Re: Where is the Amp? (more about stereo) (archive)

Not sure if it is the same location as the coupe/sedan. But if it is, it should be in the trunk. Its mounted on the left side behind the liner, right in front of the rear shock mount. You have to pull the lining out to get to it.

Email me if you ever replace the stock amp with an aftermarket one. I wanna hear how it goes...

goodluck~

The car is a convertible with 10 spearkers. There is none in the back but instead they are 4 on the SIDES of the back seat.

I bought some MB Quart PSC213 for the back and some MB Quart 325.21 for the front. There is 2 sets of crossovers (4 total). Here is the situation now. I can't find an amp. I looked in the back but there is convertible motor. I also looked on the part CD and I don't see it.
1- Is there an amp in the convertible?
If I am right and there is no amp in the convertible then I could use the crossover for the PSC213 because they have 2 IN and 2 OUT.
the crossover for the 325.21 though have only 1 IN and 3 OUT(kicker, door midrange and door tweeter).

2- If there is no amp, How should I wire the front crossover??

Plan B (I need some help here too)
If I get/need an amp
3- Should I still use those MB crossover or should I get an amp without built-in crossover? (suggestion for 5 channel amp appreciated pls)

If I get an amp might as well be a 5 chan amp, I will add a sub in the future.
4-Do they make 5 chan amp without crossover?

Today, I installed the speakers without the crossover. It sounds bad. One also sounds like its blown(constantly squeaks and little bass). It must be because I shoot 12 watt in a 40watts (rms.) to 100watts speaker. I won't use the system until I solve the situation.

Any help is appreciated, thanks guys
