it's hard to put into words but if I set everything flat no bass boost, bass 0, treble 0, mx off and set the gains with a DMM, rap will still be weak. Another weird thing is that I had a 250/1 and upgraded to a 500/1 and there wasn't much difference.

now I changed the JL specs of the box (width, height, depth) but I have the cubic feet to JL specs.

berea, ohio

sealed box to JL specs

I used to have a Pioneer 12" powered by a pioneer 300w amp, and rock hit harder then this JL. Thats why I think something is wrong.

I dont like the DMM method either. To be honest, out of desperation, I shut off the bass boost and turned the gains to half way and it was still weak with rock. Tried two different amps, same result.

and I don't like using bass boost at all.

bass boost on the amp. I set the gains with a DMM.

I have a 10W6 wired @3 Ohms and when I test it with a DMM it reads 2.9 Ohms. When I carefully push the cone in, I don't hear any scratching sounds at all. But when I hook it up to my new 500/1 it don't pound. I have to crank up the boost to +7 to get any bump. A 10W6 with a 500/1 should be...

I emailed JL and asked what would be the best amp for a 10w6 and I was told that the 250/1 or 500/1 would be fine. The 10w6 is rated @300w

I got it now. if the bass is not as loud as you would like, use -3dB or -6dB test tones with caution.

I set the gains correctly and I get no bass and I'm only looking for a mild thump and SQ. If I had low quality stuff I could see a problem, but I'm running a 500/1 with a 10W6. could the sub be worn and I not know it? It's wired 3 Ohm and measures 2.9 Ohms at the speaker terminals, and makes no...

I was thinking of doing a sealed enclosure against JL's reccomendation to get a Qtc of .707

Blah, blah, blah ... this speaker is better than that speaker..........why? Are we just going with the popular vote here? ........Hmmm? If your theory is correct, why did Kicker make a square sub in 2000. they sell JL audio 6x9's at walmart?? they sell Focal 6x9's at Radio Shack?? they sell...

I had a sony XM-10020 pushing two 12" and I loved it, but that was 11 years ago.
