    I want to change my speaker system from passive to active crossover set up so I will need 8 channels instead of 4... Right now I have a JL 300/4 and want to replace it with A/D/S 860... I am trying to avoid adding another amp (another 300/4) so I do not have to deal with another set of wires... Any comments? The components are 2 sets of HEX600a...

    just run 1 audiocontrol 4XS, and then use y splitters on the corresponding RCA's to run to the 2nd amp

    Sorry for not making myself clear... :)
    I am going to use Sony XEC-1000 3 way crossover (it has separate hi and lo for front and rear plus the sub output)... My question was actually about if there would be a problem with using a/d/s 860 8-channel amp to replace the current JL 300/4 (need another 4 amp channels to run 8 main channels) or should I get another 300/4? I was thinking about using this 300/4 in my other car where I am going to use 3 300/4 amps for the main channels...
