Get a simple passive crossover for the speakers and cut the frequencies. Or get an electronic active crossover and then you can do the front, rears and the sub all in one unit.

turn your bass down a little on your cd player and if you have a good amp with a bass booster then you should have no problem.

Instead of bass blockers you can use 220uf capacitors instead. Same thing but cheaper.

Go for Velocity's advice. Passive or active. Do it right the first time. If you have the means, get an active crossover or an EQ which has dual outputs. Youll notice a big difference in how your system sounds, and best of all you can tailor the sound to what you like.

Here is a popular EQ model: www.alpine1.com ERE-G180
