Passenger side Speaker Help
My girlfriend realized today that both the front and rear passenger side speakers in my 2000 xlt werent working, after removing my head unit and checking connections i put it back together to hear the drivers side sounding worse than the start and the passenger side speakers still not working. I bought 2 6x8 sony speakers to try tomorrow but if that doesnt work im at a loss. Any reason both passenger side speakers would blow at the same time? Anything i can do to fix it?

Re: Passenger side Speaker Help
If they are stock speakers, need replaced anyway, but not with Sony speakers.
Unlikely both speakers would blow at once. Gotta be wiring.

After checking all the connections and redoing a botched wiring job only the front speaker is out and everything else sounds good, so before I replace the speakers why shouldn't I put these Sony's in?

In car audio, Sony means crap

Re: Passenger side Speaker Help
Can't go wrong with Hertz. There's a lot of decent choices. What's your budget? Are you into quality or loudness?

Well I'm 16 without a job if that tells you anything, and more quality than loud.

Plenty of power (using a voltage meter) until you reach this connection under the kick panel then zilch, would replacement work?

Don't waste your time replacing it. Just bypass the 2 speaker wires
