Finally got a taramps. Disappointed in low bass frequencies.

[Windy Lows]

So I saved up and got a taramps md 1800.1 I upgraded from a infinity kappa k1000. I immediately noticed that the lower bass frequencies (35 and below) seems significantly quieter on the taramps compared to the infinity. Overall the taramps is definitely louder, but I really only like low frequencies. Do certain amps have a better lower frequencies than others? If so, what are the best amps for low frequencies around 2000 rms?

Set your HPF lower.

sounds like a settings issue man. My buddy's burban does a 155 at 17hz with taramps.

He has 12 15s... he could do a 150 below 20hz with head unit power Lol

My hpf is all the way down as low as it goes. 80hz. It's literally night and day compared to the infinity amp

thats not right dude you have the high pass too damn high if your high pass is 80hz its literally cutting off every frequency under 80 hz thats why you get zero lows.

There's high pass filter thats 10 to 80hz put that at 10.
There's low pass filter, put that at 80.

That's what I meant. The subsonic is at 10 hz and the other one is 80hz. Basically high pass and low pass are both turned all the way to the left. The low notes are there, they just don't sound no where near as loud as they did on the infinity amp. So are there any amps that produce lower frequencies better than others? Or perhaps my amp is bad?

Putting a full range(high/band pass crossover) amp in the place of a mono block will yield results that definitely vary if comparing against the two. These crossover points for your new amp have slopes :
Frequency Response at Full Range: 10Hz to 20KHz (-3dB)
Crossover High Pass (HPF) Variable: 10Hz to 80Hz (-12dB)
Crossover Low Pass (LPF): Variable: 80 Hz to Full (-12dB)
Bass Boost: 0 to 10.5dB (50Hz)

The bass are stronger under 40hz

It's a full range amplifier. It's frequency response is 10hz-20khz

Can ya

It's a full range amplifier. It's frequency response is 10hz-20khz

Send it back and get a bass 3k?

Where is the level knob set at?

There isn't a bass knob

hey bro my down4sound jp23s i have two but when i had one it hit lows so good wether u have 1 or 2 i guess alot of ppl who tryed both said jp 23 has lower more bass output
