Here's the setup:
Clarion DXZ785USB
Diamond Audio s600a component set (running it passively)
Orion HCCA 600D
Orion HCCA 4002
1 JL Audio 12W7 in a custom ported enclosure built to JL's specs
Problem:
Both the components and sub bottoms out only on bass songs, but it performs flawlessly on my daily music (metal, trance, rock), why is this? BTW, I am not even sending the sub it's rated power, I am sending it roughly 300 watts @ 3 Ohm, gains are set to less than half on the sub amp, bass boost is 0 across the board. Crossover settings for the component amp are set to Off, and pass through at the headunit, because I am using the passive crossovers. Max volume on the HU is 33, and tuning volume is set at 25, when demo'ing some bass tracks, both the components and sub starts bottoming out at volume 21-22.
Anyone know why?
