[QUOTE="Why So Cereal?, post: 7737744, member: 626047"] So, u didn't use a DMM or anything to set your gains? just set it to a random spot? Be careful with that. You'll probably wanna try setting your gain with a DMM method (search for the method, its been explained numerous times on many forums). The reason I asked about your gain is that , if u insist on using the loudness feature, you could back off of your gain a tad to compensate for the boost you're pushing through there, but if your subs start to sound crazy distorted or ya start smelling weird burning smells; chances are your gain is too high and the loudness feature is only making it worse and you're gonna blow a sub or both... its all in the box man. You can make any sub size sound good, if you do it right. Don't fall into the "10s hit punchy bass, and 15's hit low bass" crap that gets spread around so much. That's why we have ppl with no clue riding around with all different sub sizes and types for absolutely no reason. My local area is ridiculous with the 15s....they won't buy anything unless its a 15 b/c they don't know any better.... [/QUOTE]
