So i just got a Soudstream Tx.1 2000d in and it has WAY more adjustments on it then the amp i have used befor does. so befor i hook it up and mess every thing up i figured it would be a good idea to ask and see how to set up LPF HPF and all that on the amp. i do know that every one says BASS BOOT= off but its the LPF and HPF i need and the gain because i dont have a DD-1 or any accus to it and the audio shops around me still do it by ear or say turn it up all the way (wich is weared) so here is the specs for the amp (the ones i figured you would need) so please help so i dont blow something up

Set gain with dd-1 or oscope, preferably. If not that, set it with a dmm - not perfect, but it should get you in the ballpark of where it should be

Set your subsonic just beloe box tuning. I set mine by playing a 50-10hz sweep and adjust my subsonic until the subs will move as much as they can without mechanical damage

Set your lpf to between 60 and 80hz. I like mine set closer to 60 or maybe 50, but that is all personal preference

Bass boost all the way down

If you don't even have access to a dmm, you could do it by ear. You just need to know what you are listening for. Play a 40 or 50hz tone and turn the gain knob up until a slight harshness in the signal is heard, then turn it down until that goes away. If you know what to listen for, you can get it pretty close to what it needs to be

Only some amps will make that noise. Only 2 amps I've ever done, and none of the ones I've owned have made a buzzing noise when they clip
