A JL Audio 10w0 v3-4 subwoofer with a sealed enclosure and a Morel MPD1.500 mono amplifier provided 500w RMS power to my car’s audio system after a lengthy period of research, uncertainty, and financial restraints.
Various other specifications - operating Connected to a Soundstream 2000w amplifier and a DEAF BONCE Machete M6C six-channel high-level converter are two pairs of Morel Maximo 6 mkii.
However, for some reason, the tweeters of the speakers are quite loud and hurt my ears. My sub installer informed me that the problem is with my Soundstream amplifier; my original head unit also has treble issues, therefore I will need a digital signal processor, a new amplifier, and higher-quality speakers.
Considered purchasing a Morel mpd 1.100 amplifier, a Morel Tempo extreme component, and an Onkyo/Nakamichi digital signal processor.

Apologies, but were you out of commission for any reason while you were installing the trunk sound deadening?

That amp isnt making 500 watts at 4 ohms

Indeed, at 4 ohms, it generates 350 watts of power.
According to what I saw on the JL Audio website, the ideal amplifier power range for a 10w0 sub is 75 to 300 W.
So this morel is just applying a little more power than what’s advised; but, I haven’t fully expanded the gain, so I should be OK, right?

The speakers are fine. A better amp and dsp/hi/low converter would help

Really? So the harshness is cause of bad amp and not having dsp??

Is one set of mid-range speakers installed in each door? 4-door vehicle?
Up front, you’ll find the tweeters, which are likely aimed towards the windshield or the sail panel.
Was there a designated spot for the rear tweeters in their inventory? I thought you would just switch them out on the back door panel? Fading the tweeters to the front may improve the “image” your ears receive and decrease treble output when such speakers are relatively near to your head. As a result, you’ll have an easier time processing what you’re hearing and identifying what you dislike.
Is the noise level just too high? If you barely increase the radio’s level, the subwoofer may not be adjusted to have minimum output at lower volumes.

I have mid speakers and in all 4 doors and 4 tweeters in all four as well.
Attaching the rear door picture you can see the placement of tweeter. This one actually hurts the mostin ear
