the front right positives together all the front right negatives etc. It was ugly, but it worked.
Fast forward
I put a new nakamichi head unit in, and an A/D/S 6ch amp. I wired the head unit, with rca to the amp, and I wired the stock tweeters and woofers (left out the mids) in the front throught a set of crossovers. I replaced the stock rear speakers with a set of Boston components and used the boston crossovers. According to what I've read, the BMW amp has internal crossovers.
Since the factory amp is no longer in place, I figured that I'd need crossovers for all the speakers. So everything is wired up with external crossovers, but when I play the radio it sounds like I'm listening to it through a pair of headphones on the dash. the signal is there, but it has no power at all.
The amp is good, I have tested it.
From the wiring diagrams it looks like the factory speakers are wired in series/parallel, but I'm having a hard tome figuring it out.
Does it sound like I'm overlooking something, or wiring the speakers wrong?
Any help is appreciated.
