Anonymous | i have an audiobahn amp (2000 rms)and 2 15" dubs, what the hell is phase shift and what should it be at ( 0 to 180) thanx for the help |

renholder's mix Unregistered guest | It toggles the polarity of ur speaker wires' signal. Useful for when u incorrectly wire the + to - terminal and - to + terminal. So u dont have to go back and take stuff apart again..u can just flip the switch. And it can help with out of phase problems. Normally set at (0) |

Post Number: 1071 Registered: May-05 | again, it's a matter of what sounds right in your system. it's likely, however, that you have one of the subs wired incorrectly. make sure that your pos is connected to your pos and neg to neg. look at your subs and notice when the bass hits in which direction the sub moves. if it moves inward, it's wired backwards. if it moves outward, its correct. last, if you have the subs facing eachother, then reversing the polarity on one sub makes sense. remember that the waves of all your drivers should be taken into account when dealing with polarity. it's a part of tuning your system. i have one mid on each door facing each other. if i dont reverse the polarity on one driver, then they cancel each other out and the stage is very narrow. once i reverse the polarity on one driver, the stage opens up. just for example |
