does anyone know how to tune this **** thing to get the lows outta the regular speakers?

And yes ive read the hell outta the manual. now i can tune them out if i turn the bass all the way down on the EQ settings but then the sub wont beat since it then takes the lows out of it too.

I've messed with the freq cut offs and it doesnt seem to make any diff.

that should take car of most of it. are you running your speakers off of the deck or an external amp? and how soon does it disort (how far can you turn up the deck before it distorts) ?

speakers are drivin off the HU.

I can turn it up to around 18-20 before the lows start killing the speakers.

i would love to find a way to get the lows outta the speakers and only play through my sub. Like i stated before once i start turning down the bass on the Settings then my subs doesnt really beat at all, even with the woofer setting at 15.

an amp would be your best bet, and your biggest upgrade.

Turn the treble up turn the bass down and adjust your subwoofer setting to 15.

my truck was good to 35/35 with almost no distortion in the door speakers.

weird when i do that, it really doesnt beat that hard, but the second i turn up the bass on the Eq it beats like twice as hard.
