[QUOTE="<natem33>, post: 483"] I would reccomend an EQ to settle the highs down. That lacking mid bass is an issue that many people deal with because the highs and the sub bass drown the mid bass out quite a bit. The best alternative for that is to add mid bass drivers. Again, an EQ will help that some. The first time I added an EQ on to one of my systems it sounded like I added 100 watts to the bass plus there was a huge improvement on the rest of the SQ. Without an EQ, I too would think that your set up would be great. I wouldn't worry about the JVC amp for now, it should do just fine. I may not be reading your descriptions right, but did you say that you are running 4 guage power but only grounding an 8 guage ground wire? If this is so make sure that your grounds equal 4 guage. The only other thing that I can think of is that is it possible that you are expecting too much from your bass set up? The only other suggestion that I have is to bring your vehicle to a good audio installer/advisor and have them check it out and give you their advise. [/QUOTE]
