Solotriggerman Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 I understand the gain (level) but what should My other setting Be? I have a FI BL15 and its in 3.8 cu ft ported to 33hz. all help is greatly Appreciated. Currently subsonic is set to 33 or so hz hard to tell Where should Phase shift, low pass, and Bass boost be? Pics below of amp.
PaulO2288 Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 I would set the subsonic filter to 20hz, BassBoost I usually have around the middle, but ive always seen people with it all the way up and no problems, so it depends. Phase leave at 0 degrees.
littleitaly1990 Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 You can lower that subsonic to around 30 if you like low notes, your choice. Low pass should be around 65-75, but that really depends on where your mids/highs go down to. Phase shift at 0. No Bass boost! A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath.

Solotriggerman Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Posted May 30, 2008 Im more worried about hurting the Sub im at 4ohms right now. Can bass boost hurt it? its in the trunk facing the passenger compartment i can ride with the seat down if need be i want more bass but electrical cant handle 1 ohm yet so im trying to figure out how to get the loudest bass without hurting the sub.
EricM9104 Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Yes bass boost tends to distort the signal. 2015 Honda Civic LX 4dr | 110k miles | Stock 1996 GMC Yukon SLT 4dr 4wd | 260k miles | JVC Head-unit
PaulO2288 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Now let me ask you this. For keeping my gains matched at my headunit and bassboost off I was hitting very lightly. So I lowered the gain another volt and added bass boost and it was 10x better and no clipping. Some amps good some amps bad. I agree bassick
