Help with speakers? - Smart Car of America Forums : Smart Car Forum

Hello Smartie,
I used to have radio 9 in my car. I upgraded to Pioneer F90bt a couple of month ago. I just receive my speakers Polk DB6501 today (2 woofer, 2 tweeter, and 2 crossover). I installed everything, according to Cubefx and Evilution instruction. Everything on the driver side work perfectly, the passenger side seem kind of weak (bass is very weak as well as tweeter). What could be the problem? I checked the wires and everything seem to be correct (orange+, orange-brown -)

Hmm... If I were you I'd switch the wires around anyways and test it then. Or test the wires to double check which is positive and which is negative.

I did that a couple of time. When I switch the wire back, it give static. So I assume that is the right connection. The driver side is also similar ( green +, green with stripe -)

Try switching the speakers around.

are the speakers out of phase. fade it to the left then right. if you get good bass then they are out of phase. does the crossover have a +0db and +3db for the tweet. make sure one side is not set to +3 and the other to +0 the +3 tweet will be much louder then the other. just a thought. troubleshooting with out hearing it is kinda hard
