[QUOTE="AJM511, post: 7162962, member: 624777"] I have an mb quart reference 12" in a .75 cubic ft. box. The sub is 500 watts rms and 1000 watt max. I have a kenwood excelon amp rated at 520 watts rms and 1000 watts max. It seems like my sub is bottoming out alot. I have the gain about 3/4 of the way up. Is this just because it's getting too much power? or is it something else? Turning up the gain means giving it more wattage right? Is it getting 500 watts with the gain all the way down? I'm confused about that. When does it start getting more than the rms wattage? [/QUOTE]
