Help With Crossovers

[lilpee69er]

I want to amp my front speakers which at the moment are only some cheap sony ones but amping them should still be better than running them off head unit.

Any way i have been told/read that i will need a crossover for each side of the car. (one per speaker) I just dont understand how to wire them up?

Has any one got a diagram or any information that could help me wire these up?

Thanks

you wont "need" crossovers if they are not components and if they are they should have came with them.

If they did come with components then desribe them to me and ill tell you how they wire up, or pic would be awesome

you've got coaxial speakers and you cannot connect them on a crossover (there will be no use)

it should have a built-in capacitor that separates frequencies for tweeter and that's it.

buy component speakers, dont mess with these

So i cannot amp these speakers? Thats basically all i want to do.

Could someone suggest some component speakers then i am on a budget so nothing stupidly expensive.

[Scott]

yes you can still amp them

[lilpee69er]

Well could i have some help on doing that please? if it just a case of running speaker wire from amp to the speakers and discarding of the wiring coming from HU

[KAMENi]

simple as that.
from amp to speakers and disconnect the ones from HU.
