Kyle Bronze Member Username: Motomattic3 Post Number: 55 Registered: Oct-06	Posted on Sunday, October 29, 2006 - 21:52 GMT my cross in on the amp was at 75 so so they switched it to 100 somethin and switched it to hp. I didn't even think to look at it. oh well its works great now.

Post Number: 3643 Registered: Mar-04	Posted on Monday, October 30, 2006 - 21:55 GMT he prolly wasnt clipping the amp. the amp was set on LP at 75hz. that means that the speakers were getting a signal w/ low freqency any they were over excurting. (is that even a word?) when they set the amp to 100hz HP, that cut out the low frequency signal.
