what should i have my sub pass on the headunit to? i can choose from 50 60 70 80 90 100...etc i would think I need to have it at 50, and then just use the amp to control it? maybe ill go buy a couple bags of polyfill and see if it helps. i dont know if its a pre-fab or if somebody built it. its a go...

ok so i figured it out. u have to have the subs disconnected to read the voltage. the highest 4/4 read something like 134 and the level i set mine at was 74. i assume my amp puts out around 1400 rms. i hear thats not irregular for the xenons. i put the LPF at 80 and the sub at 20 still doesnt seem a...

yeah i dont have the manual for the amp, and i was using a 50hz sine wave @ 0db. i think it was at 0db anyway.

and thanks for the patience guys. Im really trying to read and figure this stuff out. please be patient

so poking the leads at the amp is prolly the wrong way right? to set gains?

do i disconnect the speaker wire from the box, and test it there?

ive already replaced the sub. it actually came like that. you say turn subsonic filter to 20 well the range is from 5 to 55 so turn that 3/4 the way up and LPF on the amp says 30 to 300. but should I just use my headunit for the LPF and set it at 50? 60? 70? 80? and ive tried to set my gains with a ...

also can i tune my system? i bought the bass mechanik - sonic overload " cd.

replaced the sub and am not going to try and tune the subs to 69.28 for the voltage. ill be doing it by playing a 50hz sine wave at 0db. I turned the gain all the way up [thats when the subs get loud. they are 600rms a piece so thats prolly why] and the bass is at 0. i just dont know if i should set...

I have a headunit with 4V preouts. shouldnt need a line driver. also, i opened the box to see why one was looking like it was hitting harder, and the part that connects to the metal frame that the wires go thru is loose. half of the wavy flat thing [spider?] is loose. i can pull the cone upwards and...

well if i have my deck 3/4 the way up i have to have the gain on the amp all the way up before i start hearing some bass. 3/4 up you can hardly hear the subs playing.




what can i do to check my wiring? I can take pics and post em in ten or so minutes

and what kinda settings are good for this amp/subs combo? I have a vented box dont know if it was a prefab or built to spec. sounds decent tho. would like to build a box for my svt focus hatchback. but until then, maybe i can take measurements and post on here? see if you can see what hz its tuned f...

it seems like the sub on the left is hitting harder than the one on the right. both wired up the same. like this... sub 1 vc1 + to vc2 - then vc1 - and vc2 + to the speaker box terminal i did this to both subs and then ran each +,- to its own +,- on the amp. im going outside right now to put the + a...

well i kinda had my gain all the way up [thought subs could take it]
but i think i was clipping it with the bass boost and gain

had the light come on and blink so i turned teh sub level down on my deck.


didnt really understand that tutorial

how do i set all the other knobs? or should i keep them all turned down and use the headunit instead?

okay. i noticed some noise coming from my brand new 12" sounded like a rattle almost. hoping its teh speaker wire on the inside of b ox. anyway, how can i set gains with dmm? i cant figure out how to sq rt the voltage or whatever. my set up is..... PG xenon 1200.1 PG rsdC 12" DVC 4ohm [600...
