Quick question - I've got a 3rd gen with the Clarion sound system - not Bose. Does the Clarion system have amps? I get a lot of distortion whenever I'm listening to music with a lot of bass. The solution to this, of course, is to install some two-way speakers, which I'll do next week. Until then, is there anything I can do to get rid of the distortion on the speakers I have now?
edit: Subs, box, and a din-and-a-half Alpine head unit for $275, amp for $75. Head unit for $130 retail, but I might exchange it.

blaupunkt pca 2100

custom aluminum frame for boxes, bolted to the frame

two blaupunkt PCA 1000s (i dont like the grilles either)

40 gig iPod running through my AUX up front

sony head unit, 54x4 peak, 24x4 rms... enough to push the pioneer 220 watts 4 ways in all corners. it has a nice LCD color feature, 3 outputs, aux input, removable face plate, plays mp3 cds, and sounds real good.

all the stock trim pieces fit back in place, carpet fits fine, spare tires is still acessable, no rattles and it sounds great

ive had good experiences with blaupunkt in the past; my uncle had a full set up by them in his s4 and a6. i had heard they were good for sq, so i started looking at their subs.
car domain had the TSWs for 25 bucks each (found here) which is a steal compared to the average retail price i found of 80-100, and some insanely high msrp. it is a nice bonus that this series of sub has transparent cones... looks hot back lit with neon
. looked at their amp specs, found one i liked, and found a site that had it on sale for 75 (normal price is 1XX) and threw in a free blaupunkt ground noise isolator. it ended up being a nice cheap set up that did what i wanted. i definately see why you ask....havent seen another blaupunkt set up on here, and ive gone through most, if not all, of this thread.

Less than 200 bucks for subs and an amp is an excellent reason

My setup has changed...
This was my sound rig back in October:


Iv'e made some changes:
same MB Quart 10' . all around Pioneer TSD160R's
New custom made transmission line box and two new amps, now properly installed. The bass is pretty decent and uncolored.
