Somethings Not Right

might want to use the source level adjuster to even things out so theres not a huge volume spike when switching sources.

My new player doesn't have a source adj. Neither did my other HU but my other had usb. I use USB 99% of time. The one I have now came in the car and about to get a diff player because it has no USB //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

im having a similar problem with my kicker ix1000.1.. i used the dmm and got it to 57 using a 50hz test tone cd and then i put my ipod on theres not really any bass at all cds as well i dont understand i even put the volume adjust all the way up to 6.. i actually just upgraded from the zx750 and the 750 i had no problems with and it was actually for 1600w rms subs and they hit wayyy harder than this ix1000.. for some reason i cant seem to get this to work right.. i have a jvc20bt

I always use -10db then go conservative for awhile and make sure the subs aren't doing anything wonky. my subs are in the cab with me though so I can hear if something weird is happening.

Im pretty sure its a 0db 50hz.. mine is in a suv and i can turn it all the way up and its really not that loud it doesnt really rattle too much. . I just dont understand it my old cvrs were so loud and were rated half the power of the kickers i have now

0 db will make you quiet on a lot of songs. use a -5 to -10db test tone depending on your listening preferences. Your problem just sounds like a gain adjustment+head unit settings problem.

That's exactly right A couple songs hit hard just most do not.. I listen to rap so what one should I do the -5 or -10? And the head unit could also be a problem there's too many settings.. Should I have my crossover setting for the sub set to through or pick a hz? 50 all the way up to 150hz is available.
