[QUOTE="<imral3>, post: 906"] I just installed two 12" MA Audio subs, enclosed in a sealed box, in my car.(Upgrade from two 10" Sony's in a bandpass). The subs are 400w max and I am currently driving each sub with it's own MTX amplifier (briged mode) which are rated at 200w max output. Eventually I will get a nice class D amp, but, for now I am stuck with the MTX amps. Anyway, now for my question(s): How do I ensure I have the proper level set for the "gain" and "bass" knobs? Is the "gain" level more of a science and the "bass" level more so a preference? Is each setting dependant upon the other's? I am currently experiencing some loss of bass and I think it is because I don't have the levels set correctly yet. Help!!!!! [/QUOTE]
