if you are installing 4 speakers, do you need to buy 4 of these?

Just one will do. In addition to the power wires, illumination, etc... it has four pairs of colored wires (purple, green, white, and gray) for the speakers that will connect your new head unit's harness into the factory harness. To be sure, this harness is intended to be connected to the wiring harness that comes with any new aftermarket car stereo and then plugs directly into your factory stereo harness. That way you keep your factory harness intact. Hope this helps!

No you don't. This metra wires are made for your car speakers, if your car comes from factory with 4 speakers, your original harness is already ready with the connections and this harness is just going to adapt to you new stereo.

I don't believe so, my installation involved 4 speakers and I only used one harness

No, you only need one. Please check out this video for more detail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Fs6v3rvuuk

They are for a subwoofer, so you should only need one for each sub. I have two subs so I have two. My Yamaha reciever also has outputs for two sub's.

Simply adding two more speakers to your system does not make it a 7.1. You risk burning up the amplifier by having speakers with mismatched impendences. Upgrading your speakers is great but speaker impedances have to match and your amp has to say it can handle that load. Far more bad scenarios then good for what you are looking to do.

Honestly, probably not. You might get a tiny tiny bit more bass due to bigger speakers but you most likely won't notice that. I would just get these, there is no real reason to get 4 way speakers. At that point you may as well go for a full component setup.

You will need to get them separately, be warned these speakers are huge. The magnet is gigantic and if space is an issue pass on these. If not, get them you will not be disappointed!

I have a lot head room have using 2 12" pyle speakers. From the other comments you probably don't want to try all 4.

Thanks, do you use 301's for all 4 surround speakers? Seems to me the back surround speakers do not need to be high quality.

You just need one. There is a second jack in the back in case you want to hook up a second set of speakers.

This is for a single pair of speakers. If you wanted 4 speakers you would need two of these. I'm not sure how well two would play together but I'm guessing it would work fine. I truly do love my set, they work well and saved me from having to run wires across the room.

Not sure if I understand the question fully but if you are looking to use 4 speakers on a 4 channel receiver, you will do fine. If you decide to place 4 speakers on a 2 channel receiver or amp, it will work but the power and quality are much reduced.

You need Receiver/Amplifier to power those speakers, It's possible to buy more than 2.0 (Stereo) Channel Amplifier and hook up to 8 Speakers at once.

Seth Lyon said it best. Yes u can run 6 speakers. I installed unit myself. And had to crack the dash open again. Cause I set all of em to high pass. So make sure u dial it in first before u slap everything back together. Lol. Just instal a couple filters. When u splice into the front speaker channels and u should be golden pony boy

yes 2 speakers each pos and neg. actually you can hook up 4 speakers: bare each wire 1 inch and ball then insert

Nope. They all have wires, which makes the rear speakers a bit of a challenge to install unless you don't mind having a lot of wire running across your living room. Still, they are a good value and nice speakers.

Yes...I connected my exterior speaker system through the audio jack. The built in speaker was of poor quality so, IMHO, you really need the extra speakers. In fact, USB computer speakers were even a good improvement!

Each of these is a single 'set' (red and black cables joined together as in the photo (red & black)). So yes you will need to buy a cable 'set' for each speaker
