drewb53 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Okay well i am kinda new to the whole car audio game, and i was wondering i have a kenwood amplifier and it did not come with a bass knob, and i was wanting to buy one. It has the telephone style jack and i was wondering will any bass knob that has this setup work, or would i have to buy the kenwood one? i would like to know this because the kenwood setup one does not say that it includes the amp that i own. please i know this is a stupid question probabily but i was wondering Quote 2003 Chevy Blazerkenwood headunit4 ga. kicker wiringAQ1200D amp2 12" DC LVL 3'sStinger Volt MeterMy Build LogBlazer is no longer.

Derrick824 Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Not all bass knobs are the same. Buy one that's specific for your amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehoe92 Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 darvex has a bass knob that goes in line of your rca's. its made by peripheral. thats inline which means it cuts the bass off completely from your amp. some of the "telephone cables" have a different order of the wires which messes with things so its best to buy the one for your amp. unless the amps are made by the same company which is difficult to tell.

moose Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 darvex has a bass knob that goes in line of your rca's. its made by peripheral. i love the inline RCA contollers much better than the actual bass knobs!! peripheral has them and so does PAC. i use the PAC LC-1 in most of my installs. they are like ten bucks. very easy to add on. I think you would like it! moose Quote J.A.M AUDIO Owner North Texas Authorized DC Sound Lab Dealers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowroll Posted September 14, 2009 Report Share Posted September 14, 2009 thats inline which means it cuts the bass off completely from your amp. Well yeah thats the point of a bass knob.
