Replacement of Harmon Kardon Stereo Help
Hi new friends,
I have a 03 R52 that I just purchased with a HK sound system, and it came with a blown amp. I decided to upgrade the stereo to one with modern features (Bluetooth, XM, USB, etc) and had a question.
The Crutchfield instructions say to run new speaker wires, but I'm wondering if I can't just cut and solder new connections to the existing wires and call it good?
I know the HK system is 2ohm and 99.9% of other stereos are 4ohm so I need to replace everything, but wires don't matter do they? Why would Crutchfield say to run new wires (which seems massively time consuming).
Thanks!!
Jay
