1407, Need better bass Posted by black95esi, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
okay right now i am running 2 kicker comp 12's in a sealed box with 300 watts runnin to them. This gives decent bass but not nearly enough for me. Could anybody help me get better bass. or just tell me a different setup to go with cuz i have a friend that will buy my system from me so i can get a whole new. let me know thanx

2 12's should be plenty for big bass, unless you want to make windows shatter! I would keep the speakers, and make sure that the box is designed for the speakers(airspace needed), and then go get a very powerful amp. I would put at least 300 watts RMS to EACH sub, and be sure its a clean, true, 300 watts. You will be pleasantly surprised...

Hey man... that Legacy amplifier on the subs needs to go! Make sure you get a quality power amp with lots o' power.

More Power. Band Pass Box. Some sort of crossovers, i use an equalizer which has a bass boost and sub controll.

Deffinatly get rid of that amp I wouldn't even use it as a paper weight.. get a real amp like US Amps www.usamps.com then if it still isn't to your likeings port the box.

I'm jumping on the bandwagon...DITCH THE POS AMP!!!!! Once you get a real amp, definitely drop an active crossover in the mix so your subs aren't seeing any mids or highs. The crossover alone will do wonders for your sound. Just make sure you get quality components though. As always, You buy K-mart, you get K-mart!!!!
