tweets on the factory amp...

Post by BigWill »

For those of us that have the sound upgrade, you should have the 200 watt amp under the passenger seat. Can someone tell me if it is possible to hook tweets directly to that amp, since the deck is plugged into the amp anyway? Talk to me...

Hmmm.. Doesn't the premium sound system come with tweeters? I thought it did. (keep in mind I don't have my VIBE yet - I'm Canadian).

I haven't modded the Vibe yet but my home system is a sight to behold,with a lot of add ons. It is an all tube power system@ 640 watts--320 watts per channel going to 7 sets of speakers. I like my music at concert hall pitch.BTW--Welcome to our great websight. James

Just replace them with a good set of Polk or JL 6.5 XR650-CSI component speakers.On that note, does anyone know if those JL's will fit in a Vibe doors? LoL I'm kinda of partial to JL, have them in my GA (Subs too) and it kicks. Any kind of depth measurement I can go by would be cool.

Well, I finished the hook up of the tweet and it sounds sooo much better than the factory tweets. As I was tearing them apart, I noticed that the driver side tweet didn't work anyway. I thought one day I heard a little crackling sound, but since I have such a loud system, I really didn't pay it any attention. But for the most part, it is a step wayyyyyyyyyyy up from wear I was.
