    It is likely the speaker distort because you head unit is not powerfull enough, headunits amplfier power output is actually quite low.

    If you don't want to turn the bass level down on the headunit because that reduces bass to you subwoofer then what you do is install a custom passive crossover filter (a set of exact capacitors) to stop bass going to you speakers.

    I can exactly tell you what components you need to do this.


    What is you whole system and how is it wired?

    I need to know what impedance your speakers are 4 or 8 ohm?

    Also the crossover point of your subwoofer would be usefull?
