other option is to replace the factory amp with aftermarket 4 ch and passive crossovers. quite abit of work but the end result is pretty good
I can crank the volume up almost all the way. Once I get near the very top end, I get a bit distortion as would be expected.

I've installed line out convertor on the speaker out instead of using the RCAs. It has eliminated the popping noise, but the quality is much worse than using the RCAs. I guess that's all i can do for now....

I hope to be able to install an aftermarket amp in the future, its just not in the budget right now. (unless someone has something cheeeap)
