iSP33D-for-J3SUS

As the title says, my front speakers work, while my rear speakers do not. I have them connected the same way as the front. Directly to the head unit. I have checked the connection and swapped in speakers that I know work and they still emit no sound.

So, I highly doubt it is the speakers.

I checked the speaker wire for creases or cuts when I first started hooking all this up and I found none. I find it odd that BOTH speakers wires would be dead and I don't feel like running new speaker wire to find out unless I have to.

Basically I have no clue why they aren't working. The fronts work fine.

Any ideas?

And I'll post the other one in a second, it has more info on my setup...

i bet its got a factory amp somewhere?

hard to see in your signature and you didn't list year or model; but if this is a S4 Luxury Coupe or GXL, there are amps built into the rear speakers. You probably have not bypassed the amps or hooked up the amp turn on lead.

88' Base, completely bypassing anything. I'm running directly from the speaker to the head unit for now and it still isn't working.

No such thing as a 88 base un the USA... probably a 88 SE, in which case you may have rear amped speakers.

You say you are running directly to the speakers from the head unit... you ran all new wires to new rear speakers???

Ok, I'm going to assume that this is an afternarket head unit and that you have already run new speaker wire to known good speakers in the rear. If all this is true, and you have a good speakers and new wire running straight off the deck, then it's either the speaker wire is crimped/cut, those 2 channels on the headunit are toast. Maybe, and this is a big maybe...if you perhaps bought something below 4 ohm speakers, and the headunit has a safety to cut off below 4 ohms.

More precise info on what you have would be good. (headunit, speakers, amplifiers, etc)
