    g/f 02 cavalier sounds bad

    It's amazing how many answers you can get for a problem. OK, because I am afraid of blowing the stock speakers i am going to leave those hooked up as is for now. I am going to run new speaker wire for the 6x9 pioneers so they will be getting all the frequencies they should be, instead of just...

    g/f 02 cavalier sounds bad

    It took me 3 reads of this sections to understand what you were saying. Anyway, there are 4 'tabs' but with the stock speakers there are also 4 wires that run to each speaker. 2 wires go to the tweeter and 2 wires go to the mid. The tabs do not connect to each other. The stock plug has 4...

    lights out on faceplate

    When i bought my cda-9833, the blue and green kept going out for those four buttons. I had ordered from crutchfield and they sent me a new replacement radio. I simply changed the faceplate and it worked correctly. It seems to me (I am NOT an electrition) that the light just had a loose...

    g/f 02 cavalier sounds bad

    My g/f bought a 02 cavalier and decided she wanted some better audio. I had bought her a head unit for her b-day (pioneer dfh-7600mp) then added a cheap 10" (jenson) sub with a cheap amp. She then decided her stock speakers sucked so for christmas my parents got her some pioneer 6x9 3-way 220...

    Running speaker wire

    It shouldn't make a difference. Speaker wire isn't as susceptible to interference and also does not put out enough power to interfere with the rca's. BTW, I believe this has been posted before and can be found by searching.

    sound deadening tips given & wanted

    Update: I have applied the silicone to the trunk braces and also put the polyfil in the holes in the trunk braces. This has stopped some vibrations I had previously and could not figure out where they were coming from. I also took some weatherstrip closed cell foam and applied it to the...
