sine leads always clashin w my 808s

so whenever i have a beat with sine leads, they always clashing w my 808. I EQ all my melodies so the low end is not the problem. the sine leads n 808 are in the same frequency range so if i lowered it, you couldn't hear the lead and if i lowered it for the 808, it would have no punch. i can put soft clipper, waveshaper, limiters, EQs, etc on my 808s and they still crackle in my headphones w the lead. i have no idea how to make my 808 hit like it should but also have my lead do its job w/o fighting my 808.
