I had a couple of requests for this, so here it is.
A very handy tool for instantly putting drivers out of phase. You can instantly hear the changes in image position, and crossover notches from the front seat.
Parts required can be had from any electronics outlet for under $25.
You need :
4 pole/double throw relay(12 volts)some have a manual toggle eliminating the need for the battery and button
2 black, and 2 red alligator clips
1 9 volt battery, and connecter
1 momentary push-button switch.
60 ft of 16 ga speaker wire
Make the input and output leads long enough to get to the trunk from the front seat.

Forgot to mention to make sure you tape up the pairs of wires all the way, and label them, so they don't get all tangled up on you....you don't want to mix em up, or you could fry an amp.
It really is kewl to be able to switch the phase of your tweets instantly....I read somewhere on here recently, that we can only remember sound for 8 seconds. Manually switching the wires and then trying to find the same spot on the cd you were listening to is an all day job, compared to a few minutes to hook this up, and press the button.
