rambo.93 Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 hey guys, so i have a question...I bought an amp used from some guy and he had it powering three 12s. it was pretty loud and stuff so i figured everything was fine. well i just finished building a box for my subs that i also bough used from someone else and i tuned the box to about 35h Hz.. everything sounds awesome except that it sounds like its not hitting the lows very good. although the problem could be any number of things, i think its the amp. When I adjust the low pass and sub sonic settings nothing changes at allI. When I change the bass boost and some other setting that is labeled "level" with max and min, its changes the output a ton, but still doesnt help the subs hit the lows. any help or advice would be great! thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REVOofRustler Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Well for one, that "level" control is your gain. If you can, set it with a DD-1 or an O-Scope. 2002 Dodge Dakota 4.7 club cab - Sold 2004 Audi S4 Avant - Fi and Crescendo - Stock Bose System - http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/147725-2002-dodge-dakota-end-of-the-road/?hl=%202002%20%20dakota 136.4 Sealed @ 29hz 137.0 Drivers window open @ 26hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmw5e Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 dont try to compensate by turning your gain all the way up if the subs arent hitting llike you want, youll run into more problems than them not sounding like you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyG2 Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Make sure your bass boost is completely off on both your amp and headunit. It's possible that you have bass boost on and it's boosting your higher bass but not your lower bass. What subs do you have? Do you know the specs of your box like airspace, and your port area? *New vehicle and system coming soon.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
