I have a question about the Monsoon systems, and I apologize now for it not being in my Trans AM, but my Grand Prix. I was looking around in my 1996 Grand Prix SE, and found that it is prewired for a MONSOON amp. Since I need to redo the stereo system in it anyways, I want to go ahead and take advantage of it being prewired.
Before, I go any further, I want to say now that I have decided that I will either leave it stock, or put in the Monsoon system. I want to do the monsoon system, so that is what I am going to do. Don't try to take me out of it..... My mind is made up. Also, wiring is not an issue with me. I do it a lot, and it is easy for me.
Anyways. I know that I will need to add the AMP, and the door tweeters. I will also have to get the rear speakers that are for the 4 wire setup instead of the 2 wire STOCK setup.
Now for the BIG questions. Will the stock door speakers work, or are the Monsoon speakers special (I have heard that they are 10 ohm speakers, but nobody can verify this). Also, will the stock radio work, or do I need to get a Monsoon radio (The wiring is the same between the stock radio, and the monsoon radio, so I don't know if it has internal differences). I want to replace the stock AM/FM cassette radio with TREB/BASS with the newer 7band EQ CD player, but if I the monsoon one is special, then I want to get it (It cost more on Ebay, so if the only difference between the stock and the monsoon is that the monsoon radio says MONSOON on it, then I will not waste my money).
Thanks for the help.
