i put in a set of alpine 170's in the sail panels cause the factory ones were blown. now only bass comes from the speakers and its not very stong. anyone know what i could have done wrong?

Were there 4 wires that went to your stock speakers?

I thought the sail panel speakers only received bass from the amp.

The sail panel speakers in the T/A are being low passed at less than 1kHz.
You put a speaker that probably doesn't produce much bass into a location in the T/A that only produces bass. Not going to work very well.

The Monsoon in the TA subs have 4 wires for the sail panel speakers. These speakers are the "subs" in the system. The "subs" are dvc woofers.

The vert's have full range speakers back there, don't they? If he's talking about a vert, I can understand his complaint.
