2001 Convrt. Speaker Upgrades + Infinity BassLink

I am having problems with my stereo upgrades. I installed the
following speakers: (1) Infinity (# 6810cs) Component 6 X 8 in the
front doors (mid-bass speakers), with separate tweeters; (2)
Infinity (# 6022 cs) 6 1/2" round speakers (mid-bass) in the rear
seat panels; (3) Pioneer (# TS-A 878)3 1/2" 2-way in the rear
seat "tweeters" area; (4) Infinity Basslink 200 watt powered, 10"
sub woofer.

When I play at 1/2 volume, the stock amps cut out after about 15
seconds. I have isolated the speakers (ie, left front, right front,
left rear, right rear) and each cuts out in the same time period.
Whether I have the BassLink connected or not, the other
speakers cut out. The Basslink, when connected, is hooked to the
output side of the right stock amp (which powers the rear seat
panel speakers).

The stock subs are 8 ohms. My new speakers are: front 4 ohms;
rear 2 ohms.

Can anyone help me find a solution to this? Go back to the stock
speakers? Add aftermarket amps to replace the stock ones?
(maybe two Infinity 7521a's? or 2 MTX XT Thunder 702X?) (or
maybe, one Infinity 7541a? or MTX XT Thunder 704X?)

Or ?? Thank you.

Yeah dropping in an aftermarket amp will be your best solution. The problem is with the voltage (5v i believe) and ohms of the stock amps, they only work well with teh stock speakers.

 

yeah i dont even know where to find 8 ohm speakers, your best bet is to listen to scott and get new amps, its not the speakers, the only other option would be to try a capacitor to store power but that wouldnt do much good since the amp cant handle the 12-14.4 volts that the capacitor would provide
