Posted May 22, 200520 yr ever since installing my comps. The sub's performance has taken a drastic turn for the worse. I set the gains correctly (w/ dmm) givin it around 600w, increased the bass volume a lil on the HU. When everything was all said and done, the subwoofer did not get as loud (my ears dint get used to the sub my rear view mirror did not shake at all like it used to) , and the sub did not play as low as it used to before installing my components.i played daz dillenger's "my system" and on the reallly low parts, my sub didnt play anything!! I felt no rumbling like i used to. I checked all the crossovers, filters and everything, but they were fine.I swear... either i fix this or im goin smaller subs with less power. sheesh...any help about what is going on will be greatly appreciated.

May 23, 200520 yr Author ooo RCA's are fine.found out the speaker wires were reversed i forgot what the term was (lil help!!) but the + and - were mixed up. everyhing works fine now!
May 23, 200520 yr one way to test that out is that if u mix them, touch the cables, if they get a little hot, then they are reversed.
