[QUOTE="hispls, post: 8728998, member: 614752"] Try without the rears, it can't hurt to test. I'd say if you can't fix things to your liking with EQ it may come down to improving install/location of your components up front. Chances are that just throwing different amps/drivers at this will not be your silver bullet. Is everything in stock locations? How much sound deadening and sealing have you done around mounting locations? Are you using passive crossovers that came with your components or trying to cross over active? If active, what are your crossover points? I don't think those auto-eq tools are meant to be the end-all be-all set and forget, but rather to get you close enough that you can dial in to your taste. If you are finding distortion somewhere it is possible that your head unit is trying to over-drive one frequency band to try to overcome a null that could be corrected with tweaking crossover points or changing aiming/position of components.
