I purchased an in-dash stereo for my pick-up truck, and some cheap
speakers. The stereo has bass and treble adjustment but not midrange. I
have since replaced the speakers. The new ones do better, and sound
better, but still have the same problem. High frequencies have too much
attenuation.


By the rest of your post, you mean the other way around.

Reducing treble all the way will not kill the cymbals and S
sounds. With the new speakers, if I turn the bass up very much, I get
incredible deep bass, but still too much high frequency.


I thought I would buy some inductors at Radio Shack and put in line with
the speakers. From what I remember they are measured in henrys. But, I
need so little effect I may be better off making small wire coils,
instead.


Easiest way is to add a resistor in series with each tweeter. Something
about 8 ohm 5 watt should be a good start
