RE: [DML] Re: Replacing speakers

["Videobob Moseley" <videobob@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a note on this that I learned the hard way,
the original DMC stereo system had a different grounding system than modern 
radios do.
Take my advice on this one, if you have installed a new radio you should run 
all new wires
to all new speakers. You will remove all doubts and save your self a ton of 
problems.
