    Crossover problem

    Yeah, I said I "did that for one side just to test it out" in the first post. Anyway, I have both sets of components hooked up to their respective crossovers and changed out the rear speakers to a set of 6.5" 2-ways. I decided not to put in the amplifier but I changed out the headunit to a...

    Crossover problem

    Well as I said in the first post, I tried hooking up the aftermarket crossover to one side while the other side retained the factory wiring. The 606c's sounded fine, crisp, and clear before I hooked up the line (going to the mid) to the crossover (then from the crossover to the woofer and...

    Crossover problem

    Hmm, how interesting. Well, since there's more clarity and sound quality WITHOUT the crossover, wouldn't I be better off amplifying the two speakers without the provided crossover? I think I should also check whether I accidentally wired the speaker in series. If that's the case, it might...

    Crossover problem

    Does anyone know the location of the factory crossovers for the front door speakers? My set of JBL GTO 606c's came with crossovers and I wanted to use them. The local shop guy just told me to just use the same line that hooked up to the factory 5x7. I was unsure that there was a factory...

    Factory 6CD receiver, factory sub, aftermarket amp/components/2-ways

    Okay, I did a thorough search on this before I posted and didn't find anything that would directly answer my question. My goal for my '03 Protege5 is to retain the factory 6-CD changer, the factory spare tire sub, but change the other speakers and use an amplifier to power them. I have...

    Suggestions on Subwoofers

    ive heard some systems using MMATS and AutoTek.. i did an AutoTek install for my cousin's 4runner using a single MX-1522 15" in a .75" HDF ported box and an SS-750.1 to push the sub down at 1 ohm. it really hits--the guys at the place i bought it from totally put down Audiobahn saying they're...

    DavidNavone LOC's

    i'm looking into hooking my 4-channel amplifier with the stock headunit and after learning that i will need to use speaker-level inputs and i do not have the harness for my amplifier, i decided to look at the line output converters on davidnavone.com. i don't know whether i'll be going into some...

    P5 owners, age check-how old are you?

    Well, the first year after high school I took off to work.. I resigned in April and am now getting ready for school. My sister had it different, though. In November '01, we were shopping for a car for me--my sister would get my 240SX and I'd get the new one. I was eyeballing the Nissan Sentra...

    Speaker Sizes, Harnesses and Kits of all Mazdas

    i have a 4-channel amplifier i would like to use with the stock system. does the receiver have preamp outputs for this? or will i have to use the lines coming from the receiver as inputs for the amplifier? i was thinking maybe if i used the amplifier, i wouldn't have to raise the volume much...

    Echo that. I'm 19, my dad is paying for the car, and the mods are up to me. The same deal went with my 240SX. :D
