The sub does not hit at all, If I turn the bass setting up, it will hit pretty nice (for 150watts atleast) but then a second or two later it will cut out. I tried turning the gain down, but no matter how I set it, it will cut out unless the gain is basicly at 1/4 and evan then if I turn the bass all the way up on the head unit I won't hear it AT ALL..
I know it's not this sub that's the problem, because my brother has 2 in his car (both getting a total of 160watts rms combined) and I can hear him coming into the block, but then again he has a 400$ amp.
I'm not sure what the problem is, I have 8guage wiring..
some people say my head unit is not strong enough, but it's only 150watts rms I don't see why my head unit shouldn't be powerfull enough.
is that sub a dual voice coil or single? are you sure you have it wired correctly? if you have it wired wrong it will cause it to go into protection if you are running it at low impedence's below its capability's.
