Connecting rear speakers to amp
Connecting rear speakers to amp
Hey guys,
I drive 98 prelude SH and i recently bought 6x9 speakers for rear.
These are my speakers:
JBL Speakers
This is my amp:
Kenwood amp
The amp is all properly hooked up. If I connect subs to it, they work fine.
I don't wanna power up rear speakers from my HU, which is aftermarket. Instead I want to connect them to my amp. Since the amp is not too powerful and cannot handle rear speakers and subs at one time, I removed my subs.
Now when i connect my rear speakers directly to amp, all I hear is base pumping from the speakers. Rear speakers don't have any vocal coming out they are only pumping base.
How can i hear vocal from rear speakers???
Can anyone help me understand what's going on here??? i thought this would be easy installation but after spending so many hrs on it and still no success I need some advice....
thnx

you've got a low pass crossover running. either on your deck or on your amp there will be a setting for crossover. you need to turn this off.
Note: some amps (mostly class D i think) will not let you turn the crossover off. if this is the case, your amp will not allow you to pass the higher frequencies through it.
Note 2: If you are running subs and your amp has a high pass crossover, turn this on for your speakers. This will prevent large amounts of bass from distorting your regular speakers, and will let the subs handle the bass. Overall you'll get more clarity at higher volumes.
