Roford Fosgate p162s wiring

Nothing necessarily wrong with changing the wire size. As far as the speakers sounding like crap goes, what you put in is what you get out. Feed it a crappy clipped signal and that is what they will play. Regardless of the wattage claim on the speakers, if you are not using a amplifier and are still using the cd player to drive the speakers, don't look for any major gains in tonal response until you add a dedicated amplifier. Your cd player struggles to produce between 14-18 w rms of power (not the 50 or 60w x 4 it may claim). You need more power to bring those speakers to life.Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.
