i paid 100$ for a new pair of audiobahn acx-693 speakers...3 way, external x-over...they came factory sealed, they retail for about 220$ i think they were last years mode, thats y they were so cheap. they handle 215 rms, 40 oz magnet...ect...i hooked them up using the x-over, just running them off my head unit...they sound great till about volume 30 out of 50...i usually run my system about 38 or so, so i need to fix this problem...they distort bad and crackle and stuff. yes, i have them wired to the x-over correctly. any help would be GREATLY appreciated....im about to throw them in the road anbd run them over. thank you. |

If you can take them back, I'd definately do so. They are poorly made and nowhere near worth what they retail for. Look into Infinity Kappa or Reference 6x9's for a good 6x9 with great sound quality. |

You can't run 100W RMS speakers off a 25W head unit lead. They'll never sound right.

No, but the "215W RMS" 6x9s he was running weren't any better. He can always get an amp for them. |

Listen to Jonathan, I had Audiobahn 5.25 and 6x9 and replaced them a week later with infinity because of their sound |
