Audio upgrade part 2

[Rouseman]

Heres some of the new stuff i got for my alero

Alpine type R 6X9s (not pictured)

Alpine type S 4x6s front doors

Some amp and sub deal i found on sonicelectronix.com
2 12s with a 250 watt rms amp (to be upgraded later)

i also have i pioneer premiere head unit installed.

Iam unsure on my tweeter options tho and input would be great.

I have a friend with the same sub/amp combo in her trail blazer sounds good even from a block and a half away. she told me it was the best $220 she'd spent

don't bother with tweeters, until you get full components + amp for the fronts.

then go 5.25" components w/ tweeters. its day and night better than the 4x6s

or you could put 6 6.5s in the front doors! :banghead: :banghead:

well i installed everything and i cant get power to the amp!! Now ive done many installs before and iam not new to this stuff. I ran the power wire through a gromit i found near the break pedal. but for some reason the wire has no power through any part of it. i have it tied right into the positive post. Any ideas????

( i also thought it might be the signal wire but i wierd it into the igniton wire to be sure and still nothing)

[cherrington17]

multimeter, test both lines for 12V. if both have power, then your amp is bad.

[Rouseman]

i did. There is no power in the line. i even removed the fuse to see if it would spark and nothing. my terminals are kinda coroded tho..but i still should get SOME power.

[cherrington17]

depends on how corroded. and are you just jamming the wire into the terminal, or are you using a proper connector for that type of socket?

[Rouseman]

Ok well i cleaned the terminals and now were good lol. And of corse i used the proper connections. what kind of brute simply mashes a connector onto a terminal? tis absured..lol:lol:
