Strange issue after Beat-Sonic amp install -- JBL speaker now dominating the stereo system

[ysp1]

Hello!

I installed the Beat Sonic and thought the improvement was definitely noticeable. I then had the stock JBL speakers all upgraded to the JBL Stadium 32s. Here's the odd part. With the new speakers installed, that center (removeable) JBL speaker is now dominating the system, which it never really did before. When I disable that speaker (just with some tape over the metal leads) the system sounds fantastic, but that center speaker is now useless. Should i just leave it this way, or is there away to adjust the output of the removeable speaker so it complements and doesnt dominate the system? Thank you!!

I don’t understand the point of that speaker being there or it’s integration

To my understanding, the removable speaker isn't a part of the sound system in the 4Runner. All it does is pop out.

Are the new speakers the same ohms as the old ones? Probably the new ones all need more power to output a given volume but the center one didn't change. You might be able to adjust it in the settings in the infotainment screen. I don't have the jbl so Idk if it has a slider for each channel. I think mine just has has a single front/back/left/right positioner dot that modifies all speakers itself, no individual channel controls.
