[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8616897, member: 650438"] I'd run new speaker wire because most likely the splitter was also somewhat of a crossover that might be limiting frequencies to your front 5.25 compared to a full range signal with the rears. Stock speakers had a stock baffle that was properly done. If you didn't recreate the stock baffle nor do any proper acoustical treatments, there is no wonder it sounds worse than the old system. Bundled along with the system not being amped then you got the makings of a horrible sounding setup. Aftermarkets need power to amount to anything sad to say. You also should have done components, even if the sound stage is not drowned out by the rears, the sound stage will always be stuck by your feet and never at eye level where it should have been. Can you also correct your head unit model, you have a typo there is it the x300 or x301 or x302? [/QUOTE]
