Speaker Amp configuration help
Hello
I have a pioneer Avic 5200
Amp Precision power A600/4
rms power 320W min 2ohms unbridged 4ohms bridged
high pass and low pass crossovers are 30-4000hz
rms power at 4ohms is 50w x 4 channels
rms power at 2ohms is 80w x 4 channels
bridged rms is 150w x 2 channels
I have (4) 4x6 3way speakers 2 in the dash and 2 in the corners behind my head
They are Pioneer TS-A4676R 200w 30w RMS 35-40hz 4ohms
I have (2) 6x9 3way Speakers behind the seats in the bottom corners
They are Pioneer TS-A6966R 420w 60w RMS 28-36 HZ 4ohms
I have (2) 6.5" round door speakers
They are Pioneer TS-A1675R 320W 50W RMS 32-40hz 4ohms
I would Like to know how You would wire this combination.
I also have an old school 2 channel 200w amp I could use if need be but I would rather not if possible.
Thanks for your help as I have not done any car audio since High school and I am 55 yrs old
I did not mention my vehicle is a 1990 chevy Silverado standard cab

ok, simplest way is to wire front together (door and dash), and rear speakers (6x9s and 4x6s) together so that you can keep your fading capability, these would be run in parallel...so left door/dash positive (+) terminals to front left + amp terminal, negative to - term and the same for the right side and the rears. This will give you 80x4 rms so each speaker will see approx. 40 watts each. This will allow for fading front/rear and balance left/right. If you have cross overs on the amp, you can set the front to high pass around 80-100 hz to prevent damage to the smaller front speakers from bass, and leave the cross over for the rears at about 40hz or leave them full range (no cross over)..the 6x9s should be ok...the 4x6s in the rear may need some passive caps to prevent low bass from distorting/damaging them (400 micro farad non polarized electrolytic capacitor wired in series will do the trick (about 100 hz at 6db/octave high pass filter). There are obviously other, more fancy options, but assuming you want to use what you have...this is the easiest.

Next I would wire 6.5" front door speakers and rear 6x9's to the Precision Power 4 channel amp. Wire the front outputs of the amp to the 6.5's in the doors and use the on board crossover and set it to high pass at a point of 80hz. Then wire the rear 6x9's to the rear output of the amp and set the rear channel to full range. It would be best if you could put the 6x9's in as large enclosure as you can. The larger the better will give you better bass output. Hopefully this info helps you.
