I understand that very well. My point was, it would make no sense to configure a harness to deliver 65W to the front channels as indicated in his first post. 65W should be for rear-fill (the pods).
Yep, there sure is.
If the speaker is being powered by the OEM radio, you want speakers that play efficiently (louder) with less power. In short, that's going to be a speaker with a sensitivity rating of 90dB and above. Anything below that, you need an amplifier (IMO).
If I was shopping used, and saw a Bronco with Nexen tires mounted, it would be a hard pass. I would assume the previous owner was shopping deals on motor oil and filters, brake pads, not following maintenance intervals, etc.
I apply Griott's ceramic wax twice a year. Paint still looks new, not a single swirl mark anywhere, and I actually spend a good bit of time on trails. For maintenance, touch-less carwash, then quick detail spray. In 2 years, I think I've physically washed my Bronco maybe 4 times.
Arguably, the Everglades was the most capable Bronco off the showroom floor, but I'm sure the Bronco trim-police will be along shortly to explain how it's just a Black Diamond with a Snorkel.
Having driven both, they are nearly identical in terms of on-road comfort, especially if you don't alter the suspension geometry of the Wildtrak, and upgrade to a set of KO2's.
More time on the highway, I'd go Raptor. More time on the street, I'd go Wildtrak. Much easier to bomb around the...
If the production date on this part in particular was 2022, that is definitely unusual, and indicative of poor surface prep. Powder coat is extremely durable, and exceptionally resistant to corrosion when there is no corrosion present at the time of coating, which is why surface prep...
Was wondering why anyone would use a 12dB slope on a mid-bass driver, but I looked at the parameters, saw the FS, and understood why. However, 12dB will make phase alignment between mid-bass and subwoofer(s) very challenging.
On a side note, 200W is a lot of power for a 2" voice coil.
It shouldn't matter if he's the second, third or fourth owner, or whether not they can identify the age. As a courtesy, make it right, and as a matter of principle, they shouldn't want one of their products on someone's truck deteriorating like that.
Their response was trash, and it reminds me...
