Can't figure out what it is.....

So...my amp stopped working a couple months ago, sent it off to get repaired. Since then, I added a new HU(Pioneer DEH-P510UB) and a 2400 in the back. After getting my amp back the other day, I put everything back in my car and after playing around with all the settings, I can't get it to play any lows or highs at all. I'm not sure what it is. Though, it is twice as loud before, it'll only play between 35-55Hz, everything else is super quiet.

The settings I have set right now; LPF and HPF on HU are set to 80. Same with my amp. SSF set around 30. Is it possible that the filters are overlapping, causing a problem?

Thanks.

Ha sorry, I guess it didn't. What i'm trying to say is that it's not playing as low or as high as it used to. So i'm wondering what my filters should be on since I got a new HU.

If you can turn off the low pass xover on the amp, try that.

You're using a lowpass on both the HU and amp from the sound of it, and cascading xovers isnt a good idea because they almost never are set at the exact same frequency.

That's what I was thinking. Though, how do I turn the low pass xover on the amp since it doesn't have any switches or anything?
