alright i dont really know a lot about stereos and speakers. so here it is...

i got a two 6x9's in the back and two 10 inch subs and a stock honda HU.. (sound like having 4 stock speaker's but more and better base... just got the car and used all my savings for it)
my problem is that at full bass the 6x9's will start to make blown speaker like noise.. yet wen i fade the sound only 6x9 it doesnt do it and wen i fade it out to the two sub it doesnt do it either..

what do u guys think is wrong..

 

Do you have an amp running the subs?

 

no amp... am using the front speaker output for the subs... (like i said it sounds like having 4 stock speakers but just has a bit better and has more bass..)

 

you dumbass, its your speakers getting distorted, turn the bass down. speakers (ie your 6x9's) aren't meant to handle BASS (not base). your speakers can't handle trying to move that much air, so there just flapping. you said you have ten's so these should be making all your frequency's below 100htz

 

didnt i say that wen i fade it out to just the 6x9 it doesnt have that distorted sound...
and there no need to be throwing your stupid language around and calling people names.. thats why its a question...

 

You can't run you subs off the speaker outputs from your radio. That's the problem. I'm suprised you haven't blown your subs yet. You head unit does not have near the power those subs require.

 

well through the speaker output the subs are pushin but not much of which i like for now...(no money to get amps yet )
wen i fade it just to the subs its fine and wen i fade to just the speakers its fine.. but wen i have both on the speakers will start to have a distorted noise but only wen am about 3/4 of the full volume on the stock HU of a honda civic

Just use or get front speakers, and save the subs till you can get an amp. 94

 

well i know am a noob at stereo stuff..
but the sub doesnt sound like its suffering while i have it wired up to the front speakers.. but the real problem is that it has that distorted noise in the 6x9's when i have both the sub and the speaker going at the same time at high volume on the stock civic head unit..
is this caused by the slight thump of the sub or wat....
should i jus solder the wires to the speaker to see if the makes a difference.. coz wen the sub doesnt thump as loud as full bass it doesnt make that distorted noise..

thanks for all of your inputs tho...

but f urself if u got hater opinions...( only to the haters)
