Default rear speakers

hey i've got some kickers in the back for my rear speakers and they're hooked up to my alpine deck. they rattle the metal that holds them sometimes when they get to loud. the quality of the music is still perfectly fine so its not like i'm gonna blow it out. it just rattles that metal piece that holds it. anyone know how to fix this?

I'd fix it by taking them out.

And then your redundancy problem will be no more.

Unless you have mastered the effect of perfect ambience with your sweet "kicks" then take them out.

Hey man. Thanks for the advice. Since you like to moan and complain so much why don't you invest in some Johnson's no more tears baby shampoo. It could actually stop you from being such a cry-baby suck ***** vagina.

Look, Princess.

Why don't you just sit in your land of happiness, and tea cups.

Sincerely,
Hisss

Honestly,

The best way to fix your rattle in the rear is to put the aftermarket speakers in the front where they belong.

yup, hiss welcomes another to the forum.

you need to first find out what is rattling and then fix it. There is damping material like dynamat, expandable foam or a couple of other ways but it basically comes down to making it solid so that it does not rattle.

Although Hiss maybe (ok, IS) mean, hes 99.999% always right.

If you have your system setup correctly (with subs), you wouldn't really hear your rear speakers anyway, just a waste of time, space, and money.

i disagree...

Rear fill has been a debate in the car audio world for years. There are competitors that have done very well with rear fill or with out it. The dude hada simple question and deserved an answer. To simply say that you don't need them is a matter of opinion. His is no more right then yours.

That is true to a degree. The overwhelming majority of competitors that use rear fill with low pass it around 500hz.

I think some mids as rear fill can add to some stereos, but full range rear fill is basically pointless.
