I have a
1999 Celica with 4 6.5" speakers and the little tweeter in the door. I am pretty sure there is only one factory amp in the console. For some mysterious reason, the rear speakers are only getting about 1/4 the power of the front speakers, and very little bass. I replaced all 6.5 inch speakers with JL audio, and replaced the head unit with a pioneer mp3 player. Still, the problem persists. I have double checked the head unit installation, and all seems to be fine. Is it possible the factory amp only partially crapped out on the rear speakers? If so, what should i replace it with? I don't need anything fancy. The front 4 speakers sound great. I'd just like the rear speakers to sound as good. Should I (could I) just bypass it? Any help/hints you could offer would be greatly appreciated, as I am getting quite frustrated! Thank you in advance, Joy |

the easiest way is to reach in there and actually unplug the amp. Use this harness to connect into a stock toyota install harness. rig that up and your money EDIT: And its rated RMS not peak. Darrr. This post has been edited by Andason: Jun 26, 2004 - 10:06 PM -------------------- i am awesome
