[QUOTE="av83, post: 7766153, member: 640058"] [quote name='zorphon']Hey all. ([USER=640058]@av83[/USER]) So I replaced my Sony Xplod 800w max 2-channel amp with an Audiopipe APSM-1500. My Sony amp was causing some dimming problems with my headlights but I got that fixed by resetting the ground. Now my voltage never drops below 13.7. That being said, my new APSM-1500 hits about half as hard as my Sony Xplod, despite giving more (and cleaner) power. What gives? I set the gain with a DMM so the gain should be set perfectly, yet I have to crank it to 38 out of 50 to get as much bass as I did at 27 out of 50 on a supposedly worse amp. Thanks in advance.[/QUOTE] You could have a sub out of phase (hooked up - to +, and + to -), it would cause one to cancel out the other. [/QUOTE]
