[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 2439527, member: 555320"] The "bass boost" is essentially nothing more than a single band EQ in the bass frequency that can only be boosted, not cut (in most instances). Whether or not you need any depends on the response of your sub. If the bass boost is centered at 45hz, and you have a null in your response at or close to 45hz...using a db or so of boost isn't a bad thing. Where most people run into issues is when they think it needs to be set to +12db. [/QUOTE]
