6x9's are not designed to handle low bass my advise would be to turn the bass down on your h/u and it should get rid of the bass distortion problem...good luck...

Goddyd4me is right on. turn down the bass on your HU. a 6*9 is ment more to produce midbass and volume. if u want that low bass toss in a sub.

Ok ill give that a try and let ya know.

PEACE

turning down the bass on your hu wont work well, cause it will eliminate ALL bass...

if you're not gonna do anything more to your stereo, buy 'bassblockers' or similar passive filters

ok ill try this and see maybe itll work and looking for an amp to run theses two speakers.

cool, u know wat speakers dont distort?? jensen's 6x9s they have a build in tweeter in em. my bro has a set of 6 1/2's they dont distort at all and they have pretty good bass

 

[budgetSQ 10+ year member]

ummm... u find a 6x9 that doesn't have a tweeter built in and i'll pay you!

doesn't count if u cut it off

 

[carguy 10+ year member]

Ok i will

kicker made some a while back, but 6x9's are a poor mans sub anyways....they sound terrible, a good set of coaxials would be better...if you can't afford components.

yes positive and negitives out of phase will cause bass cancellation from one another
