I think we need clarity all around on this one...

The car was manufactured with an 8-10 speaker setup, but someone
bypassed all that to power two speakers? *That doesn't sound right...
An Alpine HU with 8 speaker outputs - really? *Replaced the HU with
what? *When you say 8 speakers, do you mean components (woofer and
separate tweeter)?

In order to do any of this yourself, you're going to have to know more
about the setup than you're letting on. *Perhaps you wrote this in a
hurry, but I think more likely that you're going to need professional
assistance on this one.

I have a car with an 8 or 10 speaker setup. It seems to have had an
Alpine head unit original with eight speaker outputs (I dont know
which model)

Someone has replaced the head unit and put a gigantic Diamond Audio
amp in the trunk which seems to feed into as many as two squakers, one
in each door.

Is there anything I can do to try to ameliorate this and get the two
channel amp to power all speakers at once please? Is there such a
thing as an 8 speaker cross-over out there which i can install between
the amp and the speakers?- Hide quoted text -

Somehow my message didnt get posted on this today: The rear doors have
a woofer and lower mid range speakers. The front doors have mid range
and upper mid range speakers.(the door speakers may well have cross-
overs in them?) There is a tweeter facing upwards in the outer egdes
of the top of the dashboard. I am told there is an upper tweeter in
the head lining which makes sense as to pointing in the right
direction but to me they look like motion sensors for the alarm.

Some idiot in Queens who left his name on a sticker installed in the
glove compartment some astronomically expensive & extraordinarily
powerful DIamond Audio amp in the trunk which feeds off the outputs
of the new head unit. There are four wires coming off it which seem to
feed into the front door speakers. I spoke to him and he left me in no
doubt that he is the cause of the problem as opposed to being the
solution. Anyway the fader doesnt fade and the balance doesn't
balance. So I wondered whether I can get a crossover to take the
output from the amp and direct it in the correct quantities/
frequencies to the speakers? So may be I can put a three way crossover
in between the amp and the speakers? There are RCA plugs for cross-
overs which i assume are designed to feed out line level signal to
external mid-range amps??

Put another way, is there anyone in NYC who can make sense out of all
this please? Preferably without selling me any new units to take up
even more space in the trunk. When I look behind the head unit, I can
see lots of cut speaker wires which dont go anywhere.
