wiring copper to copper

[h22a_4thGen]

what would happen if i wire the copper from the car to the copper to the speaker.. the copper from the car is the old wires ..im wonderin wat would happen if i cut it and just wire it to the copper on the speakers...
its for the 6x9's in the back becuz my dads alpine 6x9's dont direct fit into
the stock ones that they give

HELP ME!

that should work, but youre explanation is a little confusing, let me see if i'm understanding you right.....

you want to cut the wire for the speaker so that you're cutting off the factory plug that was there, and then you want to hook the wire dirreclty up to the speaker? yes it will work, but you need to make sure that you go positive to postive and negative to negative on all of the speakers, otherwise the sound will cancel out..

LOL yeap sorry i was confused my self.. <3 ur quick response.. im doing it right now and i was fuckin around with it lol.. but yes that is wat i meant..
and also even if it cancels out.. cant i just wire it the other way? or ?

[h22a_4thGen]

no more quick response?

yes you can reverse it. i won't actually cancel out, but make the speakers sound less than great.

So what your saying is that if I had a box with 2 subs and I reversed the polarity on one of those subs, there would be little or no sound.

I don't have a dual box right now. I highly doubt it but will try it the first chance I get.

all i know is.... it works.. took some time kuz the *** wire on the speaker are short as hell.. but all in all.. u can hear my treble from 1 1/2 blocks away
HAHAHAHA

I understand that if two identical sound waves are coming from one point source and one of those waves is 180 degrees out of phase, they will cancel. However we do not have one point source, we have two speakers. The sound waves will rarely align properly to cancel.

Also, the sound waves are not exactly the same. It is impossible. Each sound wave is being created by a different speaker, from electricity traveling through different wires, which may (or may not) be produced by seperate amplifier channels.
