hazestorm23 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 I tend to not use bass boost at all . If your amp is set up right you shouldn't even need it so I always turn mine all the way down .
hazestorm23 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 Bass boost also can cause clipping noooo good. If your really needing the urge to use bass boost you probably just need a bigger amp
Azagtoth502 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 I assume because it's the more common tone in much music. pa-pa-platypus sorry not everybody has a companies nuts so far down their throat they catch every drop ball sweat when it falls

If your really needing the urge to use bass boost you probably just need a bigger amp thats not the point of this thread. the point of this thread is why do 90% of the amps out there have the bass boost hard set to 45hz
RooTxBeeR Posted August 26, 2013 Report Posted August 26, 2013 Hey haze, he's not asking what it does. Read the question, he's asking why almost all amps have the bass boost set to 45hz. And to answer you OP, I have no idea, azagoth is probably onto something there lol On 11/20/2012 at 8:54 PM, AMI CUSTOMS said: Turned mine up today at a light, guy next to me his steering wheel started moving and he looked over at me like I was a magician lol.

Smoove Posted August 27, 2013 Author Report Posted August 27, 2013 Bass boost also can cause clipping noooo good. If your really needing the urge to use bass boost you probably just need a bigger amp LOL, the bigger amp would require a bigger sub on my current working system. I am not using my RF bass knob. I was looking at the specs on an NS-1 ans saw that it even had a bass knob @ 45hz and starting wondering why 45hz was the magic number for all the amp manufacturers. 2 Team Fi 15's v1 2 DD M5's 970amps of Alt 6th order blowthroughThe truck Blowthrough build : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/155555-smooves-1996-chevy-ext-cab-c1500-slow-build/The 350z build : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/170694-smooves-2003-nissan-350z/ My FB page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Smooves-Car-Audio-and-performance/719746144805343 Team Fi Audio http://www.ficaraudio.com/
hazestorm23 Posted August 27, 2013 Report Posted August 27, 2013 True my mistake sorry. And I believe its because most subs can't pick up anything lower than that and I believe its 40hz that most are set on

My bad once again and I I meant to say 40 to 45 is the center of what usually lower bass frequencies run through
