2001JeepGrandCherokee Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Well, as topic says when I have the volume low at like 12-18 the bass hits REALLY hard. Anything above that and it seems to be a little quieter. Could this just be that there is less noise going on? Im confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozenbritches Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Maybe it is the settings you need to fix...such as turn the mids amp down, that way you can crank it, then slowly turn the bass knob up so more power is pushed towards the woofers... It's what I did, caused a much more, tighter and harder hitting bass...of course I still get more voltage drops but that will change soon gotta add that second batt........and big 3 Quote 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo Hifonics Brutus Bxi2607D (FRIED...saving for ZX2500.1) 2 15" 07 L7's ported at 32hz Xplod POS for the MIDS, which are Memphis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr.db Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Some radios reduce the bass as the volume increases. And if you are useing any kind of boost at the deck (loud on),just about every deck out there only uses that feature till the half way point.So yes you would have more boost under half volume...thats why you tune your system with everything flat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigPimpin91 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Share Posted August 4, 2008 Your gains might be a little clipped. I accidentally set mine to high and all of my power was at 13 of 62 and any higher than that it sound like hot garbage.

I can try to tune it differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
