Decaf Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 holy jebus im rolling.... this is funny bass boost can be used for rock or quieter music, you should NEVER need it for rap music, EVER. you will find some companies limit it to 6dB to PREVENT user error because people think a knob magically makes bass better. Bass Boost is a One Band EQ, usually centered at 45hz. Why, because kick drums are right there and a lot of rap beats fall there. The gain on the amp boosts all frequencies the amp plays evenly, using bass boost will ruin that evenness by boost only a small section of the overal signal it amplifies. Example, song with 30hz note, 45hz note, 60hz note all even dB signal before being amplified. If you choose to use bass boost you just ruined that evenness of sound and can easily clip the amplifier. If you use the DD-1 to set gains with a bass boost knob you will end up with quieter lows and high bass, but loud mid-sub bass(40-50hz), this is something undesired.

Cool, guess im doing my own thing, and somthing correct, for me,.... the only time i dont use my PEQ is when i play it 1 of the 4 "rap" songs i have. Thanks Decaf, and again..remember, not everyone here listens to rap, or wants high ass spl, or turn heads... the heads i turn, actually sit in the damn car... so.. .again... TO EACH THIER OWN....
