[QUOTE="trumpet, post: 8539993, member: 628688"] Low pass filters of the most simple kind are an inductor or choke, not a capacitor. If the factory speaker setup doesn't include an inductor on the woofer then it's allowing the woofer to roll off the top naturally. [I]If[/I] that's the case, then your replacement speaker plays more high frequencies and you have a couple of options. 1) Install a crossover network that isn't matched to your woofer and tweeter and hope for the best. 2) Install a woofer pair of the same model that you took out. 3) Install new full range speakers (coaxials or components) and replace or unplug the factory tweeters. Bypass factory speaker wires in the doors. [/QUOTE]
