6x9 problem

[capwagonwithwires 0]

i have a 94 caprice wagon and had purchased infinity693.7i 6x9's for the rear. they work fine up until i actually go to screw them in. they actually seem to be grounding themselves out on the bracket where the speaker goes. i checked all the wires and nothing is wrong as far as i can tell. i think it may just be a defective speaker. any input/help would be greatly appreciated.

do what it takes to prevent the grounding out. use unsulated spades. tape the terminals after the wires are connected. make sure the tinsils cant touch anything ect ect

more than likely the terminal bar is catching ground through the basket. Kicker had a run of DS series a few years ago with this problem

thanks for the responses. looks like i'm gonna try and get them replaced under warranty then. i may end up just getting different speakers altogether.

you should try what i suggested first. every speaker can and will ground out if not installed properly. last thing you need is to use up ur warranty or spend money on speakers that will do the exact same thing.
