Rookie System Installermistermatrix24 09-21-2009, 12:51 AM okay so i bought a nice 1700watt lightning audio system and am in the process of installing it. it all seems very straight forward and installation isnt exactly what my question is regarding. i have a few small ones. so Number 1: my system has two amps,a B4.250.2 and a B4.320.4 now the 320 has 4 places to connect speaker wires fronts LR and rears LR and the 250 has 1 Left and Right. my car has 6 speakers. (4) 6.5" and (2) 4". should i wire the 6.5" speakers to the 320 and the 4" speakers to the 250. that makes sense but im not sure if thats the way it should be done. Number 2: the 6.5" speakers in my front doors are still stock and i dont have replacements for them at the moment. im looking at some online and found a good deal on a set of 3-way speakers. but the ones im installing now in the back are 2-way. will this cause a problem or is it fine to install different speakers in the same system? Thanks, Thomas PaulD 09-21-2009, 06:44 AM everything sounds like it will be ok, but it may be difficult to tune with all those speakers mistermatrix24 09-21-2009, 10:59 AM yeah. but using 3-way speakers with the 2-way's wont cause problems tho right? Big_red16424 09-21-2009, 12:29 PM yeah. but using 3-way speakers with the 2-way's wont cause problems tho right? in reference to what? If you have a 4 channel amplifier and a 2 channel amp. Hook 4 speakers up to one, hook 2 speakers up to another. Start tuning them by using low volume on the amps with 50% on the head unit to start with. Then turn up the amps independently until you reach equilibrium. adjust your bass boost accordingly. I still do not understand your question in reference to *using two way speakers with 3 way speakers* 3 way speakers are, bass, mids, highs, 2 way speakers are, either, mids, highs or bass, highs mistermatrix24 09-21-2009, 12:52 PM thank you that helps a lot. and what i mean is that right now i have (4) 2-way Speakers hooked up to the 4 channel amp. and im asking if i replace (2) of those speakers with a pair of 3-way speakers will there be a problem. PaulD 09-21-2009, 06:43 PM a coaxial just has one tweeter, a triax (3-way) has two. It won't effect the sound much as far as balance, maybe the 3-way will be a little brighter badluck4us 09-22-2009, 12:32 PM Do you have a SUV or something? Thats a lot of speakers lol. If you tune everything the right way, you really shouldnt be able to tell. Its not a problem at all. Good Luck!

As long as the OHM load is identical to the 2way speakers you'll be just cherry :p vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
