The drivers are all 4 ohm. The job of the passive crossover is two-fold. Firstly it keeps each speaker playing the range it can cover properly. Secondondly, for the amp, it divides the speakers into separate ranges so the amp only 'sees' each speaker one at a time.

The bi-amp feature on the crossover just lets you run more power to the midbass if you want.

 

You should choose one and give the other one to me:P lol

 

I will give one to you if you give money to me.

 

How much for the RF.

 

Put prices up for either

 

You guys are pretty funny. This post isnt about selling my amps...

I suppose I will end up getting rid of one anyway... so

RF: 169$ shipped (4 or 2 channel)
Cadence: 209$ shipped

So far though, most people have suggested I use the RF so uhhmmm.... But the Cadence's fuse might indicate it makes more then 400watts (2 25 amps fuses) so maybe it has an extra 100watts or so advantage. I need to find actual power figures for it.

 

if its not to much work run one for a few days then swap it out for the other . That is if its easy to do . this way you can make an educated guess.
take a minute or two for tweeking and tuning drive iot for a week put both threw all the tests you can think of and sell the one that is your least favorite.

 

Well I probably wont get to install it till next spring since Its getting to cold and I dont have a garage. Hopefully next year I will own a garage heh.

I opened up the amps to compare what they look like from inside. I will get picks up later.

It was interesting to compare the 2 rockford 400watt amps, both punch series, one older and one newer, one bigger and one smaller.

I regret not opening up all the amps I have owened, its fun to compare. Not that I really know anything about what I am seeing ha.

 

Here are the 2 RF amps, to the left is the 4 channel and to the right, the 2 channel. the 4 channel looks beefier to me, anyone care to give breef explanations as to what is what in there?



Here is the cadence internals, looks pretty nice.
