I'm using a alpine 9886 headunit that has a HPF on it. I currently have 2 10" w3v3, (powered by JL slash 500/1 v2) The problem is they are so loud and overpowering of my speakers. When I turn the HPF on though, I put it at 80hz and It cuts about 40-60% of the bass down which makes it listenable. THe problem though, is that I would like my subs a little bit louder than they are with the HPF at 80 hz (80 hz is the lowest setting HPF will go). Adjusting the bass/sub level/etc on head unit doesnt do much. I'm assuming I turn down a setting on my amp that would solve my problem? (bear with me I know little about car audio) But idk which setting that would be and I would play with it, but I don't want to screw anything up. ANy help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
