Skullz Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Set your subsonic at the tuning of the enclosure and your high pass around 80hz, unless your talking about something else.

reedal Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I believe he means the overlap for the gain. You'll get mixed answers on this question. I personally prefer -10dB overlap for my sub amps, and then depending on the song and the frequencies it plays, I'll set my volume at a safe level for what is playing. Not all music is recorded or created equally, so while you can play full volume at -10dB on one, that might be too much for the next song. I do not recommend using the -15dB track at all. Just me.

reedal Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 If you have the DD-1+, then you can use it to set your overlap to -7.5dB, which I would recommend to be safer than -10dB, given the amount of difference between your amp and subwoofer RMS, especially if you are unfamiliar with your system limits. But if you do -10dB, listen for any abnormal sounds and smells, because that means you're pushing the limits of your sub and further listening at that level can damage it.
