I havea 1996 XJ6. The factory radio is having problems playing music. The rear speakers are working perfectly but the front speakers distort horribly everytime the bass hits. I know its not the speakers because I replaced them with new ones. I also isolated the sound and faded the sound to compare the rear and front speakers at the same volume. The front speakers distort horribly whereas the rears play fine. I assume there is something wrong with the radio head unit. Is anyone experiencing this problem or know what the problem may be. Thanks.

 

Hi

I think you will find the speakers are really not up to much. I changed my head unit and they were still the same. I think it's due to the paper cones.

I have replaced them now and added a bass amp in the trunk and the difference is significant.

Hope this helps

I replaced the factory head unit with a kenwood head unit. The factory head unit was causing the problem all along. Thanks for the help.
