carlosg_313 Posted May 19, 2011 Report Posted May 19, 2011 do u turn the sub level on the headunit up the whole way? and do i use my bass boast control knob? If you're looking to keep your sub in good condition, leave "Bass" on the headunit at 0 and turn down bass boost on the amp to 0. Also, set your gains with an oscilloscope (or at least a digital multimeter) If it's not loud enough for you when set properly, then you've caught the disease and will have to upgrade equipment. Don't worry, it happens to all of us lol aw man i guess i need to get a couple of 12w7s then lol this setup i love for listening to everyday on music but when i want to blast it it aint as loud as i want but i reckon i just need to go ahead and buy another sub and amp and be done with it lol how much did you spend on that 12w7? Quote How do the Japanese feel about bass?You know that since 03/11/11 Progene? I just saw that stuff on CNN. They said it makes your junk shrink all up. lol.im pretty sure the op wont even notice if it gets even smaller. Refs - Pstone11, porksoda, coleman
kr15 Posted May 19, 2011 Report Posted May 19, 2011 Somewhere around 140 would be my guess, you will essentially fight box rise and voltage drop with that particular amp which will help...the key will be knowing your resonant and playing there..that can literally be the differnce in 5db locally a guy who had 1 12w7 and not enough power did about a 134/135...JG23 on here had 2 of em and 2 1000/1s and he was doing like high 46s Quote Team Flex Issues Low tuning > God 2011 CALI AS1 STATE CHAMP

SI Guy Posted May 20, 2011 Report Posted May 20, 2011 I built an IASCA rookie setup for my friends Pontiac GXP with a 13W7 and a Diablo HF1000. He hit a 144.3 with the door open on a test tone. With the right box, you could get a 145-146 without to much trouble. Quote
turnin26s Posted May 22, 2011 Author Report Posted May 22, 2011 Well i ended up hitting a 138.0, i prolly could have got a lil better but i wasnt sure on how loud to turn it up and i didnt want to blow it ya kno Quote
