Highpass the fronts (mids & tweets) around 100 up, and low pass the sub arond 80 down. Where you do this depends on the setup, may be able to use the amps, may have to get an x over.

well my amp for my sub has an adjustable crossover...i think its from 40 - 120...i have that around 80 now...i have a pioneer headunit...how would i set up the crossover for the interior speakers?

Do you have an x over for the mids/tweets? Is it built into the pioneer, pio does make some that have a built in x over...but if not you need to get one...do you have upgraded speakers?

ok...all the specs...Pioneer DEH-3400 headunit, 2 pairs of Pioneer 6 1/2 3-ways, Rockford 300S amp, a pair of Rockford 10's

thanks man,

Read the instruction manuals for all your equipment...

That will get you a long way.

But its so much easier if someone just tells me!!!

ok, you need to buy a cross over.

ok...i read my manuels today and nothing...then i went to Best Buy and spoke to the d**k in the back and he said that i'd have to buy a whole separate amp to control the crossover...then another guy said i need a "filter"

why do i get the feeling they didn't know anything??...my friend gave me a thing called "Speaker Savers"...anyone hear of those?...what are those good for?

Where would i buy the crossovers and where are they installed?

Just get Bass Blockers, they will cost you like $15
