[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 419551, member: 544843"] All right sorry for more discussion on this dead thread. =/ I just spent a few minutes messing with it, and discovered that I can get it to sound the way I want it by using the PREOUT: S/W setting (instead of FULL), and setting it at 125Hz with a +6 (kept my amp at 160Hz to cover for what the head unit misses, like someone said). I'm ASSUMING this "+6" is the same thing as the NonFad +6, which would mean it's not going to hurt my equipment. If it's different, tell me! My EQ-EX and loudness and all that crap is off, but my custom EQ is +2 bass, +0 mid +0 high. If I want a more dramatic boom I can knock the low end to +4. Is this...bad? Am I going to blow anything? I will very rarely have the volume above 40, and probably never above 45. The amp sensitivity is around 1.9 or 2.0. It's impossible to tell where 2.2 is on the amp dial, since it doesn't have any markers besides 4.0 and 0.2. The only reason I can figure where 1.9 is is because it's right in the middle (if my math is correct). In my experience the sensitivity knob is the single most sensitive and effective bass adjustment you can do, however, sadly it also is a way to quickly trash the amp. Someone please tell me I'm NOT going to trash my amp (again).
