[QUOTE="Bradshaw, post: 8321053, member: 663213"] Hey y'all, I recently got a 12" Alpine Type-R SWR-1223D and an Alpine MRP-M450 amp. My deck is a Kenwood KDC-MP735U. The manufacturr recommendations for the sub in a sealed enclosure is 14.4.5"x10.5" or 0.90 gross volume and 0.75 net. The box I put it in is 17"x17x11.5". The box also has a 1" slant on both sides so the bottom is 11.5" whereas the top is 9.5" for a gross volume of 1.7 and net volume of 1.25 if I'm not mistaken. The trouble im having is where to set all my levels as I'm somewhat of a novice and honestly I'm afraid to mess with amp settings cause i love that alpine. Can any of y'all recommend a good setup with the nobs. Gain.. Where should I set this? Bass EQ... 0dB, 6dB or +12dB? Crossover frequency... Anywhere between 50 and 200Hz. I have my Type-R set at 2ohms. In case it matters, this is how i have my Kenwood set: Bass: -8 Treb: +8 Mids: +6 Sub output: 0 Bal: 0 Fade: 0 Any help would be most appreciated. [/QUOTE]
