Should I Put My Splits In The Front Or Rear?

[show.it.off]

Hi,

So as the title states.

I have a 2 door R33 skykine and i want to know if i should put the splits in the front or back?

i also have alpine 2 ways.

they are alpine type s and i also have 2x 12"alpine subs.

and a Cadence 5 channel amp.

Would i be better off wiring the speakers to the amp? If so the splits? or the 2 ways?

Whats your opinions to make it sound best?

thanks

Hi

Always put the best speakers in the front.

With the 5 ch amp you can run fronts/rear/sub off that amp.

So my opinion is put the splits in the front, the two ways in the rear and run all of it including the sub from the amp.

I hope this helps

^^^ yep ^^^

think of when you are seeing a band live. there are never speakers behind you, and you don't stand backwards to make the music sound better.

sound stage belongs in front of you. rear fill is very rarely even "required" for good sound and only really ever "needed" if you care about keeping back seat passengers happy.

thanks for the reply guys.

So i would be bettter of running all my speakers and subs off the 1 Amp?

do i need a mono block or anything or is it all good

i would reccomend a monoblock for those 2 12" subs that 5 channel wouldnt have anything more then 200watts rms wich is more for 1 sub, Also make sure ur head unit is a 3 rca output otherwise u need to split the rca's and u wont be able to fade or have sub controll
