    adding tweeters - how to power

    Thanks for the replies. I have the gain set about 55% for the front channel. I've tried to read on this, but not sure I found what I was looking for. I'll try adding more gain to the front and see if I realize more high. The tweets are not removable on this pair of 6.5s. But, you're saying to...

    adding tweeters - how to power

    I have not adjusted the EQ, and this may be my issue. I recently unplugged the ground and this would have the affect of resetting the highs - to a degree. This will be my step #1 . Coax. and the placement would be factory location, which limits my options quite a bit. Would enough reflection...

    adding tweeters - how to power

    Thanks for your reply. That's a very subjective question,"why do you want more tweeters." Well, I want more high than what I currently produce. Your tone begs a question by suggesting that maybe I don't need more highs. By adding the amp and basslink recently I gained more volume and bottom end...

    adding tweeters - how to power

    My head unit has 3 preouts. Two run to my 4 channel Alpine amp which powers two door and two rear speakers. The third preout runs to the basslink. If I add another amp to power the tweeters - dash or A-pillar not sure yet, how do I wire the 'tweeter' amp? Not purchased yet so we have options...

    After installation of the new battery terminal clamp. I'm very happy with this clamp. Each wire installed seamlessly. Another view. Pic of the driver door after rewiring the speaker. this is the one requiring rotating to miss the metal door frame. Alpine 138BT installed

    This would be a view of the backseat and trunk area as I re-routed the cables. You can see the BassLink mounted on a board the the trunk. Here is a view of the Apline MRP-F300. This last view is the view of the installation of the power wire to the battery. Updated image coming of the new...

    Fixed my protect mode problem. The passenger side speaker was turned just so that the speaker toched the door's frame. A half inch twist counter clockwise fixed this. Sound back to normal. I have a few pics to post as soon as I transfer them.

    Faded speakers to the front. Amp switches to protect a little over halfway. Reaches 100% when switched to rear. I had an issue rerouting the passenger speaker wire. I will rewire that speaker and see if this clears the protect mode issue.

    2002 Honda Accord build log

    I completed a few tasks today. Mainly, I rerouted my power wire, relocated all speaker wires to left side, all power to the right. Routed wires behind the molding in the backseat and into the trunk. Looks nice. and all is hidden. Ran new remote wire. Took pics of a few trouble spots that I over...

    Replaced my two year old Pioneer Premier HU after the volume became shotty. Installed Alpine 138BT. Added Alpine MRP-F300 4 channel amp to existing 6.5 JL Audio door speakers and Memphis Audio 6x9s. Added an Infinity BassLink 10" powered sub. Very happy with all of the equipment. The Memphis...
