ehall8702 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 my sub amp doent have either a subsonic filter nor a bass boost on it (Mmats Pro Audio D1600.1) but i have an old skool line driver with Both adjustments on it, i also have a single DIN EQ with boost also. I havent had a chance to hear what my subs sound like yet with this new amp but at the moment my Orion XTR Pro 15's are in the smallest box they are deigned for. I do plan on building a speced Poerted enclosure oon though. Will it benbefit me to use either my line driver or eq for bass boost? Will it be ok when i build the ported enclosure? my amp is about 1200 RMS @ 1ohm @ 13.9V and subs are 500 RMS and 1000 Max. I know subsonic will be good in the ported box for sure though but not sure about boost. 2009 Silverado 1500, 7.5" lift, 37x12.50r17s, Built Gen 4 5.3L ( 4.8l flat pistons, decked 243s, SS2 Cam, Pac 1218 springs, ported intake, 120mm TB, Long tubes, 3" duals HP tuner software tuned by me), 4l80e swapped and 4.56 gears.

soundstream15 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 Never use bass boost. Unless you like smoke..

ehall8702 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Report Posted January 11, 2013 so subsonic filter and line driver and im all in? So boost is good for what? making cheap crap get a little louder?

cloud77 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Posted January 22, 2013 None of their amps have subsonic filter, bass boost exc. just make sure you have the crossover frequency set to your liking. You dont need to increase rca V unless you are running off the stock headunit. See how it sounds without these pieces of equipment before you add them. 2004 Grand Prix GT (2) 12" RE XXXs (04/05 XBL^2) 5 cu. ft tuned @ 35 Hz MMATS HD4000.05 MMATS SQ4100 Infinity Kappa components Juice Box black cherry Duralast platinum group 34 1/0 KNU OFC, 2/0 welding Singer 250A

Carbon Posted January 27, 2013 Report Posted January 27, 2013 Damn I was like hell yes! I can convince a fellow car enthusiast to go boosted! Do not use bass boost.
