Expecting my Basequatch hopefully in the next week or 2, its in transit via rail and I can't track it.
Anyway, I have been reading a lot of stereo threads here and the "other forum" and there is a lot and back and forth between experts, real and imagined, and a lot of brand wars over speakers especially. I'm not really interested in that.
I have a 3000 mile trip planned at the end of next month and would just at least like to to a speaker upgrade for now, I have the money and desire for more but with limited time, I wanted to ask a few questions from those who know without starting a Forscan or audiofile argument:
I know the stock system is weak especially the speakers.
The front kick speakers and dash speakers are wired in parallel, with a bass blocker to the smaller 4" dash speakers.
Is this bass blocker on the 4" dash speakers or at the wiring union at the 6.5" kick speaker?
Do I need to install and separate bass blocker inline to the 4" dash speaker or at the union and would it even matter?
The rears are also 4". Do they have bass blockers? Do I need to install them when I upgrade JUST the speakers for now?
I want a to find a stereo shop to do the work, but the 2 I have contacted have very limited (or none) experience here in So Cal., and don't seem to even know as much as I know.
Can anyone help the couple questions above and even better is there a shop with Bronco experience around here to help me with this and hopefully more mods down the road?
Any help is appreciated.
