Sammitch0 Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 If the gain is 3/4 up and that woofer is barely moving something is seriously wrong, that woofer should be about blown at 3/4 volume.

assault14 Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Alrite i got it working a bit better now. i have it at 1/2 gain and its pushin with the bass db setting to 1/4 but for a normal bass feel i need the volume up to 30/40 and with my old kicker comp 12 it would only need to be 18/40.

209er Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 the thicker wires produce more heat witch lesser power is allowed through in sence.... better off getting car batt thinner strands get your self 2 guage wire Quote <p>Pioneer AVIC 6000 NEX, JBL 660c Components - FI SP415- Arc audio xdi2000.1- Xs Power- 0 gauge, Big 3 Upgrade Dc Power xp270 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be playing better the more i play it. im still just a little conserned about the speaker wire size i have witch im not too sure its like 10 or 12g, as well as my gain, bass db, and the other settings.
