[QUOTE="mindcrime, post: 874993, member: 560973"] Ok, here it goes. I have a 2000 mits diamante with a stock infinity system. 2 years ago I put in a Fosgate 301m amp, 2 fosgate 12's, and a q-logic box. I used a line out converter since I didn't want to change the HU. It sounded very good. I few weeks ago, my 6 1/2 door speakers blew, and I replaced them with 2 alpines. Then I figured what the hell, and changed the HU. I put in a Pioneer DEH-P7700. Since I didn't want to re-wire all the speakers, I got an adapter from Cardomain that connects my factory amp to the Pioneer. Now that it is all hooked up and working, the sound is not to good. My fosgate amp is hooked up to the sub output on the HU, I have bass, but it sounds "tight". I doesn't sound low like it used to. I adjusted the crossover to 50hz, then 80hz, and not much difference.
