How can I get the bass to stop distorting the by-9's in the rear deck of my GA GT? Could they be distorting cause they are Sony Xplodeds? lol

Yes I know, Sony... :wacko:

I plan on switching to either Kicker KS Series or RF Power by-9's.

how high do you have the volume turned up, adding a amp may actually be a good idea if running off radio, a mids and high amp,

I do have an amp on them. They see I think 70RMS a piece. When the bass is down, they don't distort. Only when it goes up they distort and sound like shit. Oh, max vol I get is like 3/4 up and thats as far as I ever go. For being crap Sony's they actually get loud.

Well like I said with the woofers 'off' there is no distortion whatsoever. Only when woofers get turned up via knob.

the problem can be the pressure of the sub(S) moving the by9s cone when it doesnt want to

in that case, get rid of them and improve ur front stage, utilize the by9s holes to get the subs louder with more air interaction with the cabin

my 2cents

Exactly what I'm thinking about to much pressure. I do have the seats folded down though so I don't think I need to get rid of them. But could it be just them being cheap Sony's with a 'weak' cone causing it? Do you think with say RF Power by-9's I'd have that problem?

i dont use rear speakers at all because it doesnt sound good and it doesnt matter what kind of speaker you use, if u have enough pressure u will move the tiny weak cones of interior speakers

i had a 03 grand am with rear folding seats with 2 re se's and eventually i got rid of the rear 6x9s because of this exact problem

id rather put double the power on the front than use rear speakers, usually they destroy a good front stage unless ur crossing them over at 4-5khz anyways
