November 3, 201113 yr I am very interested in the Leviathan-II. Sending a PM now.Wow, guess I won't have trouble selling it if I decide to go that route
November 3, 201113 yr Author Might be looking into a swap for a more efficient woofer if the HU doesn't help enough...
November 4, 201113 yr Great looking install in a great car!!what kind of seats are those?Hey thanks! They are Scat Procar Rally Seats, super comfortable and still lightweight!
November 12, 201113 yr Thing is, a 10" with 600 watts should be plenty for what he wants....I really think something may be screwy with the way the sub loads. I am probably going to have him try and secure a large board in front and see if anything changes.... Try and break up a mode that is causing this.Also going to have him move around in the back and see if he can find a real hot spot in output....See, I have never loaded a sub in a an open car that way, let alone in the middle facing forward. it looks really nice, but goes against my past success formula....Changing loading and listening around may be the trick... I dunno, we'll see...I had the same issue on my lumina when my Bl 15 was loading in the exact same way. When it was closer to the cabin it didn't have nearly as much output, but as soon as i would push it ALL the way back to the trunk (it would still be firing forward) it would come alive. It was a night and day difference, It was almost like someone had literally turned the volume up.I would try to push it further back and continue to fire forward, or have it fire rearward.Or you could seal the trunk from the cabin.. but that's a huge task.

April 5, 201213 yr So got my hands on the system today. Was a setting issue... Sounds great now...Great to hear! What setting exactly was it/what change to what setting did you make?
April 5, 201213 yr Is the owner from Seattle? If so we have a show in Olympia coming up, would be sweet to see this there!Aweseom install and car. Would love to hear it.
April 5, 201213 yr Author Amp was set up to use channel 1+2 as signal for 5+6 (sub), instead of 5+6 being driven by thier own input, so no real sub level control. Also, the Pioneer H/U didn't exactly have a sub adjustment, only an Eq with variable center frequency boost, kind of lame really. I also think there is something else wrong with the HU, no worries though, he gets a brand new HU today ot tomorrow.He is in Seattle, I'll tell him to check this thread...
May 16, 201213 yr Author New H/U in and everything sounds awesome...The Leviathan is a great amp.He got the bass bug now, I am building a box for a Mayhem 15 for his 4-runner. Power is Cresendo 3500... Stay tuned..
