[QUOTE="J.J., post: 4129808, member: 587051"] I have 3 questions below, and I need some pointers on my wiring. Any help or recommendations appreciated. Thanks in advance! 1st: I'm using 2 David Navone LOCs Here's my wiring set-up (I think): HU _____X--------------- LOC (mounted on amp rack in hatch) === AMP --- Component Xover (also mounted on amp rack in hatch) ------------------ Into door and connect to mids/highs Key: X = splice into front factory wires === = RCA patch cables ------ = New 16G speaker wire (exception: X to LOC will be 18 guage wire) ____ = factory wiring What do you think? 2nd: I want to maximize the power to my comps and I'm totally confused with the wiring involved. Are you actually powering the xovers? Should I wire the xovers in parallel and run regular wiring to comps (wire as they are meant to be), or do you wire the mid and high as if they were two subs, and if so, how do you connect them to the xover? How do I run my comps in parallel and use the xovers provided with the comps, that's the question? HELP, I would like to run my wire today. 3rd: Should my remote wire run with my 4 guage power wire or on the opposite side of the car with the LOC and speaker wire? Should I seperate the Speaker wire and LOC wire? Thanks, JJ [/QUOTE]
