[QUOTE="t-money, post: 5867066, member: 562029"] Like said before a remote bass knob and a bass boost knob are two different things. Kicker amps come with a remote bass knob, which means its a secondary gain for your kicker amp. I set my gain on my kicker amp with the bass knob out, after i set my gain correctly i put the knob in, now when the knob is at max its the same as if the knob isn't plugged in you're amp is playing where the gain is set. So all the remote bass knob does is lower your amp gain so you get less bass. I love the remote gain cause some cd's i listen to are taped bad, so i have my gain on the amp turned a little higher than normal, so when i play a bad quality cd i can have the remote bass knob up and when i play a cd of good quality i can turn the knob down so don't clip my amp.Bass boost knobs boost certain frequencies like said and thats bad for your sub, i don't use bass boost at all, but i can't live without my remote bass knob. Its like having the amp gain at your fingertips [/QUOTE]
