[QUOTE="donmcgowen, post: 8515687, member: 660141"] The car is a 2013. New battery. The gains on the amp are about half. Bass on the stereo is at 0. Subwoofer level on stereo about 4. There is a separate knob from the amp for bass, that is also half. If I turn this down anymore I won't be able to hear it. Ive run a 4 channel Pioneer amp with half the power and it was just as loud. I never had a problem with any other amp. I've had the Pioneer and an RF Punch 250 no problems. Its just kind of ridiculous to have all the gain and bass set soooo low. How do I know if they are clipping? They sound fine and I'm not pushing them that hard at all. I know plenty of people run these Hifonics amps and can push them. The Type Rs should be plenty of speaker. If this is the case I should just double the power and get a Brutus 2400 and turn the gain and bass all the way down. [/QUOTE]
