[QUOTE="Cmberges1, post: 8753002, member: 683449"] Ok so here's the deal. Have an 06 Toyota trundra that I've installed some new gear but it don't sound right. It seems that the speakers are getting distorted at different volume s for different music. Sometimes the highs are clear but when the full range of music starts (non vocal but instrument) it starts to distort at mid volume and I've tried everything I can think of to clean it up. Ideas? Gear issue? I'm an idiot issue??? IDK Here's the setup (and fyi I rewired the whole truck) Head unit - Dual xvm279nav Amp - Powerbase 300.2 Front Components - JL audio C1-650 Wiring - 14g speaker wire and 4g amp kit ($70 amp kit) Audio inputs tried are: USB drive with mp3 files, aux cord and phone with mp4 and Spotify, also bluetooth with same files.
