Bass problems in car please help

[Idkwhatimdoing]

The bass in my car was always louder on the front passenger side door of the car. I couldnt really hear any bass coming fron the drivers side of the car at all. I decided to replace all four speakers today and the problem is still there. I just bought this car (2000 Outback) a few months ago. After installing the speakers I found out that the fader and balance are switched on the head unit. While playong around with the settings I found that adjusting the fade to the front of the car makes the bass super loud on the front passenger side speaker. In order for the bass in that door to not freak out I have to adjust the balance to the drivers side and the fade towards the rear, which makes it sound off as well.

I was wondering if anyone hear had a clue about what I'm going through and if they had any advice. Ive seen on some other forums that people recommend checking the polarity of the spealers but i'm having this problem even after putting new speakers in. Sorry in advance if This is a dumb question.

You might have to use Time Correction to properly align your front stage to the driver's side. Maybe your left speaker is out of phase(speaker wire switched), which can cause it to be quieter on one side than the other. What headunit do u have and what speakers did you get? Do you have any tweeters in your system?

If you don't have subs, they would give you more bass than door speakers.

I installed Pioneer TS-A1675R Speakers in all 4 doors. The bass comes out super strong on the passenger side and sounds like crap. I can have the bass turned all the way down and it still sounds like someone is beating on the door. It just rumbles like crazy. The head unit is some aftermarket Scocshe 40W unit. There are some tweeters up near the side mirrors but im not even sure if they work.
