Right Rear Speaker + Blue / Yellow
Right Rear Speaker - Red / White

Left Rear Speaker + White / Red
Left Rear Speaker - Red / Black

Right Front Speaker + Red / Yellow
Right Front Speaker - White / Black

Left Front Speaker + Brown / White
Left Front Speaker - Green

Illumination + * Red
Dimmer (Illum. -)* Red / Black

+12 Volt Memory Blue / Red
+12 Volt Accessory Brown / Red
Ground Black

Power Antenna + Black / Green

There is no crossover circuitry (low-pass/high-pass filter) in the SVX's speaker wiring. If you need this (e.g., for new tweeters), you'll have to add your own. Many (most?) new component tweeters include their own crossovers.

Should be the same as the front speaker wiring.

There are no separate terminals on factory stereo for the connection of the tweeters. These speakers are just connected in parallel to the front door speaker wiring, making that connection behind the dash.

Even if your SVX did not come with factory tweeters, it still has the wires and connectors in place, behind the blank tweeter grilles, ready for you to add your own.

If I remember right they are the same colors as the door speakers.
This pic help at all, its the right (passenger) side:

So red/yellow (matches blue side of tweeter) would be +
and white (matches white on the tweeter) is -

double check the wires theyy were hooked up right, because i am getting a lot of distortion with level beyond level 35 i replaced the factory head unit with a jvc kw-xs810 and with some pionner 6.5 and rear 6x9s here is the specs of the speakers
two-way speakers with an IMPP 6.5" woofer cone design, 1-3/16" tweeter, 200W maximum power handling or 25W nominal and two 6" x 9" three-way speakers with IMPP 6" x 9" woofer cone design, 2" tweeter, 220W maximum power handling or 30W nominal power. This CD receiver is designed to bring your music to life.
how do i get these speaker too sound good at loud levels with out them distorting?
do i have to buy better speaker or do something different? the factory 6/9s sound alot better than these aftermarkets. i would like other options other than installing a amplifier

Your speakers are from this box set thing?:
http://www.walmart.com/ip/Pioneer-DX...Specifications
Its product description seems to be the exact copy paste of what your specs said...
From the wallmart link:
"two 6.5" two-way speakers with an IMPP 6.5" woofer cone design, 1-3/16" tweeter, 200W maximum power handling or 25W nominal and two 6" x 9" three-way speakers with IMPP 6" x 9" woofer cone design, 2" tweeter, 220W maximum power handling or 30W nominal power. This CD receiver is designed to bring your music to life."

Any speakers that cost $85 for a set of 4, and come with a head unit = crappy speakers :/

So I'm gonna go with my gut on this one and say cheap crappy speakers are crappy.

So if those are your speakers... then putting an amp on them would only make them worse.

You really should avoid buying electronics from walmart. Some these items are made only for walmart, with lower quality parts, to be sold for cheaper.
I mean think about it, the cheapest set of pioneer 6.5" on pioneer.com are $60 for the pair, and those are the "G" line their lowest product line, which are still really crappy speakers.

So now that you have 2way speakers in the doors, are you also running the tweeters in the dash too?
If your going to get new speakers, you might want to consider just buying component speaker system that comes with separate woofers, tweeters, and crossovers, for the front instead of a 2way speakers.

polarity on speakers is only valid for medium and low freq's speakers. tweeters do not need to be polarized.
SVX comes with good quality speakers. You can always improve your sound if you get even better quality components. You need to visit a proffessional audio center or reinstall OEM speakers.

i do my tests with a cd.
anyway i soldered my wires together and dimmer illumiation wire to pin 14 the orange wire.
now i have a more serious of problem other than distortion, my speaker now cut in and out at surtain volume i tried wiggling the wires and reinserting the plugs form the head unit and the harness trying to get an idea what is causing this.
i checked the fuse on the back of the head unit it is fine. i did some soldering with the harness attached to the radio but later unplug it.
could the heat from wires of me soldering with the harness attach to the head unit killed the amplifier or damage the radio?
it also could be a grounding issue i ground it to the black wire on the svx adapter not to the frame of the car?
