Re: Switched stock speakers There is a JL audio dealer in nashville i payed $130 for both.They are 4 ohm speakers,I cut the old wires off of my old speakers and i used the factory wires and the plug-in, that connects the two together.I used both ends cuz there is two positive and two negative terminals..Did i do something wrong? They sound alot cleaner but dont seem to hit as hard as the stock ones is it because they need more power???
