<p>The superior audio quality thanks to the Kenwood stereo
system is as good as any on the market. However, many of Kenwood audio receivers
contain no iPod connection port. Even the business hubs of high-end
entertainment that interface with the computer via USB cannot provide
connectivity to an iPod. But that does not mean you cannot high-quality audio
through your stereo Kenwood iPod. <br />
<p><br />
<p>1. Put your Kenwood stereo. Connect devices with the stereo
turned on may lead to spikes in volume that can damage the speakers and even
your ears. Turn up the stereo, so you can use the set of connectors on the back
to see. <br />
<p><br />
<p>2. Connect the end of 3.5 mm 3.5 mm to RCA cable for the
headset from your iPod. If you do not have a cable 3.5mm to RCA, you can buy
one of the sound equipment stores or electronics stores like Radio Shack. <br />
<p><br />
<p>3. Connect the RCA end to your cable 3.5mm to RCA in an
available port on the back of your Kenwood stereo. Put your Kenwood stereo, so
you can access the buttons on the front. Turn the sound and select the channel
of your iPod is connected. <br />
<p><br />
<p>4. Test the connection. Lower the volume on the Kenwood
stereo and start a track playing on your iPod that you can recognize. Turn your
volume until you play the iPod through the stereo to listen. If you hear no
sound, check the "Monitor CD2/TAPE2" is active, and "Mute"
is off <br />
We're talking about an all-in-one package here. These types of products don't generally lend themselves to swapping out parts like speakers and expecting good results.
This link gives some good large pictures from all angles.
.. .shows the amplifier outputs. The blue connectors go to subs, which in the original speakers coexist in the same enclosures as the so-called front speakers (red).
Your previous 'distortion' issue, for all we know at this writing, could have been due to miswiring those two functions.
Without knowing what "addtional speakers" were added to the unit and if they were designed for this unit, your results regarding loudness and sound quality would be questionable and unreliable.
Well, here is the situation as I understand it. Here is also some theory to help you out. Your Receiver or Amplifier has a "scale" showing relative volume. Distortion always increases in speakers and amplifiers when you turn them up. If the sound is getting extremely distorted, the Receiver is attempting to operate above it's maximum output. The scale is an average, but because music recordings are often mastered at different levels, "80" may be too much. When an amplifier section of a receiver is over driven, the distortion (which you observed) will damage or burn out your speakers. Most likely the tweeter (high frequency speaker) If you back off the volume, or turn down the output of the deck until the sound becomes clear, then that level, IS FULL VOLUME. Based on what you are saying to me, I don't think anything needs service. There is one other very important thing I should mention to you. When people use high powered equipment and initially turn up the sound. After a short time, the mind turns it down. What next happens is the reason professional musicians and sound engineers often have permanent hearing loss after a relatively short time. What happens is that the listener and often the engineer running the sound board at a concert thinks the sound is not loud enough (when the audience is happy with the level) and turns it up. After turning it up, his mind (and the audiences') turns it down and then he thinks it not loud and then again turns it up. And up. And up. The only reason I'm not deaf is that I discovered this when I was building sound systems as a kid. I also studied about it. So please be careful when you play things loud. Permanent hearing loss starts to occur at the very high frequencies and rolls down from there over a period of time. Hearing loss can start to occur in just a few hours. at 110 decibels. It doesn't come back. If you understand this, you'll keep your hearing. I hope this helps, Best Regards, Mark

tick on "use only default devices".
.
do it and solve it
Twenty nine sounds pretty loud to me. A shorted voice coil in any one of your speakers will drop its resistance value so if the amplifier thinks its feeding a short circuit, will "protect" itself by shutting off. Check wiring carefully and each speaker at a little lower volume for sounds of distortion ie: shorted voice coils...
I'm not familiar with your system but generally, reducing the lows and highs will make the voice frequencies more prominent since they roughly between 300-3,000 Hertz.
Some systems have range/filter selections that allow you to choose between voice and several music types.
