Once i get my tweeter covers in the mail, im going to be rewiring my speakers to a 4 channel amp. Has anybody else here done this? I already have my Kenwood wired to 2 12" kicker comps in my trunk with a bettery powering an audiopipe mini amp in my trunk (yes my car runs off 2 batteries-stops my headlights from dimming). I have an 8" speaker in each door(idk the make/model as i got them from a friend that moved recently)and he also spliced in tweeters from the speakers. In the rear i have 2 sony explods installed (not sure of the size b/c the previous owner had them installed).
This will be my first attempt at wiring speakers and i have no clue really what im doing. Can anybody help? I have already bought 16 gauge speaker wire and another set of rca cables. All will be wired to an older 4 channel Sony amp until i can afford a newer one. -------------------- Auto 94 ST COUPE w/ 225k miles

The amplifier has build-in filters, I don't know why you suggest he buys that...

If you connect a tweeter directly to the amplifier, it will burn out soon enough cuz its not build to handle low and mid-range frequencies. -------------------- JDM ST205

As I said, the amplifier has filters and you are wrong. It will filter all of the frequency range depending on your setting and the speakers you are going to connecting. -------------------- |
