Got this vintage Saphire radion and want to wire it to each side speaker; it was originally wired to just one speaker.
I'm thinking that spliting each of the two wires will do the trick ? If not I'd like to know. And, can this radio be wired to an amp ? Attached image(s) |

Preliminary results, I'll have to go back and pull the speaker covers later to make a direct measurment, but here is what I have at the wires terminating under the dash ( radio):
1. Car speakers 6 ohms each 2. The original speaker shown in the picture above 6 ohms at the plug and tabs And, how does one distinguish the + and negative wires ? It was many years ago that I installed the newer speakers, and as I remember I maintained the black/red correctly..... |
