That's good stuff, matching up the head unit brand with the door and dash speakers. I'm running a JVC head unit to JVC dash and doors in my Dodge, and they sound amazing! Added a 700w class D monoblock to a single 12" and the car sounds unbelievable, on stock electric system!
did you set the gains on the amp property ..althought i aint never seen no aftermarket speakers look like factory but if you running a 50x4 amp blowing skar 3.5s maybe your amp or "headunits signals"clipping . in the end u mentioned needing the resistor/crossover without blowing it sounds like your amp or headunits crossovers setting is wack also ..idk just a suggestion keep bassing on G🤘🏽
Truly appreciate this video. I have a 2016 Ford Explorer with 9 interior speakers & Sony factory amp....VERY underwhelming. I'm replacing all w/OEM amps and speakers and a 12" sub. While researching, I narrowed down 3.5 speakers to two between Skar and Pioneer (best bang for buck shopping). I think the extra RMS and crossovers will be worth the money, especially after seeing this video...plus, pioneer has been doing their thing for a LONG time. I'll rock with Skar for the sub tho...thanks for sharing!
I might have to give pioneer another shot after watching this. I’m running all skar speakers in my car, 4 JL Audio subs. 4 amps. Really just 3 normally. One of the amps is reserved for my loudspeaker set up. 5.25 component front door, 4” rear door. But my first experience with pioneer speakers, I had an older set of TS-G1044R. I know they’re only 4” coaxials, but they SUCKED in my opinion. Just really pitchy no matter how much I EQ’d. I also had a set of 6x9’s. A little better but still the same issue. I love pioneers amps, and head units. That’s what I’m currently using. But i haven’t given the speakers a chance again. I think they just released a new line of speakers too. So MAYBE I’ll give them another shot lol. Love the video man
Yeah you have to cross over most all mid's and highs to be on the safe side that being said the pioneers have that and those Skars didn't so that could have been your first problem also maxing them out on head unit watts will Definity get you to that distortion plateau ,speaker killers!!!!!!! with that being said if you ran the Skars with the pioneer crossover you would probably get the same happy results LOL this is one reasons i like tapping into those Bose systems because its outputs are already crossed over elimination the need for one lol
Yeah, those are the factory Dodge joints, I saw the Chrysler logo on the magnet. I think he said he returned the Skars for refund, and shit, I would too if it blows from head unit power.
i find it hard to believe the head unit pushed enough power to blow skars unless it was just a defective set. cause max rms from a head unit is typically 45w. and factory subs are 90w@@russelldaniels1797

Good day, brother. I'm glad to see you're still putting in that work. Respect.

You replace an 8 ohm speaker with a 4 ohm. why ? Is that what killed the skar speaker ?

Rms is way more realistic Never pay attention to max watts
Man what deck u have
those literally look like factory not skar. skars dont come with mesh filters or even have those screw patterns.

plus rms on those 3.5 skars is 65 so its within spec
i think the main diff between them is how bright the tweeters come through. @@russelldaniels1797
@@revog7 distortion blows speakers. Headunit power can absolutely do this if the volume is turned up past the point of clipping
My tx35 blew after 2mins of song play
