Setting Subsonic And Lpf


MaX

Recommended Posts

I have a AQ2200D and at the moment I have no clue where the subsonic and lowpass need to be set at. for the time being both are set at approximately the 12 o'clock position which sounds ok. But I want to be as accurate as possible with this. Any suggestions of where to put them??

The subsonic filter dampens all frequencies below where you set it so as not to unload your subs if you play a frequency below the port tuning. If it's a ported box, set the subsonic about 5hZ below the tuning frequency. If it's sealed, turn the subsonic all the way down to 20.

As far as LPF, it's almost the opposite of a subsonic. It dampens the high frequencies that a sub shouldn't play which is usually above 80hZ. Just set it around 80hZ and that should be good.

This is assuming it's a basic daily system. I'm not going to go in depth, but this is the layman explanation.

PS Don't set it by the clock hand.

Yep.

As for LPF, you should set that to around 125 just because it sounds better :) Although, 80 is perfect for most people

damn! really

still too high for me, but he might like it idk

60hz & down is for subs technically, if you're crossing over that high a lacking mid-bass may be the culprit.
