Question had a crazy idea in my sleep...

a few monthes ago i replaced my speakers in my 1995 vanden plas because they werent working mostlikly because they had been sitting in the heat in palm springs. Anyways, i replaced the speakers with a coxal (tweeter mounted on speaker) system. the old tweeters are still in the car. i didnt hook them up to the reciver however. the other night i had a dream i hooked up the old tweeters in the car and they sounded fine. what is the likleyhood that the speakers were fried but not the tweeters? is there a way to tell besides just hooking them up and trying? i took a look at one of the tweeters and it appeared to be in much better shape then the speakers were. thoughts?

I would say it is highly likely the tweeters are fine - totally different design and definitely look more durable in design. Hook em up!

ok so to hook up the tweeters to the reciver do i just hook up the wire like: front left speaker to front left tweet, front right speaker to front right tweeter, ect. ? because i have been told i need an amp to do this but before on the stock deck they were just hooked up right to the deck.
