[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8414191, member: 650438"] 1: You lowered the gains to zero and you wonder why the subs dont put out anything??? 2: you have to set your gains correctly since this is a new ohm load. Here's a basic guide to do so properly instead of doing random settings.

Lower ohm loads give more power, higher ohm loads restrict power. 4: Your new subs might not even like the current box its in. For bass the enclosure is 70% of your sound quality and loudness despite what most newbs think.
