Would getting aftermarket speakers be an improvement?

Kenwoods are usually alright.

Due to age of swap them anyways.

How do you have your settings?(such as bass,treble,eq settings, bass boost, loudness)

first, my amp didnt come with a bass knob so i have to use the setting on the headunit

sub lvl:15 bass:0 mid:0 treble:0 bass boost:0 loudness:1

I've messed with the settings a bunch but I cant really do anything with them because my speakers will keep disorting no matter what i do on the settings

Do you have a dd-1? My head unit is a kdc x497 and it starts to clip around +11 sub volume no matter the volume. Id adjust your sub level down and increase your gain accordingly.

what clips? your door speakers or your subs? my subs dont clip at all at +15 its just the door speakers, probably because of the age and quality of them. I dont have a dd1 but was probably going to buy an inexpensive oscilloscope to tune it better

the headunit clips at +11 sub level. as soon as it hits +11 it clips at volume of 1. so I made my max gain +9 on the head unit.
