[QUOTE="TheUnderFighter, post: 7623283, member: 631325"] No. You won't hear clipping, and you won't hear the distortion soon enough. The only reason to use the Bass Boost is if you have a specific frequency range that your sub drops off for whatever reason. Using it can easily introduce clipping and ruin your gear. The only way to tell properly where you [I]MAY[/I] need a boost, is with an RTA. If you don't have that, and DO want to keep your gear alive, then you should not be using bass boost. If you don't care about ruining your equipment, then feel free to use it however it pleases you. For the most part, if the system is too quiet for you, you need a better system. Things like boosting or turning up the gain, or whatever, are only temporary answers to poorly boost output, and shorten your equipment's lifespan. [/QUOTE]
