jesterjames Posted August 15, 2009 Report Posted August 15, 2009 didnt know how else to title it, heres the situation i just removed my 2.6 cube box tuned to 43HZ with 2 W3011 12's in it i just installed a DC LVL4 15 in a 4.3cube box tuned to 35hz both subs were powered by BXi1606D the w3011's were ran at 2ohms and saw ~850wrms and the LVL4 sees 1400wrms at 1ohm My new sub hits the lows alot harder, but at 60+hz hardly makes any sound... the difference is ridiculous, am i missing something?... amp settings are the exact same i checked, HU settings are the exact same, only 2 things changed, the sub and the ohm load (2ohm now 1ohm) Is it possible my amp is having issues making power at 60+hz?

loburbon Posted August 15, 2009 Report Posted August 15, 2009 well you have one more thing that changed. the first box was tuned to 43hz and the new box is tuned to 35hz. there you go. tuning tuning tuning. different boxes tuned different. so that means different sound all the way around 2000 gmc yukon 4 sundown Zv3 15's 4 dd m2a's kenwood kdc-x994 2 batcap 4000's 1 batcap 2000 dual alts. 154@37hz and climbing http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3231683 http://www.myspace.com/torque150

loburbon Posted August 15, 2009 Report Posted August 15, 2009 im telling you its all in the box tuning. unless your crossover got turned down somehow. and box build and tuning play a hugh role in in-cabin responce. 2000 gmc yukon 4 sundown Zv3 15's 4 dd m2a's kenwood kdc-x994 2 batcap 4000's 1 batcap 2000 dual alts. 154@37hz and climbing http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3231683 http://www.myspace.com/torque150
sayhuh? Posted August 15, 2009 Report Posted August 15, 2009 Double check your low pas and subsonic and make sure that they are set accordingly. Mostly your low pass. Set it to 100hz and see if that makes a difference. It doesn't allow frequency any higher than what it is set for, so it may have gotten set to something lower than 60. Maybe? Blown
