Hello Everyone This is my first time visiting this site and from what ive seen so far.. its awesome.. so many people with lengthy knowledge on Audio.. like ide expect that in an audio forum right? lol.. well on to my delima: This is the first time ive ever delt with anything anywhere near audio, and being my first time trying to wire anything, this installation manual is like looking at a big blob of nothingness.. so far ive understood everything until the part where it tells me to hook the power cord (2) up to the speakers,
My Scion xB has a 6 speaker sound system from the factory, 2 on the top dash, 2 at the front kickpanels/door, and the other 2 in the back. The AVH-P7500DVD has a 5.1 surround sound and it keeps talking about a center speaker and i dont have 1, also the diagram only shows hooking up to a 4 speaker system and then the sub/center. Is there a way for me to hook up the front 4 speakers (located in the top dash and kick panels/door) to the wires shown on the diagram that are ment for only the 2 fronts? or would that make my surround sound off? In around a month or 2 im also going to get 2x 12" kicker solo baric L7's with a 1200.1 amp. which i will then need 2 know how to hook that up also.. lol.. im sorry that this is really confusing.. it is for me also, if u have any questions about .. my questions , just ask , maybe i can re-word it to be better understood.. (is not very good on audio lingo) Thanks for any help and/or replys, Nice to be part of the forums.. what little part i make of it.. hope to hear from yall (<-- yea im a hick)

if you can.....
email me the manual for the dvd player and the amp i'll help you decipher it and get it into your car i'll see if i can find a scion wiring diagram....your front speakers are probably wired together someplace further down the wiring harness so you shouldn't need to worry about finding more that 4 wires for all 4 front speakers i'd suggest going to your local circuit city...tweer etc. or car stereo shop and getting a metra wiring harness adaptor so you don't have to cut and splice the scion's wiring...or at the very least keep the splicing to a minimum
without adding a center channel into the car you won't be able to utilize the center channel output on the dvd player.....
I have an almost 10 year background as an installer and have done a few pretty wild 5.1 systems in cars and tons of mild to wild audio systems it's a ton O' fun 😀
sounds like you're off to a good start for your systememail me with the wiring info....scan it... online manual....what ever you can find and send it on over
