Dude2800 Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 I was helping a buddy set his gains with a dd1. He said his preamp voltage is 2.2V. We had everything set flat and he doesn't have enough gain left to set it up for SPL. Could that be what the bass boost switch is for? His head unit showed no distortion.

Ahmed Johnson Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Where did you set the gain at? What was the final voltage comng from th HU? Bass boosting is not to make up for lack of HU voltage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefourth Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 Time for a new headunit, or a linedriver. Quote Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do thatI can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream. oh lawd.
