[QUOTE="Stingerssx, post: 8576885, member: 659199"] Well, ok, let's start with I have no idea how to post a picture..... Usually I don't have this problem in forums, but I guess this forum is special.... Whatever.... What I wanted to post is a picture of my gain setting. But that's neither here or there..... Now, THANK YOU so much for the wiring diagram. I pulled the white wire (ANC) from the front plug, and I unplugged the module under the rear deck. I still have the same problem. So I started messing with the levels. Ok, so here's where it gets weird. I can turn up the LC7i until the "MAXIMIZE" light comes on, then I try to back it off, and the light won't turn off until the level is turned WAY down. I've tried that MULTIPLE times. So, if the light comes on at say 95%, it won't go off until under 20%. I brought the levels to about 94% and left them. Then I turned up the amp gain to about 50%. The bass is the same, only louder up until 15. Then it still levels off and above 20 starts to go down. Now, I can turn down the sub on the HU when it's too loud, right? No, now I can't turn up the sub more than -3 or the bass just distorts. Well, it doesn't distort, it just seems that the woofer is extending past it's excursion limit. I currently have the L7 in a .65-.7 cuft sealed enclosure. No poly fil. Maybe I'll try that. I have the day off tomorrow, so I'll see if I can mess with it a bit. I'm thinking that I may just be stuck with this since I'm using the factory HU. [/QUOTE]
