did you have to use a crossover when you installed these. and what kind of amp are you running? thank you for any information

No I don't have any crossover installed for mine. As far as the amp, I have an old fosgate 200.2 running them. I think they sound great. Very loud and clean

No crossover is needed. These component speakers have built in crossovers. I myself am running these with an Alpine T505. SQ is very good and louder than most will ever need.

You will need to use the crossovers to distribute the correct frequencies to the speakers, thank you.

I did not use crossovers, as the focal's did not include their own. Instead I used the high pass filter on my amp and things have sounded great so far. The amp I am using is a Phoenix Gold V754.

I have them hooked up to 2 1200 watt speakers. The amp only can be hooked up via speaker wire tho

First you have to find a suitable place to mount the crossover. I mounted them inside the door panels using 2 sided tape. Whether your using an amp or the head unit the speaker wires coming from the source(amp or head unit) get connected to the input + & - on the crossover. Then you run the wires from the + & - woofer terminals on the crossover to the + & - terminals on the driver(woofer). Finally you run the wires from/the + & - tweeter terminals on the croosover to the + & - wires on your tweeters. It's pretty straightforward once you find a good mounting location for the crossovers. If you are somewhat mechanically inclined & patient you should be alright.

Try wiring them both ways. Whichever way sounds ok, solder them that way. You won't hurt anything buy doing this. When I did mine it made no difference in sound. They sound really good.

Sorry, I don't know what crossover means. I plug these into my smartTV or laptop (using the headphone jack). Sorry I couldn't help more. I like logitech speakers better btw. They have better bass. I have a set of those in another room.

I have biwired them by connecting 4 teminals on my monoblock amps to 4 teminals on each speaker. They can go very laud if that is your question. Actually they sound much better under the load

Fellow aftermarket Pioneer stereo user here, they work fine just plugging straight into it. Havent had to bust out a spare amp yet.

Yep. Realized i wasnt going to use crossover...but hooking them up along side my main speakers...the high frequencies were way better. Works well enough that i bought a total of 6 for my surround sound. Plenty power for my system.

I have measured their impedence as around 4 1/2 ohms over much of their frequency range; this is likely to rise around the crossover point when you add a capacitor (eg 3.3 microfarad) to keep low frequencies out. Whether they sound any good will depend on whether they are similar to what you are replacing, they are very efficient and might end up sounding very bright, with unpredictable integration with whatever woofers you are using. Good luck! Richard

The high level outputs are just a pass-through from whatever source you're using to power the main or satellite speakers. The "crossover" only controls the max frequencies handled by the subwoofer (it's really a low-pass filter for the sub) and doesn't roll off the low end to the high level outputs.

I'm no audio expert and there are really too many variables involved to answer that question but, if you already have a crossover matched to your speakers, I don't think you would see any difference.

you need a two way cross over. or two audio out puts. one output for the amp and speakers and one output for the subwoofer. you might be able to use the output on the subwoofer to go to the amp for the speakers

Don't know about the graph but I really can't remember if they have a crossover....I installed them on my Goldwing in the front...good highs but not so good on the bass....sounded small

No crossovers on them it's the mid bass woofer only. It's a nice looking speaker. By the way I bought on amazon and never used them would u want to buy my set I could cut the price a little bit. Please let me know. Thanks I can also ship out tomorrow.

No they do not, if you are not using an amp with a built in crossover, I wouldn't bother. However I have had them in my car for over a year with an amp, and I push the little guys pretty hard and have no issues so far...

had these professionally installed. For the four 5.25 speakers they used a 300 watt Alpine amp and for the 8" sub a 300 watt kicker amp. Hope this helps
