Converting from coaxial to component (interesting question)
Hi all, I'm in need of some advice. First let me list my system spec:
AIWA CDCMP3 Pair of 10" Sony Xplod subs wired to Sony Xplod amp Four Infinity Kappa 63.3i speaker (two in door panels and two in the rear deck) wires to Alpine amp. Quality wise I'm very satisfied with this setup, IMO it sounds better that any other setup I've heard. Only thing is it lacks imaging like component systems do. Fortunately, Infinity Kappa speakers are what I call "semi component". They come with a cross over and the tweeter and woofer actually have separate connectors. I was thinking about disconnecting the "internal" tweeters and hooking up a pair of these What do you guys think? Is it a good idea? |
that link you got up there is ONLY the tweets. where are you going to hook them up to?
IMO, just replace the coax and invest in a complete set of components. |

It's not showing the connections, but you can see the xover. Anyhow, each speaker has two connections, from the xover to the woofer and to the tweeter. I could disconnect the speakers "internal" tweets and hook the external ones to the xover. |
ahhh i see.
but i still think the best bet is too just get a new comonent set. |
What is your definition of imaging, or what youre looking for?
Its mainly going to be affected by your speaker locations and placement. If you do get the new tweeters where do you plan to install them? Or are you willing to experiment with thier placement? If you have the room, time, and budget go with kick panels. ;) |

Well, low bass is coming from the subwoofer, and midbass is good from the speakers even though they have the hole for tweeter

Originally posted by igo4bmx i understand that, but how is a woofer to play well if there is a huge cut out for tweetes? Originally posted by igo4bmx cliff note: buy a set of comps like will said |
