Car audio gurus needed

Have you tried that amp in another car?

No. Since it worked with the other subs I took that as a good sign.

So now the guy with line arrays as an avatar is going to pretend he knows something about gear?

I can get that when he gets home. Heck I can even do video!

Un-enable it.

All that's coming through if LPF is enable is top end stuff. And that's not going to move a sub speaker.

I tried it both ways but Ill double check where it's set currently.

And the same goes for the sub or at least the exact model number.

You know what. I have the dumb....ignore what I said. KSouth was right. LPF should be on. I was thinking gate, not pass. LPF cuts out high end and lets PASS the low end. That's why it's called a "low pass" filter. Long day.

My son has an issue with a Kicker TC10 sub in his Mustang. He has a basic Kenwood head unit with 3 separate RCA outputs for front and rear speakers and a separate RCA output for sub. He has two amps. One is a 1000 watt Pioneer which is feeding his front and rear speakers. They sound pretty good and have been installed for several months. This weekend we added a 500 watt Pioneer amp and bridged it to power a Kicker 10" sub box. The Kicker sounds very faint and kind of "fuzzy". We swapped in a friends cheap Dual brand 10" sub box and it thumps away like a redneck version of freaknik. Swap the Kicker back in and low static-ish sound and fuzzy distortion. His brother has the same amps and Kicker sub in his Tacoma and it sounds pretty good. So we swapped the same model Kicker TC10 from the Tacoma into the Mustang and experience the same low static-ish sound and fuzzy distortion - we know this sub is good. The Mustang Kicker sounds great once connected in the Tacoma as well. My question is WTH?!?!!?

*After all this we connect the cheap Dual sub back up and it sounds as it should. What am I missing here?

I have heard that Mustang...
He doesn't need a stereo & speakers, since he has the built in 4.6 V8 sound system!!

Just listen to the engine, that's what I do!

Worked with lots of gear, Meyer is just about the best!

Meyer makes top end stuff for sure.

Now he smells coolant when the AC is on. I assume that’s going to be a heater core. Drop by and supervise! We need all the help we can get.
