I recently bought a Pioneer deh-p3600 head unit and 4 6.5" Infinity
Reference 2-way speakers to upgrade my sound. I have a 93 Grand
Cherokee limited, without the infinity system. Here is the problem:
there are tweeters in the dash, but I'm not sure that they're working
so well. Rather than replacing them, I was thinking of just taking
them out altogether. Is there a crossover somewhere that I'll have to
find?? I want to make sure that the high-end of the sound reaches my
new Infinities.
My other question is this: the Pioneer receiver has all kinds of
equalizing and shaping features for the sound (EEQ, SFEQ, etc.), and
so far, this has done nothing but confuse me. Is it better to focus
bass in the back and treble up front even when they're the same
speakers? Anyway, I'm a bit of a newbie to this, and I want to make
the very best of what I've got. Any suggestions?

Check under the back seat (on the driver's side) for a factory amplifier.
I've never seen a Grand Cherokee that had tweeters and DIDN'T have the
Infinity system. It's possible that the previous owner swapped the radio
from the 'Infinity' unit to a 'normal' factory radio, which in fact are the
same!

The Infinity-equipped vehicles have crossovers built into the Infinity
amplifier. If you vehicle has the tweeters and no amp, then someone probably
added them and connected them to the door speaker wires somewhere. In any
case, you can replace them with aftermarket tweeters and just run the wire
to the kick panel, where you'll install the crossovers at the door speaker
wires...
