Hello, can anyone explain why i have 3 connectors for radio?
With those 2 connected (brown and black), front and rear working fine. The Front sounds weird (its like low volume high tone and too much mid tone) but it works. With some play in equalizer its OK. But what is this third brown connector for? If i look closely connector for wires colour, i found blue and red, same blue and red is in the dash speaker connector. (dont have this speaker yet)
Its possible, there is solo conector for this center speaker?
If i look deeper into dashboard, those 2 brown connectors merge to one cable.
Car is 93 non bose system, Europe version. (front headlight washer, rear fog light, roof window, leather seats, rear boxes)
Head unit is Pionner DEH-200UB.
Front speakers are Hertz MPX 165.3 PRO (working weird in my opinion)
Rear speakers are ESX QUANTUM SERIES KOAX 4x6" QE-462 (working perfect)
Center speaker is on the way Visaton TW 6 NG (dont know if will working)
Connected thru black connector to pioneer.
quick update: center speaker arrive and no sounds from him with this setup.
But, if i switch those the brown connectors, its on and play. but the others, front and rear are off.
its possible to get something to merge those two brown connector to one?

Reason: more information
I found some extra wires in both doors. (not OEM cables). I was Following them to 8 pin conector and delete them. after that i found OEM doors cables, connecting them to speakers and merge those 2 brown conectors in dash to one and haleluja, its working!
Now iam thinking about this center speaker connection. I see blue with orange dot and red cable in it. Everyone here post and say another color. Usualy violet/yellow and yellow/green. I dont have any violet cable here
I need to know, which one is positive and negative. (dont have any multimetr to measure this)
Next big thing is how the colors is sorted in connector. Can anyone send me photo of this 8 pin connectors from the bottom. If i just merge those two of mine in one. It play but quite interesting way. It was like mixed. From the rear speakers it was nice all range, typicaly more bass sound
from the center speaker only high tone, but quite nice volume. constantly nice sound. Its small so mainly those high tone.
and from the doors, it was something like surround system. almost no bass sound, almost no high tones sounds but only mid range and somethimes not all mid. its was like only mono sound was play constantly and when some kind of extra sounds was in music, play those specificaly sounds louder.
dont know how to perceftly explain. Overall it was quite super. like surround sound.
next few hour i was searching more information about what colour is come from and de-pin and re-pin conect them correctly. I found some weird combo was in my connectors. left front, right front was mixed together. It was like this, both left speaker cable to negative side and both right speaker cable to positive side into connector. crazy.
I was following the manual and connect them right way. (I pray for this) now it play whole spectrum, bass, mid and high tone from all speaker but the center speaker is quite low volume. I guess its ok like that? its deffinitely difference if is connected or not.
