MACnonsence6 Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 k lets say i was doing a demo right just had my speakers on not sub yet and the person im giving a demo to is like ya thats pretty loud then goes to say but... i flip my switch amp turns on and slams. what could go wrong if i had everything half tilt how bad is it for a sub to go from essentially off to getting around half power out of 1500 rms to to re se 12s Quote I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today. This thing sounds amazing. 130 watts, 12" woofer with a passive 12" woofer tuned to 27 hz. Moving the pictures on the walls and my girl got wet from the bass when i showed her haha. Tonight should be good haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skittlesRgood Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 it'll be fine. but instead of a switch i would just use the RCA gain knob and have it turned all the way down until you are ready to scare them.

jakobebassbudds Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 hmm good idea Quote 2 12ks and i dont know what to do build in the works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyV18 Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 A hidden bass knob would have the same effect. Just turn it up quick between bass hits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACnonsence6 Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) i may do that seen stuff on here about doing up a push lighter as the knob Edited March 14, 2011 by hifonics10 Quote I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today.
