[QUOTE="bs199sg, post: 8370225, member: 662511"] I am using 4 gauge wire for my sub amp and another 4 gauge wire for my 600 watt door speaker amp. I now realise that I definitely need batter cable. I was thinking of [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_46862_NVX-XW0BL20.html"]NVX XW0BL20 20 ft. of Blue EnvyFlex 1/0-Gauge Power/Ground Wire Cable[/URL] or [URL="http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_92029_Qpower-0GAMPKITSFLEX.html"]QPower 0GAMPKITSFLEX 0 Gauge Super Flex Amplifier Wiring Kit for[/URL] . Someone mentioned "The big 3 upgrade". Would I need to do somethign like that or is the power cable good enough? If max power is not what should be thought of atm, and rms is... the sub amp on a 2 ohm load for the subs and itself can run "2 Ohm: 950 Watts RMS / 1900 Watts Peak x 2 Channels". That is plenty of rms for my subs (one is 600 rms). The subs are in the enclosure that my 1st system came in: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006OSNHWA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1"]Amazon.com : Package: (2) Pioneer Champion TS-W309S4 12" 2800 Watt Peak / 800 Watt RMS 4 Ohm Car Stereo Subwoofers + Dual 12" MDF Vented Subwoofer Enclosure + Dual Sub Box Enclosure Kit With 14 Gauge Speaker Wire + Screws + Spade Terminals : Vehicle [/URL] So if what you say is true about the enclosure, what should I do? Get or make a new one? I NEVER play bass boosted music. It sounds too bassy. i like my quality and power. I listen to some Tech N9ne, a lot of dubstep and a lot of heavy metal (Five Finger Death Punch, Iron Maiden, Metallica, etc). The gain, I just checked is on its middle position (left is -10 db, middle is 0, and right is +10 db). After doinf what you said to adjust gains, what is the next step to make my system sound really good? A quick question...hypothetically, is it possible to get 1 of my subs to sound wayyyyy better than both? [/QUOTE]
