Get the right speaker fitted , then have a listen could be the in- balance between the standard speaker and the focal.
Also remember that the focals take more driving than the standard speakers, maybe time to get a decent amp fitted?
PS Head unit amps are crap anyway, don't beleive the output figures.

Fitted a Focal 165V2 to my car this evening but for some reason it starts to distort. The Left is Focal and the right is crappy Standard Speaker. Yet when you turn the volume up the Focal starts to distort before the standard speaker.....
What have I done wrong???? I am attempting to fit right speaker tomorrow. I know more about nanotechnology than I do about ICE so any help would be appreciated.

Rich

Sounds like the speaker or a short to ground on the speaker cable, check the wiring and make sure you have no shorts or bad connections.

It could be a buggered driver, or it could be a wiring problem (grounding, as mentioned above).
Check all the wiring, if you have a multimeter check resistance of the wiring loom from the back of the head unit to that speaker, it should be around 4 ohm.

Don't think this is a 'out of phase' issue the sound from one speaker would sound O.K, when both are on together you would get a very 'thin' sound with a lack of bass if out of phase, not a distorted sound, double check cables, if no shorts ETC then it is for certain a dodgy driver unit, you check the speaker on another head unit possibly?,or return the whole set of speakers for replacement!!!!
