Sounds like your pushing too hard. And getting some coil rub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

whats the crossover set for your 6 by 9 sounds like your letting too many low notes to your 6 by 9's hence why the only make the sound on deep bass songs.

Adjust the freq on your cross over and then check what your amps gain is set it

What are you powering the 6 x 9's with ? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

LOL, yo i got nearly the same setup, 2 swr1242, kenwood HU, optima, 6x9

THE SAME SHIT WAS HAPPENING!!!

My 6x9 were mounted above my trunk. There was so much pressure created by my subs that they would force the 6x9's to bottom out/top out. (push them all the way up) To fix the problem, I just removed them. The result was the sound coming through the holes where they used to be, bouncing off the rear windshield and into the cabin...thus even loud //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

if you want to keep em in...try putting some sound deadener around it
