what happens when your CD player skips and you accidentally drop a 22 hz sine bomb at an unholy volume on 7-8 year old subs? Mechanical failure floppy sub knockage on at least 2.

well...as i see the level 6 is compared to a lamborghini.....but a corvette?

i was thinking more like a chevy volt. its cute and new and "hip", but i would just rather stick my dick in a blender.........

whats your voltage at? clipping? pics? vehicle?

lower tuning is just hard. I was surprised how loud 145 sounds at 35hz, and how quiet 145 sounds at 50hz.

x2 this. where is your ground located right now? are you using the biggest wire that you can fit in the power and ground terminals on the amp? what method did you use to tune your gains? are you using bass boost on the amp or headunit or ipod?
