[QUOTE="sounds_explicit, post: 8366660, member: 665284"] ok because this is the first time ive went above 1000 watt set up. and they used to hit really hard now it seems as if i need to increase my amp settings , and im finding myself increasing things on my headunit to get the sound i had when they were new and i dont like to do that because i know that it will start sending dirty signals to my amp. i was thinking that i broke them in and now i need more power to get a good kick. or maybe my amp is just not powerful enough. i am probably running around 750-800 to each sub . they are 1200 rms, that is not underpowering them is it? i do have plans on upgrading my alt to maybe a 240 soon. someone mentioned to me that i may not be getting enough power from my stock alt and at a certain volume point i may not be seeing a increase in bass from my amp because the power is insufficient . but they used to slam pretty hard so idk. i live in a apartment complex and i never turn my system on here no one knows i have something in my car so id have to go somewhere to check everything out. i may redo my power and ground cables because ive had them for a few years now. they might just be bad cables. or a bad connection like you said somewhere.
