Tuning 3-way speakers with a dmm?

hey everyone i was wondering if it was possible to tune my new 3 way speakers with a dmm just like i did with my subs?

...if so what test tone should i use and what equation to figure out the voltage should i use?

i got these for the front (35w rms 4ohm)
Pioneer TS-A1674R (TS A1674R) 6-1/2" 3-Way A-Series Car Speakers

these for the rears (40w rms 4 ohm)
Pioneer TS-A6964R (TSA6964R) 400W 6" x 9" 3-Way Car Speaker

and this amp to drive them
Kenwood X450-4 (X450-4) 4-Channel eXcelon Full Range Power Car Amp
since the rears are higher rms i have them wired to the B channel (100x2 at 4 ohms) and the fronts to the A channel (60x2 at 4 ohms)
 


What do you mean by "tune" them? A multimeter isn't going to "tune" anything sonically... need a RTA, a flat response mic and white noise.

If you want to measure output with a multimeter, just use 1khz tone.
