Can this work as Logic 7 Setup??

[bobven]

Can Audio Sifu's advise if this schematic can work on a C class as Logic 7 using JBL MS 8?

Not an expert but my view is the the center channel need an amp.. if not the tuning of MS-8 may tune down the level for other channels. instead of a 4 channel amp get a 5 channel amp.. Front staging is important.

 

I do not understand why you need a bridging for the rear since you already running a coaxial for the rear; the rear should be more for fill and rear effect.

 

Too many speakers may not be good in a small enclosed space like a C class.

Thanks bro

 

Even the Harmon Kardon setup has so many speakers.. I tried to follow the same..

IMHO.. The MS-8 cannot tune for your bridge..

oh.. ok.. I got it

 

So.. it need to be 8 individual channels...

You can ask kepiting1sg on this. He's our go to guy for anything I.C.E related, should be able to advice you on this.

Alternatively run the front as a passive setup, then MS8 8 channel can run front, side, rear and sub setup.

You mean like this ?

 

X over the Tweeters to Front door speakers. This mean

 

Ch. 1 = FL

Ch.2 = FR

Ch.3 = SL

Ch.4 = SR

Ch.5 = RL

Ch.6 = RR

Ch.7 = Center

Ch.8 = Sub

[Ody_2004]

Yup.. using the passive crossover network that come with the component speakers

Thanks.. here is the new diagram...

 

PS: I got 2 x 4Ch Amps removed from my previous ride.... gonna use by skipping 1 ch

For me i will get a more powerful amp for the front and center esp since the front include a passive crossover.

I will use a lower power amp for the side and rear..

You using Active sub?

How many watts u plan to run per channel?

I have a 800W and a 650 W

 

Plan to use 800 for doors and 650 for rest

 

Sub is Pioneer (inside the spare wheel one)

[Ody_2004]

Decent power.

Pioneer sub cannot go low.. a customised sub enclosure is better if u can give up boot space

My installer said.. for SQ setup it is good...

 

I cant let go the boot space... my wife will chase me with broom stick like this below

imho

For HK Logic 7 is more for a HT & that why it includes a pair of rear surround speakers.

For pure SQ like home audio you just have a pair of 2 way or 3 way speakers.

Likewise strictly for SQ,

2 or 3 way active front with a 12" sub in a sealed box if you are a bass head cos 10" sub won't go to the lower Hz.

Get a good processor with time alignment & a tuner with a good pair of ears

In the past not many tuners can tune a 3 way active front satisfactory.

Nowadays many tuners go that extra mile to tune a good 3 way active front set up.

IMHO there's no such thing as over-powered but instead lots of headroom.

A 4 channel amp to drive the front mid & tweets, a 2 channel higher power than the front channel to drive your mid bass, a monoblock to drive your 12" sealed sub.

Look for a sub that need <1 cu ft of volume or throw away your spare tyre to have space for your sub there. Happy ICEing

[Ody_2004]

Yes i love big Real power Amp! Not those on paper rated high and cannot delivered. 200 watts per channel is the min for me..

I into SQ too.. the money spent is more worthwhile as spending on 7 channel setup most time don utilise it.

But too bad.. gave up ICE liao.. current W204 running just MS8..
