You can just hook them up to your existing wires and existing receiver. They don't have to have a external amp

Yes you can hook these speakes up to previous car wire set. no need for an amp

they need to be connected to the speaker output on your power amp or receiver with the correct type of wire

yes as long as your not adding an amplifier for a subwoofer otherwise you would need to run a wire for amp power.. it will hook up fine to a standard car stereo speakers as it has 4x80watt outputs.

No I do not have a amp hook up to this speakers I have the OEM radio on my car and sound perfect.

Connect the preamp to the power amp with RCAs or XLRs and connect your speakers to the power amp with bananas or wire

I believe they are the most efficient car speakers made. I run mine without an amp. Why don't you try this first? You can always add an amp later.

Yes, you will need speaker wires. I hooked up monster cables. These are great speakers!

You dont, but definitely sounds better with a clean 50 watt or high per channel amp. I have them in 2 cars one right off the head unit and the other off an alpine 4 X 50 watt amp.

This is a set of UNPOWERED speakers. You will need an amplifier to power them and the amplifier you choose and what adapters you have will determine what kind of audio source you can hook up to.

An amp.is probably required to power the speakers if their watt rating is high. If the wire is RCA to bear end speaker you could give it a try directly to the speakers. If it's RCA to RCA I wouldn't cut the end of the wire for speaker connection.

You can used them on a normal stock radio, they have inputs that you can splice into your cars back speaker wires. I would suggest buying a line converter; which is relatively cheap (under $15) which converts the wire outputs to RCA cables that you can plug right into the amp. The quality of these subs is fantastic; I would recommend them to anyone.

Ye you need an amp, they are not powered speakers. They are passive speakers as indicated by the "P" in "B2030P" which means you need an amp to power them.

you dont need any extra wire you just use the wire already in the car, you can get connectors to make your life easier, but mostly you want an amp for them

You will need a receiver that will power the speakers. Also an RCA cable for the Subwoofer input.

This amplifier has speaker level inputs, so to make it easier just tap into your stock head unit front and rear speaker wires and run it to the amplifier, the amplifier comes with a speaker wire input connector with bare wires at the other end to make the connection. You could also get a hi low converter to convert the speaker level output from your head unit to low voltage output, and connect rca`s to that and run the rca`s back to the amplifier. Once your speaker level inputs/rca`s are connected to the amplifier, you would need to run 14 - 16 gauge speaker wire from the amp to each of your 4 speakers. Now your amp needs power, I`d recommend a 4 gauge wiring kit(in case you want to upgrade in the future and for headroom), with a maximum fuse rating of 60 amps, with fuse connected not more than 30cm from the battery. Make a proper ground connection as close as possible to the amplifier. With a stock head unit, you probably won`t have a remote turn on lead, so you would have to run a wire from your car ignition switch, some people tap into the cigarette lighter, just ensure that the wire you tap into is 0 volts when the car is switched off and 12 volts when the car`s ignition is switched on.

Your car's stereo receiver should provide enough amplification for these speakers. But if you want more, you can install an additional amplifier later.

Absolutely, just Google how to set up the wires and you'll be fine. I had this powering for four speakers and two 6x9s it sounded like the club was in my car.
