Did you by any chance disconnect the head unit to connect some RCA's for the Orion?

Oh, well I was going to say maybe when the head unit lost power it changed your EQ settings and maybe before the EQ settings were lost you had the treb up past zero and possibly loudness on, but if the head unit never lost power then that wouldn't be the case.

somebody told me at mobileone. that the jl amp has to be on a seperate power line to the battery. the voltage level had drop to low. thats why my highs was playing so low. i have to run another line to my battery for my bass or try another type of highs amp.
