I installed some 6x9 3-way sony xplods in my jimmy about 3 weeks ago and I noticed a rattle in my speakers. I ripped the back right apart and found it was the speaker itself. In the video, you can hear the rattle wen the bass hits. but wen i put my finger on the speaker about halfway through, it stops. Im pretty sure its coming from the area my light is pointed at (in the middle of the cone). Anyone know what this is? Thanks (sorry for bad video skills)

1. sony

2. 3-way

3. I'm guessing you don't know much about car audio from the first 2.

Probably too much gain on the amp or too much bass going into them.

You want the highs on HPF amps.

 

I have these Speakers
Sony Xplod XS-GTX6931 6"x9" 3-way car speakers at Crutchfield.com

Now, I just ordered a higher end kenwood head unit. Do you think that will help my problem or is there something I could adjust with it to help my problem. Im just sitll in doubt that my stock headunit could blow my speakers when I dont listen to it very loud and the speaker is rated for 100w and peak at 400w

 

Could it be beacuse im only running 4 ohm speakers when the old stock speakers were 9.5ohms
