I may have missed reading it, but have you checked all your speaker connections to make sure they are not contacting metal/ground? Also, check your speaker wire runs for any exposed/pinched areas.

Another option is to get something used. You can get decent gear for good prices.
As for the Boston amp....solid choice that will make its rated power. Its a great deal on a very nice amplifier....
I brought up the 13W6v2 because you had asked for opinions on subs. JL is pricey, but they do have quality gear. I've had several of the W6v2 line and they perform very well.
Your subwoofer...
Seems like you have a good amount of space. Before my 10's, I was using a JL 13W6v2. This is a very nice sounding sub with good impact. I had it in a sealed enclosure that was a little under 2...
Headunits have been getting pretty flashy for a while now. I just keep using the older gear.
Try to contact Polk customer support for that piece.
I also believe that DB driver to be from the 90's. It was Polk's top of the line set back in those days, very nice drivers & tweeter. I had...
I am very happy with my W6.... I've had it for quite a while now.
The SR's are very nice sounding speakers. It's a good thing you found the problem. Once you get them dialed in you will really appreciate them.
Totally understand that it sucks.
Perfect time for an upgrade though....
I remember when people were having this issue....good luck with the soldered leads.
Hertz does make nice speakers, but you will pay more. If you are happy with how the MM's sound, go for those.
As for upgrading your amp. Having some headroom is a nice thing, but if your...
Go with the knukonceptz wire....good company to deal with, good prices, & good products.
If the SR's are what you want, that is the route I would take. They are a very nice set of speakers & you will save yourself the hassle of selling & buying to get what you originally wanted.
That would be a very nice setup.
This reminds me of when I was running some sets of older Polk speakers (reason I originally came to this forum). They all reproduced very nice sound.
I had a set of DB3065's components, some 6...
These look like nice amps. Ive only run Class D for sub amp duties in the past, but will probably go full Class D the next time around. Very good efficiency and compact design are a big plus when...
Hey Mac, good to see your still here. I've been pretty busy with other things. Still enjoy this hobby, so I came back to hang out with you guys.
Good suggestions here...I also like Alpine. The CDA-9887 is a nice unit, still have this one. I currently have the CDA-117 in my car. It only has a high pass x-over though. I'm actually using the...
Not hacked...just took a little break :)
Those wattage numbers are not correct.
When asking for advice make sure to give model numbers & the correct specifications. Without this, we can't help you.
As far as best sound...
It should not be an issue.
I bet they sound very nice with all the sound proofing that you have done.
I've had a w6 running with my Arc Audio 1500-xxk....never had any issues with it.....that amp was putting out a good amount of power, ofcourse i was conservative with the gains.
My current one...
Nice set up, the SR's are some very nice speakers.
I've run a JL W6 a couple of different times. It's a very good sub...
Congratulations! Having a little one comes with having a few extra items in the car :) .
Starting a new project is hard after getting things dialed in with your car. It is also fun though. ...
Give it a try and see if you like it. Having the extra headroom is nice, just make sure your gains are set correctly.
