[QUOTE="Jcdanible, post: 8512340, member: 669433"] Thought of a question while I'm waiting for my items to ship I wanted to tune my sub woofer and sub amp, although it'll probably change when I get my new head unit I figured I could at least tune the amp? It's a Rockford Fosgate R500X1D 500W Mono sub Amp. I was just wondering what steps I might follow to tune it. I tried looking up videos and just googling but my amp has a lot less adjustments then the ones people are using so It's pretty confusing on what they do or it just didn't really make sense. Also a question about RMS rating for the new speakers I bought the (P660C 6 1/2"" (160mm) 2-way component system) Wondering if you might be willing to go into depth on really what this means when looking at a product. I don't really understand what allows speakers to go louder or handle more volume with less distortion. Unless I'm wrong I understand that the higher RMS rating and senstivity in DB is what determaines the loudness as well as the amp. [B]But if you have an amp that perfectly powers a set of speakers what really does the sensitivity and RMS rating really mean?[/B] Peak: 540 watts per system / 270 watts each side | RMS: 180 watts per system / 90 watts each side Frequency Response: 45 - 23000 Hz Sensitivity: 94 dB [/QUOTE]
