[QUOTE="threedd97, post: 1637771, member: 559348"] "Breaking in" just gives a fuller sound, possibly a bit louder. You're using an xover on the sub? Why? Gain is up doesn't tell me much, don't use the punch bass if you don't have to. It is a bass boost and can only cause distortion and/or clipping. Um... what is the impedance of your sub (ohms)? You could have it on the wrong ohm load and/or not giving the sub the power it requires. That amp isn't that powerful by any means. You're lucky if you're pushing 900watts @ 4 ohms bridged. I just did some research and I THINK your sub is 4ohm SVC and the amp does 400x2 @ 4 ohms bridged so you're doing somewhere in the ballpark of 800 - 1000 watts to the sub.
