I really expected more from my kicker cvr 12's ......

[04prixgt04 10+ year member]

the only settings are sub filter which is off and phase 180-0 and thats at 0 . the gain is 1/4 and xover is at 75-90.

it seems like your amp should be doing the power if they are wired correctly to 2ohms...so i dont know maybe your expecting to much...also do you have a prefab box?

What are the head unit settings set like

 

[mast240 10+ year member]

75-90? thats kinda high tuning bro... i would look at more around 50-60 for those.

that and i would set your gains correctly with atleast a dmm.

what are the dimensions on your box bro?? you can have the best subs in the world, but in a shitty box, they will sound like shit

in all actuality... a system that is run properly, should have 0 settings on the HU for everything

man only 1/3 of the posts on here show up. i keep having to post several times. they are 07cvr122's 2 ohm .

I know this but does the op most the time I get in a nubees car the have everything all jacked 5 minutes later from adjusting and tuning the system sounds like a different set up

exuse the ground not being a diff. color. all i had to work with was 1 25ft piece of 4ga. i am gonna identify it with some electric tape soon. I am sure you will be able to tell which 2 are the grounds and which 1 is power. fyi i have 2 ground amp-1 and cap-1

Looks like it should be getting decently loud... You could probably take that cap completely out of the loop, they do nothing but end up causing problems.

 

[04prixgt04 10+ year member]

the only reason i have the cap is because it looks cool. l;ol

 

[dbjunior 10+ year member]

If they pop easy and dont get loud the subs might be out of phase. it will still read two ohms but one pushes when the other pulls, try flipping the wire on one end in between the subs

 

[mast240 10+ year member]

^^^ this could be another issue... if their in a shared chamber box.... might have some cancellation going on.

also... for your grounds... did you grind/sand down the paint where you bolted them down?? that can also cause a weak power supply sometimes

i would also take the cap completely out of the loop.... they can actually end up robbing you of power sometimes, if not installed properly.

the box that you have inst optimal... but it should sound pretty good.
