Speaker Wiring Help Request

DarinFred · 03-13-2009, 11:41 PM

I have a base model with the base clarion crappy speaker. I just bought some Focal Polyglass components.

So I took my interior apart and found some interesting things.

First, the woofers in the door and the tweeters are powered seperately, unless there is a cross over somewhere that I am missing.

Second, The wires the attach the the woofers in the door are purple and teal. When I tried to follow their path, they went into the rubber fitting into the door jam and into a plug. Well, there aren't purple and teal wires coming out the other side of that plug, at least on the right side. So, what color wires come from the radio to the speakers in the door? What color are the tweeter wires?

Thanks!

I assume these FOCAL Polyglass speakers don't fit into the door as a replacement for the door speakers on the base. These look very nice speakers.

The Polyglass 6.5s fit perfectly as do the tweeters up in the dash. Now I just gotta figure out the damn wiring!

Are these Polyglass made speakers....top notch. Sorry, I have never heard of them. I was set to by some Boston Accustics, but if these are a better speaker then I will start looking into this make, comments?

Will you powering the speakers up a bit with an external amp connected to the base system or the bose system?
