4 wire speakers on Monsoon?

[Kevx]

I have a 2001 camaro with the Monsoon system and had a front speaker blow out on me. I bought a pair of new speakers, but when I went to remove the stock speakers I found that they have four wires on them instead of the usual two? What are the other two for, and are they still needed? Thanks! :eek:

I had the same problem. From what I was told is that two of the wire come off the amp to push the driver and the other two are off the radio and pushes the tweeter.I went to several different shops and tha's the best explanation that I was given. Hope this helps.

You need the other ones to sound correctly. Plus Monsoon speakers are rated at 2 ohms. All aftermarket are 4 ohms. So when you put in the new ones, the will sound a lot lower. I put Kenwood components and I have never looked back. One set going to the tweeter, the other set to the woofer. Sounds real good.

Thanks. Are you saying that kenwood makes speakers wfor the Monsoon system or that you switched the whole system to Kenwood. [img]graemlins/dj.gif[/img]

Kenwood does not make them specifically for Monsoon, but I work at Best Buy and decided to try it since I could take it back no problem. Hooked them up and sounded damn good. I could still have it cranked and no problem. I mounted my tweeters on top of my sail panel


Gives it a surround sound effect. Here is a link to them
