Hey I just installed my system and it sounds like ***. I have a pioneer deck a Rockford 301 amp(40 x4), Rockford Fanatic P components in front (6.5), and Fosgate FRC4206U in back (6.5). It seems like all I here is the rear speakers, I have to fade deck to 10 in front just to hear the componets over the rear speakers. All the speaker wiring is correct, And it seems like whenever I have the bass up on hard rock songs I can hear the rear speakers bottoming out a little. Also pasangers in the back complain about the tweets being to harsh. Right now the speakers are free air because I am in the process of installing fatmat. Idk what the problem could be I've tried all sorts of EQ postions on the deck and they all seem shitty. The fronts don't sound bad at all they are just to quiet or the rears are too loud. I tried sitting in the rear and I could hear the symbols over the singer. Should I scrap the rear speakers and go for some type r components? Would that change anything or would the rear speakers still be alot louder than the fronts. BTW I plan on getting 2 10 inch type s's in the near future.

 

I would switch the back to the front, reset your EQ's to the back more and get those 2 10's. should saound a bit better then.

 

That's funny cause I just went out and tried to do that. Problem is the rear speakers won't fit in the front and I already have spacers. And I already have a little hole in my door panel for the tweeter's wire. Btw I have a 92 civic si.

 

ditch the rears, rear fill sucks anyways hehe..

 

did you check your gains on the amp? if its four channels then there should be 2 ***** that increase/decrease wattage on the side where the rca's imput (usually)
making a guess your rears are overpowering because of wattagee

p.s. a standalone EQ does wonders.. try ebay and look 4 pioneer deq-7600

oh snap.. i almost forgot.. make sure you didnt accidentally reverse the negative /w the positive on the rears... and proof read your amplifiers wireing diagram in the manual.. isw the rear accidntally bridged? it could bew so many things.. its hard to say w/ visually looking @ it.

 

Thanks for the help guys. Turns out the gain was turned all the way down on the front speakers. I could have sworn I turned it on and checked that when I installed it.

 

and it sounds even now?

 

Ya it sounds even, excecpt for the components in front sound a hundred times better than the coaxials in back.
