[QUOTE="thund3rstruck, post: 6973595, member: 625530"] Hi guys, Last week I installed a new audio system as a gift for my wife in her car. I installed a JVC head-unit from Crutchfield, and an amp and a 10" Pyle band pas sub from amazon. I got it all installed and running ok but unfortunately the wife hates it because she listens to country music and the bass is so deep that it overpowers all the other tones in the music, including the vocals. She's not against bass, in fact she likes it but only when it accentuates music and doesn't drown out everything else. Can anyone give me some advise on how I might configure or tweak the amplifier so that it still gives great bass but doesn't drown out everything else? When I turn off the 'bass boost' setting the amp doesn't seem to put out any bass and when its on it feels like an earthquake in there! Here's the amp I installed: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000CHRK6S/?tag=caraudiocom-20"]Pyle PLA2200 2-Channel 1400-Watt Bridgeable Mosfet Amplifier[/URL] I'm thinking about replacing the factory speakers so maybe I can balance out all that bass with some dedicated treble?
