Silver Member Username: Vtouch06Q-TowN, PiStoLvAniA Post Number: 139 Registered: Nov-07 | ok i have the Pioneer Premier Deh-p780mp headunit and i was playin around with the audio settings to make it sound better, like i put loudness on, vocals +6 and sla -2, i came across the subwoofer options it says subwoofer 1 i turn it on. then subwoofer 2 its for cut off frequencies...so i had it at 0 then i changed it to +6 and i noticed my subs sounded better and hit harder. is it ok to have it set like that? i have an hdc315 my gain is set half way on the amp, i have a kicker zx1000.1. thanks guys |

I always tell people to set gain the sub level all the way up, do the only way it can go is down and the won't clip the amp. And you didn't set your gain did you? If you did you wouldn't have said its "half way"  |

Plus I havn't blown a sub or amp ever and I've been going for about 6 years, while competing. So I think I've done all right so far, lol. |
