High level input signal distortion

[Keohapa]

I have a 12" rockford p300 powered sub running via high level input off of my front door speakers. Problem im having is head unit has only basic settings. No lpf or hpf. I would like to cut out the bass to my door speakers and have only low frequency coming in to my sub/amplifier. Normally i go with an aftermarket head unit so this is my first time using high level inputs. This amplifier does not seem to have too much adjustments either gain, xover, bass boost) Any suggestions or advice.

You could add some bass blockers for your door speakers so that only the sub plays bass.

Thanks. I ordered 2 pairs. The signal coming into my amplifier seems to be very distorted as well. Even at low volume with gain/ bass boost almost all the way down. Xover is set at about 80. Not sure whats going on

Question. So I order those bass blockers. How can I install it so that it doesn't interfere with my line output converter that is pulling the signal from my door speakers. Will it filter out the bass going to my sub as well

The bass blockers goes on the speaker terminal it should interfere with the signal going to the amp.
