- Polk MM1040 sub
I also still have a Kenwood M845 4-channel amp that is currently not being used (was replaced by the X700).
Curious about 3-way active setup and looking at acquiring the Pioneer DEH-80PRS.
Thinking of reconfiguring things as follows:
- Kenwood M845 as amp with Channel A for mid/mid-bass (*60W RMS 4ohm) to drive DB651 coaxial and Channel B for tweeter (*60W RMS 4ohm) to drive DB6501 tweeter. Will not be using the included passive crossover module.
- RCA splitters to daisy chain mid head unit RCA out to both M845 (channel A) and X700 amp (channel a & b).
- Bridge channel A and B of X700 amp (*100W RMS 4ohm) to drive DB6501 woofer
Not looking to acquire any new equipment except possibly the DEH-80PRS.
Any suggestions or comments (good or bad) about what I am thinking of doing?
Thank you!
