[QUOTE="FaithOmitted, post: 3998883, member: 585585"] So I just installed a sub in the back of my cherokee, and it's working perfectly. Now I'm trying to install components up front, but it's giving me hell. I've got the wire all run through my interior and had everything connected, and when I turn on the HU, I get nothing. I put my ear up to the tweeter and woofer and I can hear a faint, static-y version of what's supposed to be playing, but not anywhere near the sound that I want/expect from these speakers. I re-crimped all my spade terminals on the amp and the crossovers, and that didn't do anything. I looked again at my instruction manual and it says to use at least 12 gau wire from the amp to the crossovers. I'm running 16. Could this be my problem? Does two steps up really make that much of a difference? Or is there something else wrong here? [/QUOTE]
