Kappas (2ohm) in dash - breakup problems

well I was concerned about putting a 2ohm speaker in the dash since the doors are wired in parallel and sure enough, Im getting some horrible breakup/distortion from them (not even close to full vol too). Only change to the FJammer/6 speaker setup was the addition of the 3.5" Kappas in dash. I noted that the cheapo stocks were 8 ohms.... so I guess my best short term workaround is to add some inline resistors (2 ohm) to the Kappas and see how that works.

Was hoping to come up with something adequate to upgrade the FJammer but its looking more and more like a full amp/speaker/HU upgrade. At least I have most of that sitting in the corner already from previous installs.

Its a real shame Toyo went so low end with this. This and the lack of rear windows opening (the rear ports should be electronically controlled IMO) are my only complaints so far though.

Cheers,

Starkbier
