[QUOTE="elementxero, post: 1741422, member: 567619"] Hey I bought a D612 and a 1000bd from 2 people on here. Just hooked everything up to do a dry run before I run the cables neatly and the output was awful, regardless of gain or volume. Sloppy and not loud. Only other sub I've owned was an L5 on a JBL 600.1 in a sealed box and it sounded WAY better both in loudness and clarity. And I know that can't be right. 1000 rockford fostgate watts to a diamond audio sub should sound better than ghetto watts to a kiddie boom sub. I cranked the gains a little bit (not all the way of course) and the cone was moving ALOT, like 'freeair' alot. But not producing solid bass. Couldn't even hear it from inside the car. No leaks in the box. How can a great sub getting 1000watts sound worse than my Kicker eBay special? The amp is very used and pretty beat up (buyer's remorse ftw), but as long as it powers on it shouldn't matter should it? Thoughts? -ex- PS- I'm out a grand for a system that sounds like ***. WTB cyanide capsule. [/QUOTE]
