Ive been out of car audio for a while, probably 5 years or so.
Currently I have a MMATS d200hc monoblock (I know that's the sq forms ) powering 3 JL 12w7s.
For my highs/mids I've always used focal. Right now Im running a 6 channel a/d/s amp (2 mids, 2 tweets, 2 rearfill). I also had a PPI Pro 650, which back then was the best 6 channel Ive ever gotten my hands on.

Now I need something for my work car, since I spend more time in it then anywhere else. I still have 3 12s Alumpro's Alchemy's lying around. Will probably use them with another mmats class d amp.
My question is this, does anyone still make good 6 channel amps?
I know most sq setups people just go fronts/tweets and don't have rearfill.
I hate using passive cross-overs, and looking to find a 6 channel amp to go all active (2 front/2 back/2 tweets).
Ill probably be getting all Focals Poly series, maybe Ill get beryllium tweets in front though, since Im a really big fan of beryllium tweeters in general.
Deck should have 6 pre-outs, Im sure they still make decks like that....my old pioneer head unit had 6 pre outs as well.
So do I have any options for a good 6 channel amp (highpass and 2 bandwidth pass, 24 db crossovers)? Or Im better of going 1 4 channel amp and 1 2 channel amp.

My bet would lay in the 4 channel and 2 channel amp set up for you. The choice of a proper cd player that has onboard crossovers should pan out to be exactly what you need. The Eclipse CD7000 comes to mind for this application.

havnt heard of any 6 channels. but focal has a really nice 5 channel. probably wont work for your application but the 4 and 2 channels are definatley worth a look at.

I can't offhand think of any amps that have 6 channels and 24db bandpass on 4 of the channels...

I agree that external crossovers are probably your best bet, and maybe a 6 channel or a 4+2 setup.

Yeah, that's why I loved that PPI Pro 650 amp so much, 24db cross overs, 2 channels high pass, 2 channels low pass, 2 channels bandpass (between the high/low pass). You could however select the lowpass channel to do bandpass as well.
How are the Focal car audio amps? I might have to go that route, I know they make amazing speakers.

Infinity and JBL both make 6 channels. If you can't find them locally just PM me.

The Focal amps have proven to be a excellent amplifier.
