Ok Don...GIVE UP THE GOODS!

(i'm guessing cd7000...since that is what you are so anxiously awaiting)

BTW - any truth to the CC / Eclipse rumor?

 

dammit, I came in here expecting pics!

 

In for picsorz.

 

the eclipse + circuity city is true

 

If this is true I might be saying goodbye to my 7998. I wanna see pics too damnit!!!!

 

before eclipse updates their website, has anyone else noticed that the intro picture with the cd8455 is backwards?

 

4-active is great and all, but does anyone seriously relize that you now need to find a place for:

-Tweets
-Horns
-Midranges
-Madbass Drivers

as well as having 2 - 4 amps in order to run 4-way active? Do you realize how much work setting that up would be?

Not saying it wouldn't be nice, but the amount of work/money needed to do such a thing > me

 

Actually, I was thinking that you could you use it fully tune a 3-way set up in the front AND a rear midbass and power it all off one 5 channel...i could be wrong tho'

 

If you were to do a 4-way active setup, you'd want a 3-way active front stage (2 tweeters, 2 midrange, and 2 midbass) and a sub(s). You'd need 6 channels of amplification just to power the front stage and one or more channels to power the sub(s).

If you don't have the ear, time, and/or money, just stick to passive crossovers. It's ALOT easier.

 

I notice that Don has yet to chime in here.....:attention

 

Uhmmm...he's AT CES.

 

ooooohhhhh.....DAMMIT!!

I've been trying to follow the coverage on engadget.....waaay too much to digest tho'.

 

I would assume it would be a 3 way in front with a sub in the rear. Maybe I could be wrong.

Amplification isn't that hard. I have a 5 and a 4 channel amps in my trunk and I still have more than enough room to use the trunk how I normally would.

 

Pics of your setup?

I added the 4 channel amp about 1.5 months later. Got really lazy and just bolted it to the back of the seat

 

He is? Didnt know...

 

4 way active = 3 way active front stage, plus sub.

 

Yes it is the 7000, btw ...Pearl96Max = 6spdcoupe.

 

Is this the one we are talking about?

no....but that avn unit can control a DCU105 and offer the best of both active flexibility/5.1 audio-video solution

 

Oh... i figured that one out awhile ago

 

I figured ya did...
