I have this deck and plan on setting it up in pro mode as soon as i get some time. I was wondering if it would be better to use the deck's crossover and just set the amps to full range. Also if someone could help me get an idea of what i should set the crossover frequencies to and at what slope.

Thanks in advance

Midbasses are in front doors and the components which i meant to put down as 5.25 are in the kickpanels

Awesome. Your system will rock. You can use the xos on the head unit and turn them off on the amplifiers - I do.

The nice thing about the Eclipse head unit is that it is so easy to play around with the crossovers to find what sounds best.

I'd try:

sub-> 80hz
Midbass 80-350hz
Components 350hz+

24db slope. In my opinion, the steeper the better for car audio.

Really, your system should be awesome. This is exactly what I'd do if I could get wife approval for kick panels.
