I hooked up my subs to 1 amp because I didn't have RCA Y connectors. Anyways, I went from 2k to 6k and I feel as if it hit harder at 2k than it does at 6k.....both subs are movin. Anyone got any videos of how 6k should be like. It doesn't feel like 6k for some reason.

Their wired right, I'm positive of that, I just don't understand why there isn't a big difference.

that I did not do, the gain is set at like under 1/4ths. Barely turned it on because I was scared to clip the subs. Also my amp input is 5volts and my hu puts out 6.5volts. So thats why I wasn't sure if I should put it up and all that.

when you use a y adaptor it seems like i need to turn the gain up more than usual. anyways as long as you set your gain right with the dmm you shouldn't be clipping your subs.

How do I set the gain with a DMM, probaly go get one tomarrow. Because the gain is real LOW! when I had my hifonics with the same HU the gain was like 40% not nearly half way. And on my massives, their at like 20% or 15%, not sure if I can go up any higher. So yeah, how do I set the gain with a DMM and what do I look for?

do you think that 260 amps is enought alternator juice? i'm using a kx2500.1 on a 240 amp alternator and it uses all of it. i guess your extra battery helps and its not like you will listen at full volume all the time right? or will you....

I don't play it really loud at a stop, probaly at like 12volume out of 40. and I still get looks lmao. I was thinking well its not loud, and I pulled up next to someone but was still behind them, and they still turned around. But when cruisin I have no problems at all.
