    Simmer down Taylor. Many MANY people are misinformed or have no idea how to properly set Xovers for a good balanced musical response. Hell, it took me 10 years to figure out I had sharp valleys in my frequency response because I had crossed them out of existence.



    Stupid Loud.

    Your post about leaving an entire octave out just seemed like you were.

    This is my guess. Some stock HU's have a specific output for subs. I would turn that lpf back up to ~100hz and see if you're getting a ton of output around 100hz and very little below 50hz. To me, that would be a red flag that the HU has a built-in hpf. See if it has a different output for subs. Just my best guess without knowing much about the installation.
