Wow, the production engineering is so far beyond what I was expecting. The more you show us about the car the more I’m impressed! Thanks John! Much appreciated! BTW, any man who knows about scrivets must be a production engineer. (Of course, I could be talking complete nonsense, here...) Anyway, cheers again John!
Good job John ! Have some issues with my rear speakers on the XKR, impossible to find same equipment nowadays (2ohms), and some electrical contact issus with the radio it self, I should take it out to check connections ... but a little afraid to take out central console to get to the radio ... Always impressed to the easy looking of watch you do, than when I try to do it, seams to me so complicated ! Take care John !
Hi Peter. Purely for the convenience of a direct swap with correct mounting and power handling characteristics that match the others. It certainly wasn't about originality.
@@ToTheGarage btw, I have a theory that a bad speaker is what killed the amp. When a speaker stops working. It either presents the amp a very low impedances or no load and thus the amp over heats until a part of the pcb fails. Amps when they die never kill speakers silently. You will hear it and certainly smell it. As a result, I would advise replacing the other old aging speakers even if they are working
This has helped me a lot. I wish you still had the x358 and made more videos for the less skilled of us 😎
The tip for the multimeter leads made me subscribe! I'm going to dig into my back door tonight!
Thanks for the sub MrFrazierNation. Happy testing👍

Production engineering was a part of my past👍.
Dude you got to get a few power tools like a screwdriver or ratchet those two things alone will save you a lot of time
Cheers John...
Always a pleasure..always informative...relaxed and common sense presentation...I agree the build quality excellent compared to some..
Thanks 👍

Thanks Henrique. The xk8 console is a very similar arrangement. Not too difficult
John greetings at Christmas, My XK8 2000 number plate in Manhattan NY Brings a positive nod
to most Brits here its BREXIT 1
Merry Christmas Philipe👍
Never mind admiring your new speaker. Check the resistance!
😁 2.5 Ohm👍
I don't know why the tweeters would be on a different channel
Why didn't you consider going with an aftermarket speaker set?

Would you have a tip for an aftermarket solution that even half-rtrdd ppl (like myself) can handle?
Can I drop my Jag over to you to fix 😜
I assume you have power going to the amp......
Yes all good on the supply side. It was the amp. And the speakers! so Im guessing the speakers failed and took out the amplifier or Vice Verca
I have to say sur, if you bye the same system as stock? you will deal with the same opslance's. thank you for the basic run down thow.🤔🙄😄
true👍. thanks
🤣🤣🤣
