[QUOTE="mgzilla, post: 6747607, member: 620722"] Alright, I've got a Pioneer Premier head unit, Pioneer 3 ways in the dash, and two Pioneer 6x9 5-ways in the back. I have no subwoofers. For some reason, the lack of the bass in my car compared to other stock systems is absolutely astounding. I've been fooling with the stereo FOREVER trying to get my bass to sound good. Finally, I did something very interesting today, I put the balance all the way to the right. BAM! Awesome bass. Then, when I put it all the way to the left, BAM, awesome bass again. The closer the balance gets to the middle, the less bass I get...I'm confused though, because when I fade to just the two 6x9s, it doesn't have much bass. I think I'm coming to the conclusion that I need to amp the two 6x9s (or all 4 speakers, but i'll probably just do the back ones) but I want to confirm that if I drop money on an amp that can drive them to their RMS power that it will fix my lack of bass problem. Thank you sooooo much for the help, this problem has plagued me for so long...[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
