    CJ I really can't see why you don't want to use another amp other than the cost, if cost is the reason why on earth did you buy subs that don't match ?
    To be honest if you are going out with just one amp you are taking a huge risk, if you run one for your subs & one for your tops & you had a problem within 10 seconds you could sort it out.
    You don't have to use an active cross over you could just adjust the volumes on the individual amps, although obvoisly it would be better to have active cross over.

    This looks like a very good deal , although I have no doubt someone else may have a better suggestion.

    Sorry if my last reply to you sounded a little sharp but I just can't work out your logic

    It all sounds awfully complex with all the different speakers & amps for what it's worth.
    Why not just put the lot on ebay and then buy 1 good quality sound system that will cater for the functions that you need to do and run it off 1 amp using built in crossovers. I have used active crossovers before with 2 amps and its just all extra cables that you have to run to speakers and all the extra wiring you have to do wiring the crossovers up ect.

    I would really personally have a good think about what you are going to do.

    I agree this is what im saying im fed up of load of wires time to set up ect.

    I want to keep my bins there 600w rms 8ohms, so would i need 300w rms tops for the best to link them with a 4ohm 900w rms a side??

    I just want a simple but good setup. I was thinkin 4 speakers, 1 amp and 2 fightcases.


    This is what i am thinking would it work?

    one case = mixer,mic,pcdj contoller.
    other case = one 4ohm 900w rms a side amp
    4 speakers My bass bin link/poles to a pair of 300w rms tops

    and sell the ull15 or keep them with my exsiting amp or sound renforcement at large venues.

    Mate, I give up! What you have suggested will sound crap, won't do what you want or think, and won't give the volume you think.
