LoudBimmer Posted September 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 the port is plenty big. Did you meter to check where you're peaking now? It should be quite a bit below 49. Not yet, just installed it yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundownz Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) Adjust the gain -- DMM method doesn't work very well, IMO. If you have NO voltage drop you aren't getting much power. The 4th order probably has a nice box rise across most of the bandwidth as well.

AA98hoe Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Find your peak freq with the box then adj gain be careful u won't hear subs distort and will blow them easy. As far as voltage drop box rise is most likely the culprit.
