That is what I was wondering.Don't know for sure.
On Ford vehicles whenever you see a "Speaker/Tweeter" setup from the factory, it's almost always a speaker and a tweeter connected in parallel (2 ohm config). The "Speaker" config is usually just a mid-range speaker connected in a 4 ohm config.
Whether that setting actually changes the impedance of the channel output or not... can't say. I could certainly find out with the right equipment, but I don't own that equipment, and the local community college wouldn't let me take their gear off their property (and yes I asked).
Also wondering, because I've read 15 pages and have info overload that I can't recall, if there are any frequency changes when selecting speaker or speaker/tweeter?
Thank you for your videos. I found them informational and entertaining.
I'll be like so many other and share my plan. I am worried about the 2 ohm load on the front channels. The kicker 200.4 says it is designed for 4 ohms. That could be why some folks are getting clipping on higher volumes.
I plan on feeding the front dash speakers before the amp and feeding the kick panel speakers from the kicker. (and the rear speakers)
I'm replacing all of the speaker with JL C2 speakers of matching sizes.
Ordered a kicker 500.1 to feed a 10" downward firing shallow mount Pioneer sub in a box I have built.
I am not sure if the front speakers will 'get lost' by not being powered by the amp but I reckon I'll find out. Curious to see how the kicker DSP will compensate.
