For these speakers?

I understand that it splits the frequencies up so that the tweeter only get highs and the woofer only gets low so i'm thinking as they're separate, will i need to wire in a crossover?? p.s. this is the headunit they are being wired to -

Sorry i'm a bit of a novice when it comes to the technical side of stereos.

I would assume you will be getting the crossover's with these speakers, but dont quote me on that, and if you dont get them, then yeah, you will need them, to split the tweeters and the woofer,

I got a set of infinity speakers and the came with all the tweeters and crossovers, but a set like that, reduced from £99 i would hope come with crossovers, if in doubt email them and check
