Hello Fellas,
Been a pain in my ashwole lately, I hope someone can help me out.
I have 4 6X9s for the front doors and the rear deck.
I still have the original tweeters in the dash which are at 2ohms.
Can someone recommend me a wiring diagram?
Am I trying to get to 2ohm with everything or 4 ohm? Or can I use both? What would be the best for sound quality?
Say if I were to power the 2 ohms with the factory amp, and power the front and rear with the 4 channel, how would this work? (I know about the proper harness to do it, but how would it work in terms of wiring (parallel series or parallel-series for the 4 6X9s?))
Or can I power all 6 with the channel in the back?
In the end, I want the best sound quality with what I've got.
Car: 2006 Dodge Charger 6 Speaker System
Amp: Pioneer GM-D8604 1200 Watt 4-Channel amp.
Speakers: (4x) Kicker DS693 which are 4OHMS

Welcome to the12volt!
If I were you, I'd leave the OEM tweeters out of the mix and just use the 4 Kicker speakers powered by the amplifier.
