[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8748475, member: 614752"] I think pop has given about the same advice I would. Rear speakers are typically unnecessary and difficult to really build a good soundstage in a car with. If you were going to get into a big DIY project to try to run "active crossover" it's not like those components will go bad if you pulled the rears and just saved them for later. They're a premium product and if you kept them in a dark place and didn't crush them or something you could use them in another vehicle a decade from now or trade them into some other cool toys or whatever. Not like you bought junk here. I think there is definitely a problem if your tweeters are straining though. Those components are meant to take 110W continuous and your amp should be delivering 75W (probably a little bit more being RF POWER series) but definitely not that you should be over-driving them. Do you have some EQ settings that may be trying to over-boost some frequencies in the 1000-2000hz range? I really don't know anything about JL Fix so if that's doing something funny I can't really tell you how to fix the fix, but the passive crossovers on those components should have a -3db or similar switch in them that may help if the tweeters are being over-powered. Try to pop them open and see if that little switch helps you. [/QUOTE]
