Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4887 Registered: Oct-05 | this thing is awesome. it really brings out the low hitting bass. damn i was so surprised at how much this thing makes the bass sound good. now my re sx 18 sounds like an awesome sq sub that hits real low. i mean low. i couldn't believe my ears. even at low volume this sounds awesome. also the bass sounds more heavy and strong. after hearing it for 30 minutes, i give it 2 thumbs up.   excuse the messy wiring. i just wanted to try it out first. i will organize everything this weekend. |

Silver Member Username: RiskybPost Number: 123 Registered: Feb-06 | I was always under the impression it would add bass to any song not necessarily make it louder but I have heard that it can increase sub output 3-12 db that true? |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4890 Registered: Oct-05 | its not that its louder. it makes the bass louder on songs that lack bass. |
|
Silver Member Username: SplmonsterNowhere, OH USA Post Number: 365 Registered: May-06 | ive read and heard that it can add up to 3 dbs max so ur 3-12 is out of the question lol, but FINALLY ive been looking for a review from someone i know and trust. thansk chad, what 12v did u use? |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4892 Registered: Oct-05 | here is my full review on this...... i was listening to all kinds of music on my way to work today. rock, rap, reggae, corridos, and some easy listening. the epicenter isn't for spl. don't think that you will gain some dbs from this unit. for example: the bass mekanik cd hits with or without epicenter. but with the epicenter, the lower notes do hit with more authority. the epicenter will bring out the bass guitar sound in rock music. even the older cds which the recordings were'nt too good back then, the epicenter will brings that out. i set off a car alarm in the parking lot playing a song called "i'll be there for you " by bon jovi. lol. i was suprised. the reggae and other music which may lack bass due to the way it was recorded, the epicenter will make it shine. alot of reggae music already have good bass but there are some older ones that don't. it also comes with a bass remote so you can have more bass or less bass at the touch of your finger. lol. in conclusion, this unit is awesome. i don't know why i haven't used this in the past. |

Gold Member Username: Killerzracing71Fredericksburg, Virginia United states Post Number: 1105 Registered: Aug-05 | i dont listen to music that lacks bass ( just my preferece) so dont think i would benifit from it....... but it does make bass come through just like whut i can do on acid pro......i did that to a couple swizz beatz songs cuz in my opion they lack low end bass.... |
|
Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4897 Registered: Oct-05 | if the song already has heavy bass then it will just make it sound better. especially the lower frequencies. i noticed that the lower frequencies sound more deep and heavy. |

Gold Member Username: B101Queen City, NC USA Post Number: 3523 Registered: Sep-05 | chad also remember who told u about the epicenter  and yes it reproduces harmonics in the lower freq by reading the upper freqs... anyways wsup? just got home from the club, kinda fuped.. lol |
