I just got done installing the rear speaker kit (think it has 3.5" speakers). Does anyone else that has this kit have any trouble eq'ing stuff? It seems like no matter how much I turn down the bass, the rear speakers try to "handle" the bass and sound muddy. They don't seem as loud as the fronts either so it's hard to even tell they're there.

Is the fact that my Fade function doesn't actually do Front to Rear, it only turns the Fronts output down, but doesn't do anything to the rears.

confused...
