Rule #1 "There is NO such thing as TOO MUCH BASS." That device is EXTREMELY sensitive. You probably will be happy with it with the sensitivity control all the way down. If still too sensitive you can take the cover off and put a tiny piece of duct tape over the microphone. Good Luck. FEEL THE BASS!!!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Very sensitive. You will have no problems. In our RV, with the sensitivity adjustment in the middle, music off; just talking will make the lights react. One thing you're going to find out is that the IR remote control has to have a line of sight to the IR receiver within the unit. If you want to be able to use the remote, you can't hide the box under the seat with all the rest of the amps. If I were doing it, I'd hide the controller box under the seat somewhere you could aim the remote and make it react. What's a "sq junkie"?

I had 2 of them both were different in sensitivity. But one did fry on me. Soo far the second one is working great. The music does have to be loud for it to work correctly. It all depends on your placement of the device.

After ....... And I recommend Checking out Autotek 7007 this will change your music quality , but I still have my PAC knob but it's unplugged ! The Autotek has knobs SubSub bassMid bass Mid Treble and the blue light is very cool looking and had a built in crossover but if your using the Pac knob u will need two Couplers one for the head unit and one to the amp ..... U can email me if u like blessedwithfaith78 at gmail

I have the system set up in the sleeper of a big truck. It kicks butt. I have the sub woofer turned way down and it rattles the windows. I can only imagine it will do the same in a large room.

Does the CD tray respond? Does it open when it is supposed to? If you move the tone arm off it's rest post does the turntable begin to turn? If so the unit is powered up. Is the source selection knob not working? I hope you have better luck than I did with the unit I bought, I was profoundly disappointed with mine. The 2-watts per channel audio output was a huge disappointment. You won't get any "thumping" bass our of this unit. It doesn't distort, but has the sound of a 50's vintage table radio.Good Luck

Yeah they say it's stable at one ohm but when I hooked up two kicker 15" L7 dual 4 ohm woofers wired them parallel and the amp started smoking and shut off after a couple min. So I through it in the garbage and spent the money and got a Memphis 1500x1 and have not had any problems yet. Last DB reading was 144.8 in a jeep xj. Maybe I got a lemon amp or something but I will never waste money on a boss amp again it was really weak it's prolly more like a 500 watt amp not 5000 the Memphis 1500 walks all over it with out any problems

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?

Yes I feel that mine isn't that loud either and yes you could do another one and it should be louder and it will not hurt to your truck as long as you have a relay that can handle the power of both horns

i sold this sub. incredibly awesome sub. and i kinda had your problem. you have to fine tune the sub with your receiver. distance settings, double bass setting if you have it. basically have your receiver get all the bass to go to the sub and amplify the sub through the receiver as well. if your not using a receiver, then your doing it wrong bro. otherwise just mess around with the settings on BOTH sub and receiver to find the perfect sound.

Dual coil and It bangs hard I have two in a attrend box with some poly fill sheets lining it. I only have my bass on 3 of 10 and you can hear me blocks away. Chicagos feeling my bass.

I have that - but it is very slight. I mean, I have to put my ear right up next to the amp to hear it. I think what these other guys are saying is correct. I doubt it's your amp doing it on its own.

It is not loud. When I play live and plug in to the same D.I. box that other players have been using, my guitar can't be heard. I have to tell the sound person to boost my gain considerably, then it works. It seems a preamp is necessary.

what are you using it for? I could hear it from under my hood inside my truck but only when I wasnt moving.

Bass is great I have a 100 watt 8" Polk connected to mine. I don't turn mine up that loud, remember this is not a real expensive unit . If you want perfection spend more money.

The stomp button turns the eq on and off..I just leave it on. The eq adds a lot of control over sound. Btw it is noisy with distortion but isn't with clean channel. If your mainly using it with distortion I would check into a noise gate.

no it is not ...it has to play loud ever with the half power . Except if you loudspeakers have very low sensitivity ...lower than 85 db. Check also the settings of your phone and your pc , especial the phone volume could be lower when you connect it to headphones in order to protect your ears .Also try different interconnect cables sometimes they dont fit well. If it nothing of them then probably your AMP is faulty

Mainly its for awesome mid range , not for mid bass or anything a sub would play , but it very loud for mid range .. If you have a spl set up , you really should have this up front , sound stage ..... Hope that helpz
