[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 1429806, member: 555320"] "Took the amp from zero to full" ?? Not sure what that means exactly. But the amp will output full power with the bass boost set to 0. Increasing the bass boost without compensating for it in the setting of the gain could lead to heavy clipping, which could subsequently blow your subs. And it's useless to turn the gain just so you can turn up the bass boost....it's self-defeating in purpose and actually decreases the performance over the entire bandwidth of frequencies. Generally, yes. Maybe you are thinking of the gain? Or maybe you didn't have the gain set properly? No. Same thing. Marketing. Increases ability to sell the amp. Increases the perceived "features" built into the amp. [/QUOTE]
