[QUOTE="philmb, post: 8688699, member: 678398"] Hi all. I recently bought this head unit: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.pioneer.com.au/shop/car/fh-s725bt-2/#[/URL] I have wired a sub to the rear left speaker as per instruction manual and disconnected the Right rear speaker to. I have hard wired the sub to the harness so cant just turn the sub on and off. I want to turn it off as 90% of what i listen to is podcasts and dont want the bass when listening. So i just wired a switch on the the cable. OK, so when loud and music is playing it seems to sound ok, but there is not much sound going to the front speakers. When i turn off the sub there is barely any sound and when a call comes through on my phone its also very quiet. Not sure why? Also i have the head unit on network mode, when i put it to standard the sub is no way near as noticeable. Any ideas or what i am doing wrong - First time adding a sub. I know having an amp would be better but as i dont listen to a lot of music im not really that fussed and the stereo seems to power the sub fine, its just now my front speakers dont seem to be outputting much.. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
