Stumped by double crossovers!
Has anyone ever wired up front componant speakers that come with 2 crossovers? I'm pretty simple at the best of times but this really has me stumped?

What speakers and how do you mean 2 crossovers, 2 total or two per channel?

We bought some focal componant speakers and they come with 2 crossovers per side like this, the only way I can see to do it is by wiring the tweeter to the tweeter, the speaker to the speaker (obviously) but what do I do with the others do I bridge them power to power and earth to earth? I'm so confused I've never seen 2 per side before??

One is a hi pass filter for the tweeter (T- & T+), the other is a low pass filter for the woofer (W- & W+)
Just split the speaker wire in the door into 2 with 1 going to the tweeter filter & the other going to the woofer filter

I have two wires for the tweeter +/- and two wires for the speaker +/- at the moment, where do the wires come from for the input?

Yes going in the doors. There is speaker and tweeter already there standard.
I think I get it now, plug the wires from the standard tweeter into the input +/- on the tweeter crossover New tweeter wires go into tweeter +/- in the tweeter crossover Plug the wires that would normally go to the speaker into the input +/- on the crossover Run new wires from speaker itself to speaker +/- on the other crossover box If that makes any sense what so ever I'll be very surprised but I think I finally get it!!! Thanks for trying to help me

That sounds about right, the HP filter for the OE tweeters is built into the tweeter unit so the input feed is full range.
