[QUOTE="doox00, post: 5848736, member: 608758"] I recently installed a complete new system in my passat sedan. The system consists of Alpine 9887 HU Alpine MRP-F600 4 channel amp for components, active off HU Alpine MRP-M500 mono amp Image Dynamics CTX65CS components Image Dynamics IDQ12V3.D4 12" Sub I am running the single 12" sub in a sealed enclosure, 1.04 cubic feet. The problem is in order to get a decent amount of bass out of it I have to crank bass settings up on the hu, but then the sub will cut out, amp does not turn off, but no more music, have to turn the hu off and back on to get the amp to come back on (just the mono amp, no problems with the 4 channel). I have the bass boost on the amp itself off, gain is about 3/4 up though, anything less and I get basically no bass out of it. I have played with gain down and bass boost on amp turned up a little and the situation is even worse. I used to have a single 12w6 in sealed box with an old punch 100 dsm amp and got considerably more bass out of it then this new setup. ideas what to look at? [/QUOTE]
