HPF makes my woofer very quiet

Bleh such a silly fault in such a specific area. you guys all use your hpf yes? part of making it souound good right?

if u are using the headunit amp to power interiors, yes... it prevents damage and makes it sound better

u can also use the deck/amp to get a custom slope. for example 80hz@-6db on headunit plus 80hz@-12db on amp equals 80hz@-18db

hmm... intresting....i always use hpf...but my mids and high amp is flat

Well, my wife likes to get into the car and touch stuff, so I set it all flat and this way if she touches anything, then it is more of a no harm no foul...fail safe if you will lol.

Bass cant move from -6. Isn't the bass setting on most decks(at least everyone ive seen) control the door speakers bass? The subwoofer level controls the actual sub bass.

spl dust is an option you can get on the coils... it's great for extra 1000 watts of power

where can i get this spl dust and how much is it. is it hard to apply? lol

correct. i stated that already.

bass level changes 60/80/100/200hz

sub level changes everything below the LPF setting (should be set at 85)

Well if thats the case then everything is fine.... if i want more i should adjust the bass eq? but i thought pumping that up is bad

so if you turn the HPF off... does the bass level go to 0?

if u want more bass u either need to turn the headunit up more, turn the gain up more... or different subs/box/bigger amp.

an eq should not be used to boost what is lacking... its best used to quiet whats too loud

If i turn the hpf off i am free to adjust the bass from -6 to +6 and the hz but with it on it is stuck at -6 and 60

Read my post above. If you have only two sets of RCAs, then you cannot use HPF because it will HPF all sets of RCAs. If you have 3 sets of RCAs, make sure the sub set it running to the sub amp and make sure the sub setting is set correctly.

Also, the sub out RCA's may be 2 separate mono sub out lines, and could be trying to use them as one stereo line out???
