Do you have sufficient electrical upgrades such as big 3, new bats shit like that?

 

[MTXThunder9500 10+ year member]

got the batts yes big three not yet but i wouldnt think it would make it do what its doing

do you have a dmm to set ur gains - probably a big problem here

I always just listen to 3/4 volume and set it up that way - dmm is the most accurate.

 

[MTXThunder9500 10+ year member]

naw i dont have one of those i usually do what you do

What HU do you have? If you have a HU with a 2v preout, that would require you to turn up your gains to match the HU.

Set your gains correctly as a first step.

No idea, other than that........Check all your wiring? My gain is all the way down, and I get plenty of bass, to the point where I dont think my subs can take much more.

maybe your sub(s) is not wired to the right ohms?
