I bought some new pioneer premier 6.5s for replacements of my blown door speakers. When I opened up the door panel, the stock speakers had four wires leading to them, but all speakers ive seen (including the ones I bought) have two wires leading to them. What are the other two wires for? I ended up splicing two of each color wire together to go to the connectors, but now Im getting a lot of static coming through. Did I do sometheing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Also has anyone had any good or bad luck with pioneer premier?

Thats what is sounds like, I only have 2 wires going to my door speakers. You might want to un-splice those wires or something might start smoking.<a href=\"http://pics.projectpredator.com/thumbnails.php?album=16\" target=\"_blank\">2003 Zinc Yellow Mustang GT</a> 1 of 701<br />ET : TBD<br />But our shenanigans are cheeky and fun!

Hmmmm... I'm not sure what those extra wires are for, I remember looking at a wiring diagram a few weeks back, and it only showed 2 wires going to the door speakers.<a href=\"http://pics.projectpredator.com/thumbnails.php?album=16\" target=\"_blank\">2003 Zinc Yellow Mustang GT</a> 1 of 701<br />ET : TBD<br />But our shenanigans are cheeky and fun!

Since splicing all four wires sounded like crap, I took turns connecting each pair of wires to the new speakers. One pair made the speakers sound like a tweeter, one like a mid. So I just left the two that sounded like a mid connected and the new speakers sound pretty good. I guess the other two were in case you want to add tweeters to your car later on. I still don't know why the factory speakers had four different connections with all four wires attached though. Maybe they had a built in crossover or something? Noone at the stereo shop I bought them from had seen anything like it. Anyway those pioneer premiers sound way better than the ripped up paper ones that were in there. Thanks for the help.
