hatch speakers problem So I got new speakers in the doors, sails and hatch. And now the hatch speakers are making no sound. They have bass for a little 4 inch speakers but not voice what so ever. Does anyone know why why

Make sure all your wires are hooked up. Might have to pull out the head unit and check there too. Also make sure they are on the right pos and neg. Sometimes that matters. Asides that if you did a reg. swap it shouldnt have cahnged anything.

another guy posted on here that after he changed out all of his speakers that his new 6" kicker subs weren't hitting, and there was another guy with a similar problem to yours..I think the factory amp in the f-bodies is really sensative
but yes as mentioned above it could be a polarity issue (+ and -), but not likely due to the issue...try a different speaker, or try disconnecting your fronts and see if it changes...if it does i'd recommend getting a small 4 ch amp for your fronts and subs, something like an Alpine MRP-F300 retails at $200 but sells for less than $150 all day long, has a built in Hi to low converter, and only requires a $40 8 guage amp kit or a 4 guage is better for an extra $20ish, no rca's or trigger wire necessary..with the speaker level input it has auto turn on...this will improve sound quality and clarity dramatically as well if gain's are set up correctly
the amp wires up, as far as audio signal, between the factory amp and the speakers
