[QUOTE="Ultrabb, post: 8660547, member: 675842"] Ok, so my setup is a -Sundown Audio u-12 wired to 1ohm -Skar RP-2000.1D -Line output converter coming from stock subwoofer harness -Lincoln navigator w/stock head unit Now that we've got that out of the way, I got the skar amp recently and I installed it. I went to set my gains (I'm doing it with the little speaker and the capacitor method) as soon as I get the gain more than half way it sounds like the subwoofer is bottoming out? I'd suspect this to be distortion, so I adjusted the gains on my line output converter until no distortion was present. I tried again. Same result. Normally I wouldn't be complaining, but something is wrong when a sundown u12 can't even get remotely loud without some form of bass boost on higher than rms power? -Ps the box is to spec (2 feet cu) Any help would be much appreciated.
