OrionStang Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Guys, about the sub level. Play around with it. On my old x-794, I could turn sub level all the way up. On my new x-896, if I go past '0' on sub level, I get distortion even with zero gain. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Let me be more specific. When checking with rca's direct to unit, I could not go past 27-28 volume with sub level over zero. I think Kenwood changed their output to max out at zero instead of +15. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
