i know this setup is stupid but its wat i have with the budget i had right now. im planning on getting a better amp. but for now i have the 2 kicker and the audiobahn all bridged in a 5 channel kenwood amp that only pushed 300 watts to the sub. so technically each sub is only getting 100w a piece. thats barely any power. how high can i turn up my settings without getting distortion.

also my 2 12 kickers are in a ported box.

the 12 audiobahn is in a sealed box.

should i get rid of the audiobahn and just stick with the 2 kickers.

help on eq settings on the head unit

settings on the amp

and any other suggestions please help im not very good with the technical details but i know how to hook everything up

I'd get rid of the audiobahn and stick with the kickers. Usually don't mix brands like that. As far as distortion I'd go to a local shop and have them tune it and look at your amp. The eq settings should be left alone to help keep distortion away. Just my 2 cents maybe someone with more experience can chime in.

You mean you're powering to three subs (two kickers and one audiobahn) at once? Please get rid of Audiobahn and keep the same brand (two kickers). I personal strongly dislike different brands mixing together in one system.

Get rid of the audiobahn. You're probably doing more harm than good. The different parameters of the different brand subs could interfere with each other, assuming your wiring was done to get the correct impedance.

He could just post a link right here in this thread to his own eBay page advertising the sale. I've seen a guy or two try that trick......

Yeah I think it is. Click the user above mines name and view the locked thread. then go back and view the post about going around rules for selling. It's a good use of your time Kranny, I promise :)

My post was slightly filled with sarcasm...

I do not know why the forum requires a poster to have 150 posts or higher, however it's no way that any moderator can stop a poster who has less than 150 and the only way to buy from a seller is through email/PM. Moderator can't catch that, can't they?
