New member Username: Redsfan16Post Number: 1 Registered: Nov-10 | I have one 10 inch pioneer championship series pro sub in a ported box and the bass is loud but it doesn't kick at all, i guess you call that distorted? My amp is a Pioneer mono 800 watt max, and im pretty sure it is set to 400w x 2 but i don't know how to find that out or if it is automatic with your sub and radio. My head unit is a Pioneer also so how should i set the amp and radio to where the sub only kicks to the low bass and doesn't rumble to the high bass. my amp has a ; LPF switch (On/off), LPF knob (40hz-240hz), gain(6.5-.2, bass boost (0, +6, +12), My head unit has bass (0 - +6), Sub w.1 (-24- +6), sub w.2 (50hz-125hz), equalizer (5 band), hpf (off, 50-125), and loud. How should I set these to get a nice kick (i am tired of the loud distorted high pitched bass i have it set to) it doesn't have to be that loud just to where i can hear a nice low kick, rather than a high rumble. so basically my questions are: 1. how to tune this entire system? (please and thank you) 2. does a loud rumble where all the bass is the same, mean distorted? 3. the box is ported and i'm pretty sure that it is a big problem (even if the amp and everything is low, it still makes an annoying rumble). anything i can do to fix that or will tuning help? 4. Can i add something to the box, or do anything to seal it? 5. Lastly how do i know whether my amp is set at 800w x 1, or 400w x 2 or any of that? please help i hate this annoying rumbling and i want a kick to the system? thank you also my car is a suv and it is in the back |

On your amp, turn low pass filter switch on, turn the knob to 40 htz, gain all the way up, bass boost 1/4 of the way up. And about the wattage... Is it a 2 channel bridgeable amp? how do you have it wired? how many vc and what ohm on your sub? |
