Looking at using a 50W x 4 channel amp off the head unit to power all four speakers. Is it possible to set the rears up as subwoofers with roll off to the fronts? Then I could fade back and forth to suit the program, passengers, etc.
are you saying the amp built into the head unit? Or are you looking at an external amp? What kind of radio do you have? From my knowledge, I haven't seen a radio that can power a sub. The crossover part is only for high pass typically plus you won't have the power to get any low frequency output with 18-22w per speaker. Get an external amp and you'll be happier. If you don't need rears, you can get a beefy enough 4ch and be good. If you need rears, get a 5ch and run the 5th channel to a single 8 in the rear deck.
