Ditching Factory 7 channel for an aftermarket 4 channel?
« on: November 04, 2007, 12:42:56 AM »

Two audio places have listened to my system and have both told me the speakers are not getting enough power at high end, and I should consider amping them.

My problem is that the majority of affordable amps are 4 channels, and I obviously have a 7 channel amp, correct? My front doors are memphis PR's with a swivel tweeter in them, and I will probably upgrade the rears to 6x9's. What do you guys think, what do I do about loosing my door tweeters? If I have extra power to the door 2 ways I installed, will it compensate for the lack of tweeters?

Also, can I use the stock speaker wires with an after market amp?


Thoughts?
Thanks,
JIm

first off it's a 6 channel amp .... 2 for dash tweets,2 for doors, 2 for rear deck ...
Best way to replace the front doors with components then use the crossover to split the front channel and run the tweets to factory location and the doors to factory location ...
You can use the factory wiring and install the crossovers in the front lower kick panel and then direct wire the tweets from the crossovers ...
