February 28, 200817 yr Picture of a clipped wave...Pretty much keep your bass boost on 0 and set your gains correctly (have a professional do it if you are lazy)

February 29, 200817 yr I'm not sure how the bass knob on your amp works, but Bass Boost meaning the potentiometer on the end of the amp. Some bass knobs might be a bass boost, but the Sundown 1500D has a remote gain knob. Basically, you turn the knob to full when you set the gain on your amp, then you can turn it down from the front seat.There are posts on this forum that discusses setting gains correctly, look around for them, and learn how to set your gains properly. Thats the key to keep your system working.
