The 91- cars are, to put it politely, a clusterf**k. Someone was doing major drugs when they designed this system.
The head unit puts out power to god knows what. I can't even remember anymore. But whatever. The thing that really screws everything up is that the tweets and the woofers (in quotation marks perhaps) in the front dash/doors, are on a high/low pass circuit somewhere in the amp or in the stereo but I'm not sure which. I'm sure someone can tell you, but to me I'll never even worry about it because if I rewire a car, I wire AROUND all the Volvo crap. Because it is, plain and simple, a very bizarre system.
The very easiest (and most user friendly risking less fire and sound system damage) is to take the head unit's output, put in a set of front door speakers for the low pass, wire in a crossover for the high pass (tweeters in dash obviously) and wire the rear speakers in the doors on the rear channel. It seems like a lot of work but in the long run it is MUCH more realistic. The power leads are all totally functional, however, so you can save a lot of time doing that.
