Pioneer TS-D1720C 6 3/4 speakers and crossover wiring.

[tewreckz 10+ year member]

Ok. I've read all the instructions and looked online. I think I'm missing something. There was no owners manual. Just instructions on the box. How do you hook up the crossover? The crossover has the following connections:

+- for Amplifier

+- for Woofer

+- for tweeter

Level Control -3db

I can't see how this hooks up to the cd deck. I'm using an amp (Pioneer GM5400t. 760watt 2 ch) and the amp has a an outlet for "Speaker Input" it also came with an an adapter for this "Speaker Input". What i'm thinking is the tweeter connects directly to the tweeter, the 6 3/4 speakers connect to the woofer and I connect the amplifier connection to the "Speaker Input" wires accordingly. So everything runs through the amp? What if I didn't want to use the amp? Any help is appreciated.

Either way you wire the amp/deck speaker output wires to the input on the passive crossovers... and depending on your musical taste you can either wire the tweeter flat or -3 if you think it's too much high output/harsh
