How to solve this little problem?

[fecupe2001]

Ok guys, i´m gonna try to make this short, i bought a Soundigital 8000.1 and it doesn´t have bass boost, yeah yeah i know they aren´t good, but, i compete on bass race here and i have to use the official Bass Race CD wich it has a very good 51 hz constant bass line song where my peak is, i have always use that song but now with my new amplifier, the bass isn´t that constant because i don´t have any bass boost wich allows me to get a much more constant line.

Said all that, is there any way i can fix this?? i started at 151.5 dbs last night and ended at 149.5 dbs because of this thing, i know that, if i had a bass boost, i could have ended over 150 dbs with only a little touch of boost, maybe an epicenter could fix this for me?? any ideas???

What was your previous amp? If it was an 8kw then you must have been clipping it cause theoretically this should be as loud as any other 8kw amp.

I didn´t say it isn´t louder, i just said that, because it doesn´t have bass boost, i can´t get the bass line constant like i did before, i had a DD M4 and now my car is louder by more than 2 dbs, but yes, when i had the m4 , Cadence C6 and SS 4000.1 without the bass boost activated, that song didn´t have the bass line so constant, i complety forgot about that when i was buying the SD and now, it´s loud as hell but the bass line on that song isn´t as constant as it was before and my number drops a lot because of that!!

And nop, no clipping anywhere, haven´t clipped a system since 2004 i think hehe

By constant you mean flat frequency response? Because if the frequency response is not flat, you need to get a multi band equalizer.

Remember that spanish is my language and i don´t understand what you are talking about, but i´m giving you two examples here on a couple of my vids:

1 vid: this was with my Cadence C6, same song, you can hear the bass how constant it is, perfect for bass racing

2 vid: Now you can hear the difference with same song, the bass isn´t as constant and that´s dropping my score badly, while on the first vid it drops barely because voltage drops, not the song.

it´s very difficult for me to explain what i´m trying to say hahaha, it´s something like, with the bass boost i can get the tone sitck with the next one, while now without it, the notes have a small space between them and that´s dropping my score, hope you understand what i´m saying

Look on the second video, i started 151.2 and as soon as that note ended, i droppped 0.6 dbs

I see...um hear what you mean, it dips down at the end of the note, like it should naturally, but you don't want that for bass race, you want it to be constant.

A equalizer would be a good choice, but you would have to turn the gains down so that it wouldn't clip on the louder parts, meaning that you would lose more than you gain. But if you are sure it would help, a RF 360 processor would probably work great.

Glad i could explain myself, yes you understood, and what about an epicenter? i have never used one, could that help? i really need to fix that problem this week

It may, but I would still recommend a equalizer or processor as you would have more adjustment and it could be used for many more projects in the future. And epicenters seem to have a history of blowing amps and subs.

ok ok, nice input then, i would use it only for comps tho, let´s see if i can get a borrowed processor this week

Another inputs like these ones are very welcome people, thanks for all your comments and kind help, i need some help with this right now
