Hi,

Please help me instructing me how to hook up these Kenwood Separates (KFC-P306), I can assume that since the tweeters have the built in resistors (to block the Lows) that I can just go ahead and wire both the mids and tweeters on the same line directly from the deck (aftermarket)?

THANKS GUYS!!! posted_image

They aren't resisters but yes, it looks like the tweeter has an in-line crossover.  Wire the woofer and tweeter (with Xover) in parallel.  There is no crossover for the woofer in this set?

I just looked this set up and the woofer didn't come with a Xover network, just the tweeter.  So connect them in parallel to your amp and go for it.  https://inform3.kenwoodusa.com/manuals/kfc-p306.pdf

On the tweeter, the 2 components encased in the heat shrink tubing are VITAL to the longevity of your tweeters.  You must keep these components in the equation.
