[QUOTE="audioholic, post: 4650013, member: 549629"] If your deck requires sub out to be set to max to achieve full output, yes. But usually I leave it at zero. If you are unsure, consult the manufacturer. So far as I know, the loudness feature in Pioneer decks works pretty much the same as a Bass Boost, except over a bit wider freq range. Alpine's BBE processing is basically the same as well. I admit I have used bass boost before, but very very limited. Old recordings with poor bass in them, or just times when I wanted to bass out without having to turn the system all the way up. But for the most part, if you dont know enough to need to ask someone if you should leave it on or off, leave bass boost/BBE/loudness off. [/QUOTE]
