nightstarz... correct... but tht alone doesnt improve your SQ if its not done right... it might spoilt your your stuff too if you dunn what you are doing...

anyway... x-over only improves your system when and only when tuning is done right...

i wont suggest pre amp... normally ppl use that because their HU have only 1 rca pre out and they wanna connect the sub amp + component amp. Plus capalang pre amp will give u more noise then fine tune ur system. I personally experience that before.

well most of the e-xover in the market also receives one pair of RCA input... so to me its not a question of how many pre-out your HU have...
