Running A Component Set Active Off of A Single Amp...

All,

I wanted to know if anyone can steer me in the direction of a single, 4 channel amplifier where two of the channels can be crossed over to run the midbass drivers of a component set, and the other two channels can be crossed over to run the tweeters. I know there are certain amps that support this, but I have found very few. The one that comes to mind is the Sinus Live Verstarker SLA-260.4. Is there any reason more companies don't do this? The only thing I can think of is not having separate gains for the mid and the tweet... but perhaps I'm missing something.

Thanks,

Hans
 
You can just use a 2way crossover on that amp, along with the one in amp you could BP. I have an amp that would do that high subsonic, I think it was a hifonics. Not found the one I saw, it was on some audio site and people there loved these amps for some reason.
 
i have seen some alpine V12's that i think can do that. they had a switch to multiply the crossover frequency by 10 or by 1. otherwise a good outboard electronic crosover would probably be a better choice plus nowadays some higher end headunits have complex crossovers built in.
 
Thanks for the input guys,

After some searching, it looks like the JL Audio 450/4v2 can do everything I need. I agree that an external crossover and multiple amps would be the best way to go, however, space is at a serious premium in the car, and finding something that does the job of three pieces of hardware with one is very attractive at the moment...
