Just installed this with a BOSS CX122 sub (1400 watts). The sub isnt blasting. I have everything turned up all the way. I am using a LOC. Whats wrong?

Check your LOC unit and make sure its connected and setup correctly. Everything on your amp should not be turned up. Put the low pass to the mid point, "mode" set to low pass, sensitivity might be 100mv-2v(check on the loc), and the level should be at the mid-point at most. Also make sure your subs are wired and connected correctly, for the appropriate power. You may want to Contact a local shop for further troubleshooting.

Never turn it up to 100%, it will be boomy and heat the amp up. I would think these things have smart protection circuitry (besides their fuse) in them to prevent catastrophic failure. Just adjust it starting mid way ~50% and go higher until you find that sweet spot and only you know what kind of sound you are looking for. Remember to adjust the frequency to take some of the boom out of it too. You should have one sweet sounding sub when done correctly.

I have the same set up and it matches the subs perfectly, ohms and watts, this means that you basically cant blow your subs, the amp does a run alittle warm when your bumpin but doesn't get extremely hot. One of my friends bought the same subs and is running them on a 1200 watt amp and it hits hard! Even though he runs the risk of blowing his subs, some idiot cranks hit gain up all the, Im still considering getting a 1200 watt amp and selling my amp. Basically you can get this amp and match it perfectly to the subs and not have to worry about blowing them or you can get a bigger amp and have some serious bump in your trunk and keep an eye out for your subs to blow.

Check fuses first. Then look at you high pass, full range and your low pass switch. Sensitivity also. Also your level min/max settings. If all else fails, contact planet audio.... they are great over there about walking you through installs.

the amp is at 4 ohm load, 2ndly are you asking about the implications of series or parallel hookup, hook it up to stay at the 4 ohms,= series. read a bit on the net about series & parallel. try them one at a time, noting amp temp,! aka does the fan come on? mine never did, so if yours does your pulling serious juice & sensitivity how much pre-amp line voltage required. are these subs or full range & are they in stock cabinets?

I run a mtx jackhammer on mine in 2ohms running 600 RMS all the time. This sub will take the power. You willve working that amp. It will push the sub...but maybe for about 4-6 months before heating issues take its toll. It will work...but I would put a mono or 2 Chanel amp.

I have the same set, and the sub is under-powered compared to a lot of other speaker systems. However for me the bass is good with no problems, you might have received a damaged unit. The board and controls are "IN" the sub container, so they get hit by the air passing by. But I would contact Limitless Creations and see if they will replace it as a damaged unit.

Keep in mind that you can't hear an amp. You should check your decibel output and match it up with the decibel output of your sub! This sub does sound very good and does have excellent response!

Ive had 2 of these for a year and half they are badass. I personally use a 40 amp breaker to run them. Pullin roughly 600 watts. I used 30 amp fueses and would always blow them when the bass hit low. P.S this is for 2 subs at 2 ohms make sure your amp will handle this and dont try to put 600 watt to one sub. You will blow one in a heart beat. Been there done that. Haha.

I have mine set at 60,0" phase and ~100hz on bypass and I've had no problems. What amp are you using to drive it? I listen to lots of heavy bass music and can easily drive myself out of the room if I crank my amp so the question is--? what do you want to do the heavy lifting. The amp or the sub?

Are you turning the gain ALL the way up? This can easily cause distortion. Even if your sub can handle the amp at max, it will still cause distortions because the amp or any modern amp, aren't meant to be maxed out. The gain must be set properly. You can do it by ear. There are a bunch of tutorial out there.

Probably worth buying a more advanced subwoofer.... Thought mine was but unfortunately my RCA connection to my subwoofer did not work so I tried connecting my subwoofer to my two front speakers. Don't know if that is the proper way but that thing is delivering a thumping bass

You push that sub to the limit now its busted or if you just got it new and its busted. Return it!

Mine did the same thing. Not sure if it's a good/bad thing but the amp is good. Hope this helps

Probably time to upgrade your sub. Most receivers use a lfe port to connect your subthis unit doesn't offer high frequency connections for subs. Only to your speakers.

rms runs at 350 and peak is 500 ive got it running a infinity 12 inch home sub and it pounds the only thing is the pluging doesnt stay in it wants to unplug if you move it at all.

If it is hooked up to a system. The problem could be that the power cord and aux cable are tan to close tohether. The static from the amp turning on runs through the cable and gives a pop or thump sound through the sub.
