Phoenix Gold Phorum

Hey Guy's looking for feedback from current Elite.5 owner/dealer/installers on the sub section gain settings. What position on the gain you are set at to get the woofer excited? I'm not a bass head but I have to set my gain dial @ 12 O'clock to excite my JL 12W3-2 woofer. The signal is coming from an Alpine PXA-H800 processor. Reason I am asking has to do with me getting my car ready for sale. I removed the Elites & replace them with some Kicker ZX series amps. I was surprised at how little I had to raise the gain "9 O'clock position" on the Kicker ZX-700.5 to get the JL woofer excited. Just want to make sure this is the norm for the Elite.5.

between input/equipment/music format listened too its too hard to tell what the gan setting should be. a lot of other amps will have them super sensitive.

I have mine reasonably high. That means I have low settings at the head unit. If I need to show off I can crank it from head. I just went from a 4ohm to a 2ohm sub and sound output is noticeably different. Just set it where it works. All amps are different.
