I have a 2015 honda fit. I had the OEM unit, going to a JBL MS-8, which went to a JBL mono amp, and a JBL 4 channel amp. I have a TC Epic 10, infinity references up front, nvx speakers in rear. My jbl amp is 100rms X 4, both 2 and 4 ohm stable.
With the OEM and MS-8, my speakers screamed, they all sounded good, my gains were at like 40 on the amps.
My MS-8 crapped out, so I put a Pioneer AVH5800 in, with RCAs ran to the amps. My speakers sound HORRIBLE. My front speakers are extremely quiet now, no life to them. I have my gains turned all the way up and there still pretty **** quiet. I have to turn my head unit volume almost all the way up. The speakers are muddy, the tweeters don't scream, the midbass is HORRID. My wifes 100% stock system in her 2016 Honda CRV sounds 100X better.
What could be the problem here? My OEM system before the ms-8 even sounded better than now.
