CFAIST Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) Sounds like clipping to me. No need to kill an innocent sub. See if you can find someone with an o-scope or a dd-1. You dont have the gain or bass boost cranked up do you? Ive seen it come from cranking up the bass on the deck also. As a rule of thumb I always put the bass on the deck at zero and turn all the bass boost off wheter it be on the deck or the amps. Edited June 29, 2012 by CFAIST Quote C.A.R.
