How to wire Bass Blockers??

[brchd]

Well, i knew it wouldnt be long before i blew the tweeters in my Infinity plates since they are 2 ohms and my amp does 90 rms at 2 ohms. I bought a set of bass blockers from circuit city and was going to install them on my dash speakers. Heres the question....is it okay to wire them inline on the + speaker wire right before the amp or should i wire them right before the + wire at the speaker. I dont think it will matter, but i wanted to be sure. Only reason i am going to put them inline close to the amp is because i dont wanna rip my dash apart again. any input is greatly appreciated.

i'd put them at the speaker so there is less wire to fubar the signal. i dont know if it will matter tho

IIRC bass blockers generally have ~50w RMS power handling capability.

What kind of power are you running to said speakers

You can put the bass blockers anywhere on the + side leading to the speaker, it doesn't matter where. What does matter is that whether or not your bass blockers can handle that 90wrms of power. Check the packaging to confirm. I couldn't find them on the CC website.
