Sub distortion

What can i do about it. I have two JL 10" W6 subs, one of them distorts when i turn the sound up. I don't have a deck or an amp right now so i am just running them off my stereo. With the EQ i can set all frequencies to -10 and leave 125Hz at +10, when i do this the distortion is almost gone, what could this mean?

Re: Sub distortion (battsup)

distorting due to low power, thats my guess.
turn em down, dont expect so much out of em until youve got more power.
