Changing all speaker for JL Audio - what about the dash tweeters?

[bigrez]

Alright all

I took off the speaker grilles on my 182 to see a 5.25" speaker. I am quite into my ICE and have a large personal stash of JL, Diamond, Soundstream ICE.

I realised I have two sets of new JL TR 5.25" coaxials in stock, so ordered the Clio speaker adapters as I don't like cutting plugs off.

My thoughts are these; typically I would run a set of components but I can't be too fussed this time and don't plan an amp or anything.

I was wondering of the impact in me running the coaxials in the front BUT the dash tweeters still connected? I could disconnect them if I need to, but was wondering how bright the front will sound? I will be fitting the JL TR 2 way coaxial into the doors and rear cards.

Anyone fitted coaxials and still kept the front tweeter?

Advice appreciated!

can you disable the co-ax tweeters? as i guess you are like most humans and don't have ears in your knees lol

Lol no not really you can't.

Plus they are JL Audio; would rather disconnect the Renault stuff!

 

[Dink]

normally they are just soldered onto the tabs of the speaker so you'd only be desoldering and can easily be put back

I had (admitedly only crappy pioneer ones) coaxials in the doors and Factory tweeters on the dash and the sound was proper harsh.

I'd rather not mess with them chaps

OK so it seems maybe I disconnect the dash tweets OR put some JL 5.25" components in, which I am reluctant to do without the use of an amp or a proper headunit.

Is it easy to disconnect the dash tweets?

 

[Dink]

yeah they just unplug once you have taken the dash top off

Thanks buddy

Guess its coaxials all round!

Hope they sound better lol
