[QUOTE="TaylorFade, post: 7978249, member: 618111"] The bass level, I'm assuming, is your EQ. It's ok to use EQ as long as you're not boosting the crap out of the frequencies. You want to try to cut peaks instead of boosting dips in the response. Bass boost in any form should be avoided if possible. It's usually just a boost centered around 45hz anyway. No thanks. Some HU's sub level is just an attentuation. Meaning that max level is basically what the HU pre out voltage is. So, if your HU is a 4v, then +15 on your sub level is 4v. Not all HU are like this though and I can't tell you if yours is. What I'd do is set it up at 0db and have the +/- 15 as headroom. [/QUOTE]
