Gold Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 1949 Registered: Mar-06 | Phase set at 0 or 180. what ever makes the sub move out when it hits is the right phase, Unless your sub is inverted, then you want it reversed. Subsonic on. It cuts all useless freqs from playing. And your amp choice. Still in the entry playground. Step up to the minors. |

Gold Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 1955 Registered: Mar-06 | It all depends. Look at the sub. Is it moving in or out when it hits? If it moves out, the switch is set. If it moves in, put it in the other position. Its like changeing the + and - speaker wire to the sub, with a switch, not by rewiring. |

Silver Member Username: Sinful_systems70Post Number: 353 Registered: Nov-06 | Pioneer Premier 3000Spl = inexpensive but good. I have two and very pleased. Over 140 SPL on Epic-160 meter under the dash in passenger side. Cheaper than L7 but just as good in my opinion. Both are good SPL. You will be pleased either way. JMO |

Silver Member Username: Sinful_systems70Post Number: 354 Registered: Nov-06 | Oh yeah, Even though neither is SQ sub, the Pioneer Premiers have a little better SQ than L7 in my opinion. JMO |
