    Rockvilles 800w 10” super slim (6.86cm/2.7in) is only $149.95 and it has its own built in amp. They’re a good company I’ve run them for a few years now.

    Mate, turn the gain down to about 70%, you'll have a much cleaner sound, especially at higher volume.

      You can't just guess at an arbitrary number like 70%. It all depends on the source voltage level. Trial and error will determine where it needs to be set.

      @@giggsl5011 Not so much quality, but signal strength. A gain knob is like a ratio adapter. If your signal going in is not strong, you can adjust the gain high and not have clipping. If you feed in a very strong signal you might need the gain turned way down.

    • @shane35fowler
      @shane35fowler Рік тому

      Just no... you match your gain to the cleanest input signal. If your radio puts out 4V clean at max volume you set the gain to 4V if it puts out 2.65V at 60% volume you put it at 2.65V

    Thanks for this video
    You mentioned put the 50 Hz will that enhance the bass also someone said lower the gain to 70% is that will make it truly mild and clean when I up the volume!?
    I bought one called d class isudar good quality one since a year or so, it sounds good
    But i could know what the correct adjustment i should use with it 😢
    I installed it correctly but the base controller light isn't lighting anymore since before what could it be wrong!?

    I wish you can help me out solving this issue
    Thanks 🙏

    • @budget4x4life
      @budget4x4life  Рік тому +1

      Hey matey. It comes down to your headunit. The amount of gain is the amount of bass you want your sub to take over. If it is at 70% it will only play that amount through the sub and the other 30% through car speakers. That will make it sound nice and clean but everyone has different taste of how much bass is enough 🤣

    • @budget4x4life

    You'll probably want the crossover set around 80hz low pass, not 50 for that sub. You'll definitely not want the phase set on 180*. Leave that to zero. At 180* it is out of phase with your other speakers and will not sound as good.

      ​@@Mike.D.843The phase setting will be different in each installation. Thats why they make it easy to switch it. You have to try both and pick the one that sounds better.
      You also need to set the crossover by what sounds best. You can not rely on the markings by the knob.

    • @unstopology
      @unstopology 10 місяців тому

      This^ Phase changes where the sound wave starts because if your mains and your sub starts at the the same wave position, they cross (phase) each other out. Even the crossover depends on what main speakers you have and what your settings are. I usually prefer setting my sub to only handle 60hz and below so it's not so boomy.
