggestions or anything, let me know and I'll be glad to help.
