I’ve always used the factory one, I think it’s a must to have a bass knob especially if your running more power then you need
Correct can't just slap all the time. 1200rms 1ohm is fun but not all the time.
@@timcahill7792 facts bro. I love bass, but if you're always at 1200rms, then 1200rns will become the "new normal".
I agree!! Different songs on my system I turn it up or down so I only run with a bass knob
Any plans on developing a Bluetooth version of a bass knob? Not only would that make mounting a breeze, but eliminate mounting restrictions and allow for wireless control outside the vehicle.
Factory, because I want the clip light up front because making sure my gear is running clean is more important than looking cool to me. :-)
Exactly
But the aftermarket only go up to what you have it set on the amp
@@simonarredondo6718 that’s with every bass knob lol
Right?
Set the gain correctly and u shouldnt ever clip. Bassknob maxed out when u scope it or dd it
I use the one that came with my Rockford Fosgate prime 1200.1d. I removed it from the case and built a custom panel that houses the knob as well as my voltmeter in the ashtray in my truck.
Those Amphenol RCA's on the Bass knob are actually the best quality. I use the male version to build my own RCA's all the time. They're also expensive
I just purchased the JP23 and it has the best Bass Knob in the game. 👍
Where I can perch those bass control knob
Got the dark red one,I love it,super nice construction and accurate
I use the factory knob. Just because it was easy and I paid for it so I'm might as well use it.
If it ain't broke. Don't fix it.
Where would you put this big ass knob anyway?
@@62dobie that’s what I’m tryna find out am I supposed to put this shit in my cup holder
I think the red wire would be remote it and yellow remote out and black ground because the bassknob has a on and off switch. Unless the red is constant powered and inside the knob somehow cuts the remote power off.
I use the clarion equalizer for my bass knob plus adjusting mids an highs
I'm saving up for a green one! Like candy 🍭
I have a question I don't know if you know the answer but, do manufacturers swap location of the cat cables to stop other cat5 five or 7 knobs from being compatible that is the only thing I could think for them not to work. The cables are standardized so the only thing that would stop them from working is the locations of the wires when they are pressed I would assume.
Been using the factory knobs in my builds up to this point. But now that I'm looking to run multiple amps using an RCA splitter it just makes more sense to use 1 really good RCA bass knob to control all 3 amps at once instead of running and installing 3 separate wires and factory knobs then struggling to shut the bass down while dealing with the popo
2. Alot of the factory bass knob just control bass boost instead of gain, which is a big no no. And also if u have rca outputs on the amps u can daisy chain them together instead of using splitters. But if you have to use splitter i suggest a rca distro box insread of y-splitter.
I use the acr3 with audio controls dm608 for a bass knob. Easier way to control multiple amps mids amps highs amps and of course bass amps. Has 4 settings only unfortunately but best believe I use all 4 depending on if it's SQ mode or go deaf spl mode. Works for me anyway
Jp..top of the morning!
By any chance they make dual bass knobs in the metal? I run dual bass knob and that would look bad ass for my set up. If not when are they coming out with dual?
Great video
I used a Slam Panda knob. Lasted almost a year. Then got a spl cartel knob, and it's starting to go out after 9 months. Idk if these aren't good for daily use or what but I've spent almost $400 in bass knobs🤦♂️
Factory JP23. Very good knob but the light is extremely bright. You should try and install a dimmer on the next version.
I like to use aftermarket one because it feels nice to have a bigger and better feel to it. I use an SPL Cartel knob
I have a jp43. I have an RCA bass knob from droppin Hertz that I was gonna use. It's been laying around for a while. Wasn't sure how it would work with the Bluetooth knob. Should I stay away from that RCA knob with my jp43? Sorry if I misunderstood what u said in the video. Just making sure
is there a difference between the phone cable bass knob vs rca bass knob? is one better than the other, other than its just cooler?
Will yall be selling replacement bass knobs and cat 6 cables for the d4s amplifiers?
Really like my JP8 bass knob!
Had to tint the screen. Lol
That shit was BRIGHT!!
I still have green 1 i love it bro
said like a true G. 💯💖
The factory is all I've ever had. Never had a chance to get anything better, soon hopefully!
Does the 3d subwoofer bass knob give u the choice to shut off also or no. And if not then is should lol
@JP will you guys make a v.2 metal bass knob that has a clip light?
Will the metal bass knob work with any amplifier? I'm guessing it will because it has the wires and everything and won't have to go through the rca
Don't know if I will get a answer because this is old but,what I was trying to figure out is, do you still set the gain on the amp or just leave everything turned down
Can I cut off the 3.5mm jacks on my knob? It came with a Loc it plugs into but I don’t have rca on my subs, onky speaker wire inputs so I can’t use the loc for the knob to then plug into, so I need to find a way to attach my controll knob some how, was thinking I could cut off the end of the knob which is a headphone plug 3.5mm standard plug. But then what would I wire the wires to,
prob go for the jp63 in the build I'm working on possibly the 83 depends on specs when they do come in. will go nicely next to the jp234
Holy knob🔊💥
I use the one that came with my jp8
Clip light number one!
very nice bass knob
I have the green one and my rca fall out easily and they are the turn locking one's
Wen is the revision number 2 of that sub bass knob coming out?
Wouldn't this work on a Taramps HD3k MD3k Bass3k and up??? Because they do come with the clip power protect ect led lights but no gain / bass control... But the amp is sending the information to that light.. and a cat 5 should fit... But if the knob won't work for em.. do you carry the Sundown Zv5 woofer knob?? Like this one??? I like those it looks cool lol
When will they make one to adjust your low pass
can you leave the Cat 5 Base knob still plugged in so you can see your clip light and temperature
I've always heard it's a bass knob, earlier today someone said it was Gain control and now i don't know if i should bother with it. Is is actually a Gain remote? Sounds counter productive if that's actually what it is... why take the time to tune everything and then screw it up by playing with the gain. Please tell me dude was wrong. I trust JP more than random guy online, but yeah.
Word. Thank you so much, i appreciate the clarity... Super helpful
What he said. Gain on amp is max itll go. Knobs allows u to turn that power down not up
because in the route of it, that knob is actually physically acting as a volume knob, you've already tuned the amp to highest level and the knob is just lowering from there, that's why you can have you knob "only half way up" but there's people that think they know what they're talking about, but will say doing that off your amp itself is different, even if you've already figured out that clipping is a certain spot and anything below that isn't. this knob is like turning your gain down on your amp but when you turn it back up, it'll only raise to the point of where the gain on the amp itself is set at.
I use the d4s bass nob. It's the best in the game. What other one has a temp sensor on it? And clip light? And volt meter?
deaf bonce for starters, had it on their amps for years now.
I had ordered one an the bass nob never work so I just keep my factory one but don't get me wrong d4s for life
I use a potentiometer from an electronic supply store, wired rca’s into it and hid it in the back of my console. I like everything to look factory and not advertise a system in my ride. Those knobs look cool, but too big and bulky for me, also my car has a voltmeter so I’m good.
Actually I was going to get the d4s jp23 because of its bass knob now idk what tf I'm going to do, but ty
What cord do I buy to plug nto my amp and the bass know.. the cord that has rca jacks
Just recieved my slam panda knob today!!
Can you offer them with super long leads 7ft option would be great
Wen are those subwoofer bass knobs coming back in stock JP????
I’d take after market if they have voltage and clipping on them my ds18 amps have two different indicators for clipping but not voltage 1 for amp other for subs but bass knob that came with has nothing just knob
Yes my bass knob is on the left of my steering wheel ...
My voltmeter is in my cigarette lighter
Having all the displays in one place is definitely 👌
Can you use one for a skar amp?
Whens the v2 of that subwoofer bass knob coming
can I use a knob like this with the JP83 ?
Ive used Pac lc1 for years
Bass control 👍
But will it work with my Petras Q1?
Can we get a skar audio line up?
how do you Tune With a Bass knob like that? same as usual? Find max volume of regular speakers....Turn Gain on amp down... Turn Bass Knob All the way Up.... then turn the Gain on the amp up untill you start to hear Clipping...then back it off slightly?
X2 bass knobs= MOOOREEEEBASSSSS!!!!!🤤🤤🤤🔊🔊🔊
A wireless would be Kool. But you have a line driver. I have always used the line driver, cross overs so I can control all of it
I would love a bass knob that has a clip light for the input and all the other current features
You can use both.
huh are you saying there's a bass knob that has a clip light on the incoming and out going signal id love to see it
@@418lightning8 sorry I misread what you asked, lol. Good idea tho, and I'm sure it's 100% easily accomplished
Does the bass knob connect the same if I am using a bass processor?
Yes, all this does is cut the audio signal down
Only way I’d switch to that little sub is if it had the options the JP23 knob has. The clip light and volt meter is too useful to give up.
So it won’t work with the jp23 amp?
No way JP thanks for the explanation
Need a bass knob with a tweeter built in
I use my JL knob for my 600/1 xd jl audio amp
No shit canned the the one that came with the salt 4 sundown because it is so bright. I am trying to figure out a way to mount just a clip light by itself on the dash so I can have that, but use the RCA style with a potentiometer on it would be nice to have the voltmeter as well, but the factory ones no aftermarket yes
What brand is that Bass nob can anyone can help me
Where I can purchase
I have a aab 500.4d would it be able to power 6 m65an ?
Yes but not to potential. I have 8 af on that amp. Screams. Btw join the deafbonce usa fb page. Loads of answers
Skyhigh clear green loom rca bassknob on sundown rca 1 in 1 out(mono)
But anyway your metal knobs look like vapes 😂. That's pretty cool. Now it would be nice to see the subwoofer design in metal instead of plastic.. and it would be cool to have a few diff woofer designs like NSv4 and team and a X and Z and SA and like a Skar VXf and SA n X 8" looking one. Those would be cool because the woofer style knob would match the subs / Sub you got... And also maybe a knob that looks like amps would be awesome
Sa series sundown
V series for sure too
And the Amp is such a great idea !!! Maybe a machman alternator next ? Or a lil lithium battery? haha with 3d printers the possibilities are endless
I bought a sky high bass knob and it crapped out in less than 6 months. I’m gonna have to switch to d4s metal knob.
I'd love to have a d4s subwoofer bass knob with clip light and volt meter for my cab 45. Maybe 1 day. 😎👍👍
How is that cab45? Been looking into buying one for awhile now. I am on the fence between cab45 and the Taramps8k or maybe 12k.
@@maximilianmellick459 My cab 45 is great. Will be ordering a 2nd 1 soon so i can have 1 on each of my subs.
They are in a completely different class then those taramps so idk what to tell ya especially if you're looking at amps that much bigger then the cab 45.
so your subwoofer bass knob does not work any other name brand amplifier's?
I don't have a bass knob for my system I would like to get one
Jp my profab has come apart at the seams and I was told to put screws into a 600 plus box by your employees not a happy camper. I'm running 4 q class 12in d2's and in the video it was stated that u can use up to sundown u series subs. Whats going on buddy.
Hey Jp you should do a bass knob give aways on F.b.
Nothing wrong with a good ol PAC lc1
I use flush mount for my wife she don't like the hand held lol
Niceee
Kids these days are so spoiled “In my day we had to get out the car at the stop light run back to the trunk and turn the gain down or up from the amp then run back before the light turned green”!! lmao 🤣 jk
I like sub looking one.
😍
Inline pac knob
aftermarket LC 1
Is this you DOWN4SOUND who I was talking to on Facebook
Nope
i think you meant to say red accesory, and yellow constant
Factory. I'm a cheap bastard. Lol
PAC=lc1 inside a Niki logo that I made
I think i like that now
So it's not a speaker...huh...looks like one but not one. Cool though!
No bass nob
100 bucks for a bass knob? ohhhh...... i think i'll pass on that.
Maybe lower your prices, can’t bring myself to pay $100 for something I use once a day if I’m lucky, lower your prices!!!!! Cons!
