You never told us what your front stage is....I mean, if you're running 300 watts up front with a mediocre sub stage, of course it's gonna overpower your bass....youre not running the greatest sub...and on top of that you are barely powering it. If money is tight, save up for a while and be happy with what you have for now....I have had to save for years in order to get things I want, if you want it bad enough then it's worth the wait. And if you want to balance it out better.....use the fade control. Either way, good luck man...I hope you are able to get it sounding better!!
