xBIG-MIKEx Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 I finally bought a new amp to replace my old sony xplod. The xplod didn't have many settings to work with, but the new one has a few different ones. I was wondering if there is a general "rule of thumb" as of how to set the knobs The amp: Lanzar MXA 282 (2 channel amp) Settings: Level (min-max) High Pass (80hz - 2.5k) Low Pass ( 35hz - 400) Bass Boost (0 - +18db) Phase (0 - 180) Any advice would be greatly appreciated Quote
matt14 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Posted April 9, 2011 Is this being used as a sub amp or are you power some door speakers with it?

canderton01 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 (edited) You don't need HPF if it's for your subs Low pass - 120hz Bass boost - 0 phase - 0 (unless you are running your subs inverted) Edited April 10, 2011 by canderton01 Quote 2002 Camry XLE 35% tints all around 17'' Enkei FD-05 rims Fi Q15 in 3.8cu ft box tuned to 32Hz Pioneer DEH-P7200HD AudioQue AQ1200d 4 Gauge Tsunami wiring/RCA's mids/highs - OEM JBL system AudioTechnix Deadner Big 3 upgrade My YouTube
Supercharged DCs Posted April 10, 2011 Report Posted April 10, 2011 Also, set your gain knob with an oscope to make sure your not sending clipped signals to your subwoofers.

xBIG-MIKEx Posted April 11, 2011 Author Report Posted April 11, 2011 cool, thanks. I have noticed something thats odd though. Now whenever i play it loud,with certain songs, the subs hit notes that almost sound like they are making the speakers hum / buzz. Not sure if that's normal or not. I currently have two 12s wired at 2ohms connected to one channel, and a 13" at 4ohms connected to the other channel (dunno if thats bad for amp, having two different impedences) Quote
xBIG-MIKEx Posted April 11, 2011 Author Report Posted April 11, 2011 Lanzar MXA 282 4,000 watt peak, 2 channel Quote
Kobieblu Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 Probably bad for amp I alwas thought unless it's separated kinda like the sd100.4(sample) or a five channel that was bad Quote RF love
Kobieblu Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 I thought 2 channel puts the + and - together inside so u still come together Quote RF love
