[QUOTE="blazian87, post: 8704725, member: 574798"] Please don't set your amp gains to max. It will blow all your gear to smithereens. Cheap LOC's are known to have super weak signals, thus forcing you to max out your amp to get any output at all, if any. They are absolute crap. And I'm willing to bet your sub enclosure is too small. The only thing that can help you temporarily on output is to place your enclosure all to way to the end of your trunk lid facing sub to a rear loading wall. Still not as effective as making some key changes in your system... Most important thing to help your situation is to start with replacing stock radio with a good aftermarket headunit (ideally 4v outputs) and getting a custom built ported box for your sub. Those 2 things alone will already show you huge improvement compared to what you have. Of course upgrading amp and subs would help but the results won't be as drastic as the 2 things I mentioned. If you need any help how to go about executing this, just ask. We are happy to help. [/QUOTE]
