Default Need help finding device to take single line level inputs and split 3 ways

I have some line level wires from my full range back deck speakers that I can convert to preamp if needed but I want to power an 8" midbass in the rear deck with 150 watts of bridged power from a 4 channel amp, and the other two channels will be high pass (filtered for no low bass) to the original 6x9's, and then the low pass will go to a class D amp and power my dual 12's.

I used to haveton electronic cross over that could take a single source and split it out like that, high pass, mid pass, and low pass, but I'm having trouble finding one that simple now. Or maybe they all do that and I'm just getting thrown off because they have 3 inputs as well but it's not necessary that all three be plugged in to have all three outputs working?

Looks like this will do it, but I'd prefer a higher sn ratio. Do most oll of these things allow us of 1 input to drive all outputs?

You may want to consider the Audiocontrol 6XS.

Vince's recommendation is spot on.

I just did like all the kids are doing and tapped into the rear high level at the 6x9's and fed it into the amp high level! I'd have never done that back in the day, but everyone else has done it with good results, so I tried and it worked great. I just did without the 8" midbass in the rear package tray. 3.5 two way in dash, 6x9 bass in doors, 6x9 full range in rear deck, dual 12's in sealed box with 500 watts and it sounds great.

This isn't my vette btw.

I certainly don't miss the kick panel speaker locations that my 68 Mustang had,
or taking off the entire dash to replace a few speakers
