What is a good frequency to set my crossover at for my mids?

Thanks

 

Depends on your control, and if you abuse them. Some run high pass from 50 hz and up to get some up front bass and blending, others around 100hz and up so that if you turn it up with to much distortion they dont' blow, and some run 6000 and down...But none of this matters without info like what they are and what size they are...It to some extent comes down to what they can do and what acually sounds rite.

 

 

If they are a strong mid running off some good power i would look at the 60hz range. If they are running off a stock deck or just can't match anything close to the subs output, i would go something around 100hz.

Just my .02

 

They are eclipse 6.5 point source running off a Nakamichi 45z headunit.

I also have 2 boston pro 10s providing bass.

 

I would set your x-over higher (150-200hz). The mids running off the deck will distort any lower and those ranges should fill in where the subs leave off. If more distortion then raise the x-over until at high volumes there is no noticeable distortion.

 

If you play your subs(in the rear) up over the 100hz, you end up playing them into the midbass, and you get crap...it's just a bad idea.


As for the point source there pretty good i'd cross them over around 80hz and up, run the subs around 90hz and down...start there and play with it.

 

u should go with sounds best to u. and in my opinion anything below 60hz is just going to cause too much distortion
