CD player is Blaupunkt Montreal: underpowered, but never skips. And B4 90 is
my wife's car and she doesn't listen music very loud and we are planning to sell in a year. Bottom line I don't want to spent time/$.
The reasons for upgrade:
- play CD, so we got nice cheap CD player that matches interior;
- right front speaker was whining, but when I pull it the cone is fine, so may be it wasn't fixed firm enough;
- left rear speaker thinks that we need to hear rpms sometime, probably filter cap.
So with external crossover and attached 4ohm speaker and tweeter each - will I blow my CD player? If not which tweeters do you recomend with Infinity Kappa's?

None as you shouldn't run tweeters with coaxials...or just live with coaxials as-is...
...and leave the factory tweeters in there (but do not hook them up) so there isn't a hole in your door panel.

I've never seen a coaxial that came with a crossover...
...i'd imagine you don't need it, unless it's to be used with the built-in tweeter.
What do the instructions say?

It's Infinity Kappa 5.25i with no documentation, but
external crossover on out has 2 pairs of wires: for speaker and tweeter.
I will ask seller was it component and he didn't send tweeter or something else. Also I will find out about manual.
