Setting Amplifier

[Ike_Turner]

I set my amp using the dmm method.. Ok so it says to turn off all EQ settings and loudness before setting voltage.. Will I be able to turn them back up without clipping the amp..

When set right, you probably won't need to use the loud or eq. If a song has weaker bass, I do use the low loud sometimes. How do you like those hds's?

And that was really my reason for asking because I only listen to rap and the bass in all rap songs sound different.. And they're great man.. I can't wait to see how they sound when they get broken in..

only on old classic rock songs do you really need them. Most modern day hip hop already has clipping in the amount of bass they squeeze in on the recordings. Using loud on modern music will be a quick death for your subs. Did you get proper voltage out of the amp?

Call whatever company mastered it and tell them you want more bass.

What level test tone did you use to set the gain? If you used a 0db or -3db you might have a little room to tweak it also if your running ported and have a subsonic filter on that amp play with that a little.

Re-master rhe mp3 using audacity. Up the bass or lower the bass frequency and lower the gain to get heavier bass without clipping
