[QUOTE="ultimate157, post: 2585460, member: 566638"] When you put those wires together, you are bridging the input from the amp(s), therefore effectively running the mid and high inputs at half their impedance. With a factory system, that impedance requirement could be as high as 8 ohms, and with the bridged wiring you are pulling 2 ohms from each wire. Your best bet is to bypass the factory system and add your own wiring from an aftermarket amp. [/QUOTE]
