[QUOTE="stangman67, post: 7017469, member: 607236"] wtf are you talking about? That makes no sense. Don't give advice on stuff you do not understand. OP, it is all about setting your gain correctly. You should out your gain to 0 on your amp and the sub level to 0 on the hu. Put in a good quality cd and turn it up until your speakers start to distort. Turn it down a few clicks. Then start turning up your gain on the sub amp gradually until you hear traces of sub distortion, then back the gain off a bit. BTW 80hz is where you should be at, do NOT set it to 60hz unless you have some serious midbass drivers that can play with authority that low which I am seriously doubting. After this do not touch any of the settings, bass boost, gain, bass speaker setting etc. You will start clipping the sub if you do and this spells an early death for your sub. [/QUOTE]
