[QUOTE="Nick7, post: 3138706, member: 578353"] Hi all, I was planning at first to build and put only sub into my car, but I think replacing all speakers, and having an amplifier for them might be better idea. However, main 'obstacle' is HU, which I want to keep original builtin due to controls on steering wheel, and LCD display. Problem is this HU has only high outputs. So, my plan is to do following: Splice wires near HU and pull then near center console where I can easily fit 2xLOC's. One for rear will also have 'Y' connector, as it will be used for sub. For that I plan to use passive crossover with frequency and level adjuster (something like [URL="http://www.dobar-zvuk.hr/auto_ak/REGENT/ostalo/regulator_basa.htm"]this[/URL]). From there all RCA signals go to back of car (via middle section) to 2x amplifiers - one for sub one for for 4x speakers in doors. Power cable goes over left side. Back from amplifier wires go back to rear&front doors for speakers. Basically this is idea how I plan to wire all - does that sound OK, or did I miss something? Also, if anyone has any experience - do LOC's have any impact on sound quality? I know I could have better sound quality with some nice HU, but I want to keep original one due to it's funcionalities.
