Quick Question

Deja_Vu969 · 08-25-2008, 05:40 PM

My HU...its a Panasonic. From what i remember it only has the wiring for 2 rear speakers and 2 front speakers. ...then the sub and an Aux.
I want to find my wiring schematics to be sure of this. But i know i can hook up the subs i want to get.
Now say i want to wire in 2 6x9s directly through the sterio...no amp. Could i splice off of the rear wires to run in 2 more speakers?...or would that be to much wattage for the radio to handle?

...I cant really think of a better way to word this. But any suggestions?

It won't be too much wattage for the stereo, but rather too low of an impedance for your headunit to handle (if you wired them in parallel). I suppose you COULD wire them in seires.... but that would bring an 8 ohm load to the headunit, so, approximately 8-9 watts rms would get to each speaker (still not a bad thing, but I don't think you'd be happy with the results).

That is, if all the speakers are 4ohm.
