I would guess the only danger would be if you had a huge amp that could blow them out. Mine is stock and only puts out 20w each for 4 channels.

Good advice. I've missed out on a lot of parts while I was waiting for a sale.

Any idea how to identify which cars had the Dyn speakers(without tearing out the interior)?

Nothing to worry about then. I did think that a huge area like a trunk would allow the woofer to 'flex' too much and might damage it or at least distort the sound.

I see.

If I did this it would be with 2 way coaxial 6x9's. So there would be some midrange involved besides the low bass.

Makes sense. Thanks

I haven't really designed a system yet. And I'm not talking about 2 on each side, just 1 for the left channel and 1 for the right channel, 2 total. I was just wondering how the left and right channels would respond in the same enclosure. If you did it in a home system, I would think it would...

Just wondering, if you mount 2 woofers(left and right channel) on the back shelf of a car they would basically, both be using the trunk as a common speaker enclosure. Would the sound from each tend to cancel or distort each other?

Haven't heard of those. I'll keep an eye out. The B&W's we're a $3,000 option. And even used on Ebay I've seen the speakers and amp go for $2,000 used. It's quite a find!

I found a wrecked Volvo that has the premium sound system made by Bowers & Wilkins and I want to get the speakers. Does anyone have an idea of where the amp is mounted? Thanks

Ok thanks. I did bypass the cap with a small jumper wire and measured the combined impedance of the tweeter and woofer(parallel) and it dropped to 4 ohms.

So, that being the case, if it's wired in parallel with the woofer then the total impedance for the two can be all over the chart and a multimeter can't really tell you anything, right?

OK thanks!

Can anyone tell me if a capacitor on a tweeter affects it's impedance? Without any music playing the capacitor does not have continuity, so a multimeter has nothing to read.
