You will need some kind of crossover (set to approximately 2500Hz) to send the correct frequencies to the drivers. The two easiest options are:


(1) Electronic (active) crossover like an Audiocontrol 2XS that will split the pre-amp frequencies. You'd then need a 4ch amp to power each driver.

Head Unit --> Active Crossover --> Amp --> Speakers



(2) Passive crossover that splits an amplified signal. You'd only need a 2ch amp to drive the components.

Head Unit --> Amp --> Passive Crossover --> Speakers
