what kind of 17" speaker is it? you are using the metric system, correct? so 17" is not inches right?

What else are you using, an amp or the deck to power it?

Maybe some sound deadening material like dynamat will help...

we still need more info, are you using an amplifier or the deck? could you be more descriptive in what noises the speakers make?

The crossover settings are very important, and maybe the cause of the problem

You said this happens with loud bass. It's possible you're just working those speakers too hard, and pushing them to their limits (max excursion). This will definitely sound bad. If you're using an amplifier, set the crossovers to high pass at no lower than 80 Hz. Also, turn down the bass on the radio and don't use the loud button. If you do not have an amplifier, add some bass blockers, and don't turn the volume up so high.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.

Don't run subwoofers off deck power. You'll be clipping the poor deck all day long and your music will sound horrible until you...

Get an amplifier. :-)
